Reprise … Just because it’s that time of the year and it’s a classic shot … 

Some bunny got dressed for RFH Halloween 1977 — or a few bunnies and other assorted suspicious characters, that is.

The Halloween spirit was in the air, that’s for sure. And this senior gaggle of girls embodied it. From controversial, yet timely and popular, Playboy bunny costumes, to Raggedy Ann, a ghost, a cat, a gypsy and whatever else, they were parading and pleased with their choices.

Then they benched themselves for a little haunting respite and pose. But, surely, knowing this crew, there was some mischievous haunting to come. They weren’t done.

So, in honor of all things ghoulish or just plain prime for this time of year, the Retro Pic of the (George) Day offers a glimpse back at the RFH festivities.

It was always all in fun, no matter the costume, for RFH Halloweens. As I recall, no one flinched over the Playboy bunny costumes, either, or much of anything for that matter.

What’s taboo now? Popular? What were you for Halloween back in those RFH days?

Scared o’ you!
