Hey guys,

Anyone have a cute little you've been boo-ed poem that they want to share? We had it done to us last year and it was so much fun that we want to start it this year. Thanks!!!
 
The air is cool, the season, Fall;
Soon Halloween will come to all!
The spooks are after things to do,
In fact a spook brought this to you!
"Boo" is a shield of the witching hour,
Just hang it up and watch the power!
On your front door is where it works;
It wards off spooks and scary jerks!
The treat that came with this cryptic note,
Is yours to keep, enjoy them both!
The power comes when friends like you,
Will copy this note and make it TWO!
The others here among our friends,
Will give them warm fuzzies that will not end!
We'll all have smiles on our faces,
But no one knows who "BOO'ED" whom!
Just two short days to work your spell,
Or one big ZAP will strike your tail!
And don't forge a nifty treat,
Like something cute and something sweet!
Please join the fun, lets really hear it,
spread the "BOOS" and Halloween SPIRIT!


A friendly ghost has come your way
To wish for you a wonderful day.
He left a small gift and something sweet
Never heard him come cause he's light on his feet.
You must be light on your feet too,
Cause this is what you have to do:
Choose two friends, and choose them well.
Now this is a secret, you musn't tell.
Copy this poem, and the sign twice,
If you do it by hand, make sure it looks nice.
Take a couple of gift bags down from the shelf,
Or a plain paper bag, you can design yourself.
Fill them with sweets, and a gift of your choice.
Leave em' on your friends porch,
without any noise.
Hang this sign on your door, for all ghosts to see.
They'll know you've been "BOO-D",
and will leave you be.
This is only a game, to have a little fun,
Let's see how far it goes, before the month's done.
Now you have 48 hrs. to visit your friends.
Please don't be the cause of our games early end.

Happy Haunting
 
We actually got booed for the first time ever last year and booed about 2 dozen people in return LO, my daughter and her friend just loved doing it..
We gave a bunch of things- pop rocks, that sugar junk in a pack with the stick you dip, pixie sticks, reeses peanut butter cups, hershey bars and a bunch of other candy.
The bag we got had reeses peanut butter cups, snickers, nutrageous, hershey kisses and some other candy like swedish fish and chewy stuff.
 

Thank you so much. Loved them both.

AprilGail2, you made me laugh. We got it for the first time last year too and made up several.

We want to get it going early this year so it has time to make it around. I am thinking next Monday. What do you guys think?

We got candy and trinkets. We also got halloween socks.
 
I actually used Dapperdan's for the neighborhood and changed one of PrincessMomma's to work for an office environment. I decided to start it going Oct 1 (tomorrow) so that more people can get involved. Can't wait. I packed Halloween lunch sacks with goodies for the office including a 2.99 battery light up carved pumpkin. For the neighborhood, I packed the same things but used plastic trick or treat pumpkins instead of the sacks.
 
so glad you started this thread! we love boo-ing but my computer crashed last december and I just realized I don't have my poem any more!
 
I love Boo-ing!! I woke up this morning really excited for 2 reasons..
1. It's the first day of my favorite month
AND...
2. It's Boo-ing season on the DIS!

Yippee!!
 
I love that you are booing in the office.

gave me an idea, maybe boo some of my sahm friends.

yeah, I get way too into this stuff. lol. I can't wait to get started.
 
I found out yesterday that they do this in our apartment complex. I am very excited to see it but disappointed that they picked our neighbor, she almost never leaves her house so it may be days before she discovers this and somehow I doubt that she will participate. :confused3
 
I had never heard of it until last year. You drop off some goodies and a note like the poems above. You also provide a picture of a ghost or a saying like "we've been BOO'D and tell them to put it on their door or front window so that others realize that they have already been boo'd. Ring the door bell and run. You don't want to be caught as the mystery really makes it fun. I am probably older than most of you and we use to make May baskets and do the same on May 1 (May Day). I have been complaining that it was fun and they never do it anymore and then this BOO happened.

I am actually the one that created beenbooed.com and I got a lot of request last year to make an office environment one and have it say "I've Been Boo-ed" instead of "We've Been Booed!".

I am going to go ahead and work on it tonight since a lot of people seem to do it in the office. Any other suggestions that might need to be changed for an office version?
