Oh my gosh, I LOVE Casper! When I was tiny and used to be terrified of ghosts, my mom used to make me watch that show because he was a “friendly ghost” LOL! He's just adorable. x)

This Halloween thing is so much fun! And you + that cool/semi-scary pic = pure awesome, Missie! :)

You are so NOT alone. I had a crush on Casper, too. And when he turned into Devon Sawa at the end of the movie? Smaller Small was totally swooning.

I did not have a crush on Casper…I thought he was lame….sorry Casper lovers…..but I did love Bruce Willis in the Sixth Sense though, even with the balding hair…:D

I had a crush on Devon Sawa too. I wonder whatever happened to him. By the way, the buttons for the giveaway are so freaking cute!

“Spirit Week”…I love that pun! :) In terms of cartoon character crushes, as a kid I wasn't too fond of Casper. Aladdin, on the other hand…

No way! I loved Casper too! I wanted my own Casper.

Ooo I did see that series as a child. That was ages ago! Never saw the movie, hmm. I was in love with the Ghost in the tv series: the Ghost and Mrs Muir. Anyone ever saw that oldie?

Tina, I'm with you. I didn't like Caspar. Too cutesy and not scary at all! I want my ghosts creepy and spooky!

Totally crushed on Casper after the movie with Christina Ricci came out. I think I was like 11 years old and I can even remember exactly what movie theatre I went to see it at. LOL! Now though, ghosts scare me shitless. I have issues. :D

Casper is MINE! Oh wait… no body there! LOL

You are a rockin' vampy girl to take some time for the one's with essence! :D
