Parade was a ghastly good time

The 41st Annual Greenwich Village Halloween Parade once again scared up a huge crowd and a ghoulishly fun spirit along Sixth Ave. last Friday evening. Whoopi Goldberg was this year’s grand marshal. A Day of the Dead float honored artist and entertainer greats lost over the past year, including Lou Reed, Maya Angelou, Robin Williams, Joan Rivers and Gabriel Garcia Marquez. A Haitian Gede contingent blew up a spellbinding storm on their horns. There was an outbreak of Ebola getups, plus the usual army of demons, devils, superheroes, giant puppets and assorted unearthly characters.
