Not dressing up this year, but I am wearing an orange shirt with a jack-o-lantern face on the belly.
Haven't ever pulled a prank. I grew up as little miss goodie two shoes lol.
My best costume I'd have to say was when I was Mrs. Bates aka Norman at a Halloween scavenger hunt where I hid behind a bloody shower curtain and came after scavengers with a plastic butcher knife. I love scaring people, but I hate being scared. I refuse to go to haunted houses or watch scary movies.
I have a fear of bees, but am also terrified of losing loved ones.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? Sometimes. Like if my daughter wants to be something, and we can find matching costumes easily, then yes. Last year, at age 3, my daughter wanted to be Louise from Bob's burgers. So it was super easy for me and DH to dress up as Bob and Linda with her.
Also, sometimes we wear costumes at the school I work at, and I try to stick to literary characters.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? Nope.
What has been your best Halloween costume? College, my and my roomie were Wayne and Garth from Wayne's World.
What are you most afraid of? Pinocchio. (Dolls and the like. But Pinocchio is the worst.)

I don't dress up for Halloween. I didn't celebrate it as a kid and I've never gotten really into it.
I've never pulled a Halloween prank.
Best Halloween costume was probably a zombie costume. DH and I put on face paint and used blood capsules and it wad creepy. Either that or a DIY super girl costume.
I'm also scared of bees and of dogs. And of course the big stuff: disease, death, hunger, etc. But I think OP was going for something lighter.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? I try to make some sort of effort every year but only go all out if I have a party to go to. This year I'm thinking of wearing a T-shirt I have that has a ghoul on it and maybe I'll wear a hat or something. Boring but it's something.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? I dressed up like a man with a long beard and intercepted my BIL's Thai food delivery so I could be the one to ring the doorbell and was going to just act weird when he answered the door. I can't even remember what the details of my plan were but it failed miserably.
What has been your best Halloween costume? A few years ago my husband and I won best costume as Mary Poppins and Bert. Another favorite of mine was when I was Anita from the game Guess Who. It was kinda annoying because I had to carry around the white frame all night but people loved it.
What are you most afraid of? Bears! I like to pretend I'm not afraid but every time I'm on a hike I think about what I'd do if I saw a bear and then I freak myself out.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? I don't usually and am not this year. I do wish I had at least bought a Halloween shirt though.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? No.
What has been your best Halloween costume? Ummm I don't dress up that often, so I can't remember one right now lol.
What are you most afraid of? Dolls. I freaking hate them. Those Annabelle commercials scared the crap out of me.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? I normally do, and like @JenniatONU said, if I can find something cute and easy to coordinate with my girls, I will. Last year, we had a Wizard of Oz theme where Abby was Dorothy, Hannah was Glenda the Good Witch, I was the Wicked Witch of the West, and MH was the tornado. (He covered a trash can in grey, black and white tulle and put little lego people/furniture in the tulle-it actually turned out pretty cute). This year, I've totally slacked as the girls are old enough to pick what they want to be, and don't coordinate, so I probably won't dress up.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? Not that I can think of. What has been your best Halloween costume? Six of my very good friends have an Irish band and have a big Halloween show every year where they dress up and play songs related to their costume. One year, before I was married and still lived in Iowa, a few of my friends and I got together and dressed up as them. I also made a super hero costume that turned out pretty well that I wore another year. What are you most afraid of? On a serious note, losing family/friends, all the typical illness/accients, etc. On a lighter note, I hate bugs (in my house, they tend to not bother me when camping), and apparently I have trypophobia, which is the fear of holes. Things like this:
gross me out beyond belief.

Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? Not this year (or most years).
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? Not that I recall.
What has been your best Halloween costume? I won best costume for a homemade Birds costume. I had tangled hair, bloody early 1960's clothes covered with tiny peck holes, and birds attached to my hair/clothes/body. I also loved my Get Smart costume with a functioning shoe phone (a walkie talkie with a cordless phone antenna coming out of a shoe - the heel of the shoe swiveled, which exposed the mouth part of the walkie talkie).
What are you most afraid of? Probably snakes and spiders.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? I can't remember a year that I didn't dress up lol This year I am a kangaroo with a joey in the pouch (don't mind the bathroom selfie lol we had a costume contest at work. This was also our announcement (the sign says arriving may 15, '18)
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? We've done a haunted house at home, but that's about it
What has been your best Halloween costume? I love random or punny. One year I was a bag of oranges (took the big net bag that they wrap christmas trees in and stuffed it with orange balloons and me!) another year I was '50 shades of gray' I need to find the pic of it but I had on a 2 tone gray shirt, a masquerade mask and I covered myself in gray paint samples/chips lol like I said, I'm all for punny
What are you most afraid of? keeping it on the lighter side of things, spiders and injections (I can live with blood draws and iv's, oddly enough)

@ladystinson that is such a cute costume. Love it.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? Not as much now that I'm older. I have a crab hat I will put on my head when kids come to trick-or-treat. I've never had trick-or-treaters before bc it's our first house. I am excited
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? Nope. I would love to scare/prank my husband, but I am bad at it.
What has been your best Halloween costume? I really liked my mermaid costume for the Mermaid Parade in NYC a few years ago. Also, I was impressed I wrangled like 8 friends into going and dressing up. It was a win.
What are you most afraid of? I absolutely hate airplanes. I have panic attacks when there is turbulence. Considering I like to travel so much, I really need to see a hypnotist or therapist, but thinking about talking to someone about my flying phobia gives me anxiety.
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? Sometimes I do, but this year I had no energy to put into it, so I may just wear my Dodger jersey tonight.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? No. I am super boring when it comes to that stuff.
What has been your best Halloween costume? DH and I were Fred and Wilma Flintstone one year and dressed up as people from the Rockland Peaches another. Those are my two favorites for sure.
What are you most afraid of? Falling off of something really high up, needles
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? - Not unless I'm going to a party... and I haven't been to a Halloween party since 2012...
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? - No, I don't really like pranks.
What has been your best Halloween costume? - I dressed up as Meghan Rotundi from Felicity. Mostly a punk outfit with a hand drawn barcode tattoo on my chest.
What are you most afraid of? - Some sort of disaster happening and not being able to get to my family due to traffic, etc. I got stuck in traffic during a snowstorm last December and it took me 7 hours to drive the 17 miles home from work and it pretty much scarred me for life.
We're dressing up as Wreck it Ralph (hubby) Vanellope Von Schweetz (me) and Fix it Felix (DS). We look pretty awesome and I absolutely love making costumes, sewing is my thing!!!
Ive toilet papered a few houses in my day...but recently we acquired 70 pink flamingos and we sometimes "flock" people's yards, friends so we get them back of course!!
My best costume??? That's a toughy...I love all of my zombie costumes, and one yet I was a pretty convincing Willy Wonka. Purple top hat and everything!! Oh an drew one year I was a 60's waitress with a HUGE beehive hairdo that was just amazing!!!
Most afraid of: bees and wasps. I'm not allergic I just don't like stinging insects!!
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? Currently teaching my Core 5 class dressed as Princess Leia. The whole team dressed up as Star Wars characters and my hair made Princess Leia super easy. I also went as an OREO a few days ago for a party.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? I don't think so? But we did wrap the "sarcophagus" in the history room in toilet paper today and truly "mummified" him (it's actually a set of bookshelves but I'm super jealous of it either way-it likes like it belongs in a museum)
What has been your best Halloween costume? One year my husband and I went as Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara. We had every single piece of the outfits and it was amazing. That was our first Halloween together and that's when I knew I"d keep him
What are you most afraid of? This is a weird one folks. Fish. I hate fish. I don't mind eating it but live or dead fish that look like fish, move like fish, slime like fish, or anything I can't stand. It's totally irrational but I get scared swimming in lakes or the ocean even because I'm afraid they'll touch me. Again, no idea why as I don't have a traumatic history with fish, but it just has always been a thing for me.

Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? I normally do. It's my favorite holiday because we weren't allowed to celebrate it until I was 12. I didn't dress up this year though, too tired, and didn't go to any Halloween parties.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? Nope, boring kid here
What has been your best Halloween costume? First Halloween together I was a cop and SO was a convict. We waited til the last minute to get costumes and neither fit us properly, so we had to add random stuff from our closets.
What are you most afraid of? Spiders. Needles. Dying alone. The dark. And And and and...
Do you dress up for Halloween? If so, what are you dressing up as this year? yes, every year but we slacked this year and didn't figure out costumes, do just the kiddos are dressing up.
Have you ever pulled a Halloween Prank? If so, what did you do? we did a little thing when we were young, mainly to friends houses though, nothing truly mean!
