I wonder how many of those costumes were designed by Rarity, and what she thinks of them. Does she like doing crazy designs for Nightmare Night, or is she disdainful of them?
I'm going to guess that Derpy designed her own costume.

Rarity lock herself just like F Lutershy, but for another reason, she could not stand all those amateur costume desings
They are like the others. Strange, hideous, resisting, fighting. Only these were not like the others. They did not die.

Well that was a pretty decent episode.
I was rather pleasantly surprised by the way they went with Luna's personality (though I guess now I'll have to endure fan fic authors having her speak entirely in capslock).
I'm still kind of scratching my head at how Twilight seemed to be the only one who recognized Princess Luna for who she was. I mean it's not like she wasn't introduced to the whole town that one time by her big sister.

Rarity was in it and interacted with Luna but that part was cut out.

OMG this was so worth the wait!
There's not much about cannon Luna that I can say that others already have said, but Jebus H. Webster I loved her!
I loved everyone who appeared. Even Pinkie Pie. She was just getting into the spirit of things, and probably didn't realise that she was hurting Luna's feelings.
And I knew Pip would have an important role to play!
WE ARE A HAP-PEE BRON-EEEE!!!
I ship Pinkie & Mac...trust me...I know what I'm doing.
Tealove is best pony.

WE HAVE JUST WATCHED THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE BECAUSE OUR MOTHER WOULDN'T LEAVETH US BE OTHERWISE. WE LIKE THIS EPISODE. QUITE SO. HAMMY LUNA IS BEST LUNA.
WHAT WE DONOTLIKE IS ALL OF YOU TROPERS TAKETH SUCH SADISTIC JOY IN INSULTING FAN FIC WRITERS.
WE LOVE FEASTING ON THE RAGE-INDUCED TEARS OF FANDUMB AS MUCH AS ANYPONY ELSE, BUT THERE BE-ETH A FINE LINE BETWEEN "WE KNOWETH NEXT TO NOTHING ABOUT PRINCESS LUNA'S PERSONALITY OTHER THAN THAT SHE DOTH FEEL REMORSE FOR HER ACTIONS, SO LET'S TRYETH TO MAKETH SOMETHING HEARTWARMING FROM IT" AND "HOWDARETHHASBRO DEFILE THE PERSONALITY OF MY SHY MOE WAIFU!!!!!!1!11!!ONE!1!!!1ELEVEN!!!11!!!1" SAYING THAT YOU REVEL IN THE SMELL OF A THOUSAND FANFICS BURNING DOTH MAKE THYESELVES LOOK LIKE TOTAL DOUCHEBAGS. VERILY, WHAT HAST HAPPENED TO "LOVE AND TOLERANCE?!"
There's a way to rationalize Canon!Luna with Progress!Luna. Canon!Luna's hamminess is how Luna is like when she's confident and/or trying to conceal her various insecurities.
Also, another perspective: rather than refute fanon, canon!Luna is a combination of all fanon!Luna. Thus, all fanon is correct.
PRECISELY! DUE TO THE COMPLEXITY OF OUR FAVORITE FICTIONAL EQUINES' CHARACTER TRAITS, COMBINED WITH THE SHEER LACK OF CONCRETE CANON BEFORE THIS EPISODE, THERE ARE STILL PLENTY OF THINGS FANON COULD BE RIGHT ABOUT. UNTIL LUNA SHOWS UP AGAIN, WE WILL NOT KNOWETH FOR CERTAIN.
Then again, Fanon usually s death of fun so...
I don't hate it YET, but I've never cared much for Derpy, so constantly seeing her get pointlessly shoved in our faces might get kinda annoying after a while.
So...at one point pip says "Scary but fun"
THEY KNOW

I think someone should have tried scaring Luna in this episode.
I'd have loved that!
I'm not satisfied with this episode at all (but if I'd voice that the mob'd lynch me). But teaching the most frightening mare about the fun of being frightened (and Halloween) would have made a lot better plot, I think.
There are so many cartoons about the meaning of Christmas, one about Halloween would've been awesome and original.
