DAY 22! TINKERBELL!

Tinker Bell is a fairy who is Peter Pan's best friend. She is the friend who helps him in his escapades.

Though sometimes ill-tempered, spoiled, jealous, vindictive and inquisitive, she is also helpful and kind to Peter. The extremes in her personality are explained in the story by the fact that a fairy's size prevents her from holding more than one feeling at a time, so when she is angry she has no counterbalancing compassion.
Her extreme loyalty and dedication to Peter is everlasting.

“When the first baby laughed for the first time, it’s laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies”
- Peter Pan

DAY 21! PETER PAN!

Peter Pan is a character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie. He is a magical boy who can fly and who refuses to grow up. Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood playing on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his gang, the Lost Boys.
J. M. Barrie may have based the character of Peter Pan on his older brother, David, who died in an ice-skating accident the day before his 14th birthday. His mother and brother thought of him as forever a boy.

“It is not in doing what you like, but in liking what you do that is the secret of happiness.”
-Peter Pan

DAY 20! GENIE!

A Djinn or “jinni” in Arabic, is in Arabic lore, a type of interfering spirit, often demonlike, but not equivalent to a Demon. Djinn are self-propagating and can be either good or evil. They possess supernatural powers and can be conjured in magical rites to perform various tasks and services. A Djinn appears as a wish-granting “genie” in many Arabic folktales such as those in The Book of One Thousand and One Nights.

In pre-Islamic lore, the Djinn are malicious, are born of smokeless fire, and are not immortal. They live with other supernatural beings in the Kaf, a mythical range of emerald mountains that encircles the earth. They like to roam the deserts and wilderness. They are usually invisible but have the power to shapeshift to any form, be it insect, other animal, or human.

The Phoenix, in ancient Egypt and in Classical myt

The Phoenix, in ancient Egypt and in Classical myth is a fabulous bird associated with the worship of the sun. The Egyptian phoenix was said to be as large as an eagle, with brilliant scarlet and gold plumage and a melodious cry. Only one phoenix existed at any time, and it was very long-lived—no ancient authority gave it a life span of less than 500 years. As its end approached, the phoenix fashioned a nest of aromatic boughs and spices, set it on fire, and was consumed in the flames. From the pyre miraculously sprang a new phoenix, which, after embalming its father’s ashes in an egg of myrrh, flew with the ashes to Heliopolis(“City of the Sun”) in Egypt, where it deposited them on the altar in the temple of the Egyptian god of the sun, Re.
The phoenix was a symbol of immortality, eternity, and resurrection. #31daysofhalloween #mythicalcreatures #phoenix #31daysofhalloweenmakeup #mua #samaralandtv

DAY 9! THE DRAGON! 🐉

The dragon is a mythical creature typically depicted as a large and powerful serpent or other reptile with magical or spiritual qualities. Although dragons (or dragon-like creatures) occur commonly in legends around the world, different cultures have perceived them differently.
Chinese dragons, and Eastern dragons generally, are usually seen as benevolent and spiritual, representative of primal forces of nature and the universe, and great sources of wisdom. In contrast, European dragons, as well as some cultures of Asia Minor such as the ancient Persian Empire, were more often than not malevolent, associated with evil supernatural forces and the natural enemy of humanity.
The most notable exception is the Ouroborus, or the dragon encircling and eating its own tail. When shaped like this the dragon becomes a symbol of eternity, natural cycles, and completion.
Dragons are commonly said to possess some form of magic or other supernormal powers, the most famous being the ability to breathe fire from their mouths.

DAY 8! THE FAUN!

The faun Is a mythological half human–half goat creature appearing in Roman mythology.

More commonly affiliated with the Satyrs of Greek mythology than the fauns of Roman, they are bipedal creatures with the legs and tail of a goat and the head, torso, and arms of a man, and are often depicted with goat's horns and pointed ears. These creatures borrowed their appearance from the satyrs, who in turn borrowed their appearance from the god Pan of the Greek pantheon. They were symbols of peace and fertility. Ancient Roman mythological belief also included a god named Faunus often associated with enchanted woods and a goddess named Fauna who were goat people.

Pan, the most famous faun, is also a healer. He will often give travelers dreams on how to heal a sickness they have encountered. He is also the protector of the woodlands, wild mountains, hunting, and shepherds with their flocks. #31daysofhalloween #mythologicalcreatures #faun #31daysofhalloweenmakeup #samaralandtv

DAY 7! THE SIREN!

The Sirens were singing enchantresses capable of luring passing sailors to their islands, and, subsequently, to their doom. Daughters of the river god Achelous and a Muse, they were fated to die if anyone should survive their singing.

The term "siren song" refers to an appeal that is hard to resist but that, if heeded, will lead to a bad conclusion.

By the time of the Renaissance, female court musicians known as courtesans filled the role of an unmarried companion, and musical performances by unmarried women could be seen as immoral. Seen as a creature who could control a man's reason, female singers became associated with the mythological figure of the siren.

DAY 6! SILVER BANSHEE! Siobhan McDougal was the f

DAY 6! SILVER BANSHEE!

Siobhan McDougal was the first born child of Garrett McDougal, the patriarch of a clan of old Gaelics that resided on an island halfway between Ireland and Scotland. The clan had remained stationed there for a thousand generations. The island held the Castle Broen, the battleground for the first born McDougals to battle for the honor of leading the clan. It was a ritual as old as the clan. It was extremely important to all who reside on the island and one Siobhan only paid heed to as part of her family lore.

She left her clan at an early age to travel the world. She had grown tired of life with the clan and needed an escape. She had remained away for an extended period of time and only returned when she received news that her father had died. Upon her return, the proceedings for the next ritual were already underway. She was told by her uncle Seamus that she was not to take part. He didn't want a woman to be clan leader.

Siobhan took this as an affront and decided to do the ritual herself, alone. The ritual involved calling forth supernatural forces for power. She almost succeeded but her brother Bevan inadvertently interrupted her mid-ritual to disastrous effect. The forces consumed her, and dragged her into the Netherworld.

In the Netherworld, an ancient being known as the "Crone" granted her power and a means to return to the land of the living as the Silver Banshee. She demanded repayment in the form of an occult book that had belonged to her father. Upon her return to her clan, she discovered her father's books were shipped off to the States to be sold. Thus her journey brought her to Metropolis. Not one to be delayed, Silver Banshee killed any and all who stood in her way of finding the book.

Silver Banshee’s “death wail” can immediately kill anyone she knows the identity of. She is the executioner of man.

DAY 5! POISON IVY!

What happens when you mix betrayal with an undying passion to save the Earth? You get the Floral Femme Fatale.

Evil has never been so seductive as it is in the form of Poison Ivy, who uses her own natural pheromones to control whomever she wants. Her additional ability to control the floral life around her gives her an instant army against anyone who tries to stop her, as vines and plants attack whoever is foolish enough to get in her way.

The beautiful villainess is not a criminal in the traditional sense, but an ecoterrorist determined to push mankind out of the way, so plants can rule the planet she believes has long abused them. But Ivy has also proven herself compassionate time and time again, especially toward other women who have been victimized.

DAY 4! CHEETAH! Archaeologist Barbara Ann Minerva

DAY 4! CHEETAH!

Archaeologist Barbara Ann Minerva always had a reputation for going to any lengths to retrieve the artifacts she was after, no matter the risk. Her attitude, unsurprisingly, resulted in tragedy. After growing increasingly obsessed with mythology and divinity, Barbara Ann took her team deep into the wilds of Africa, only to be trapped and forced to participate in an ancient, arcane ritual that cursed and transformed her into a human-cheetah hybrid with a lust for blood.

Once a friend of Wonder Woman’s, Barbara Ann blamed her transformation on Diana’s inability to save her, and harbored a grudge against the superhero that drove her to the point of madness.

DAY #3! HARLEY QUINN!
Sometimes love can make people do crazy things. Other times? It drives them completely insane. Such is the case with Harley Quinn, formerly Dr. Harleen Quinzel. A promising psychologist and intern at Arkham Asylum in Gotham City, Harleen was given the chance to get up close and personal with the Joker, an experience that wound up ending…badly. Harleen became obsessed with her subject, and after falling madly in love with the Clown Prince of Crime, she helped him escape the asylum.

Her love for the Joker inspired Harleen to adopt a new identity, that of Harley Quinn, The Joker’s sidekick-slash-love interest—whether he wanted one or not.

In time, Harley came to realize the Joker was holding her back, and she struck out on her own. She became an entrepreneur and a member of several slightly less-than-reputable super teams.

After all, as Harley would say, if you're going to go a little crazy, you may as well sit back and enjoy the ride! #31daysofhalloween #dcbombshells #harleyquinn #samaralandtv

WELCOME TO MY 4th ANNUAL 31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN!!!!!

WELCOME TO MY 4th ANNUAL
31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN!!!!! 🎃
DAY 1 RUTH BADER GINSBURG!
I got a bunch of requests to do this one and it only seemed fitting to start with Judge Ginsburg...
She was born Joan Ruth Bader on March 15, 1933 (Pisces!!) in Brooklyn, New York. Her father was a furrier in the height of the Great Depression, and her mother worked in a garment factory.
Bader graduated from Cornell University in 1954, finishing first in her class.
At Harvard, Ginsburg learned to balance life as a mother and her new role as a law student. She also encountered a very male-dominated, hostile environment, with only eight females in her class of 500.
The women were chided by the law school’s dean for taking the places of qualified males. But Ginsburg pressed on and excelled academically, eventually becoming the first female member of the prestigious legal journal, the Harvard Law Review.
Ginsburg transferred to Columbia Law School in New York City to join her husband, where she was elected to the school’s law review. She graduated first in her class in 1959.
Despite her outstanding academic record, however, Ginsburg continued to encounter gender discrimination while seeking employment after graduation.
After clerking for U.S. District Judge Edmund L. Palmieri, Ginsburg taught at Rutgers University Law School and at Columbia, where she became the school's first female tenured professor.
In 1980, President Jimmy Carter appointed Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. She served there until she was appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1993 by President Bill Clinton. The second woman, and the first Jewish woman to be appointed to The Supreme Court.
As a judge, Ginsburg was considered part of the Supreme Court’s moderate-liberal bloc, presenting a strong voice in favor of gender equality, the rights of workers and the separation of church and state.
She was the first Supreme Court judge ever to preside over a same sex marriage.
May her memory be a blessing to all of us...

100 years ago today. The 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was formally certified on Aug. 26, 1920, after decades of struggle by suffragettes. It states, “the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.”
The date is marked in the United States each year as Women’s Equality For the women’s suffrage movement, the amendment’s ratification was a realization of the Constitution’s first phrase, “We the People” Photo by @nightwine
