Here are some Halloween Text Messages and Quotes we found on the web that you can send to your friends in the Phlippines this year.

This Halloween the most popular mask
is the Arnold Schwarzenegger mask.
And the best part?
With a mouth full of candy
you will sound just like him.

This the night – the night
Of the grave’s delight,
And the warlocks are at their play;
Ye think that without
The wild winds shout,
But no, it is they – it is they.
Happy Halloween!

From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!
Happy Halloween

Just like a ghost,
you’ve been a-hauntin’ my dreams,
So I’ll propose on Halloween.
Love is kinda crazy
with a spooky little girl like you
