Once upon a time, Halloween was a kids’ holiday.
In the past couple of decades, adults have adopted it too.
But the gang at the Brook was ahead of the curve.
This was Halloween 1980, at Westport’s famous gay bar. (Before its demolition in 2010, it was the oldest continuously operating gay bar in the country.)

Today, the Cedar Brook Café has been replaced by Patio.com.
And these Halloween revelers of yore are now AARP age.
