I don't know if it would be a horror story but I, too, was a collegian during the "theme-party" heyday (Disney-themed events were extremely popular).
Anyway, we did a "Sound of Music" theme, which we called "Sound of Alpha Phi." The songs were beautiful and moving, which is more than I can say for our Maria Vontrapp-inspired costumes. If you recall, Maria used drapes to make outfits for herself and the kids. Staying true to the storyline, our dresses looked like they'd been made from drapes. At the time, it seemed like a cute and fun idea. In retrospect I think we might have come across to the potential new members as bag-ladies.
