Not really but this title seemed cooler.

Halloween night at Hugh Hefner’s not-so-humble abode will still be filled with all the usual suspects - scantily-clad costumed women, bopping blonde bunnies, a Haunted House and Hollywood’s hottest stars.

But while the 31st of October itself isn’t an official Hugh Hefner party, for this year its going to be even more special as the men’s magazine mogul is handing it over to help those who’ve served their country.

SLIDESHOW: Hugh Hefner partying with his many lady friends.

"Hef was kind enough to let the Wounded Warrior Project be a beneficiary on Halloween. Proceeds will help severely wounded veterans that have recently served in Afghanistan and Iraq," Executive Director of the Halloween 09 bash Jose Dominguez told Pop Tarts. (General admission tickets start at $1,000 and go up to $15,000 for VIPs.) "Halloween is the most sought-after night at the Mansion so it was a good opportunity to support our veterans and enjoy a great party at the same time."

We’re also told over 40 wounded soldiers will also attend the scary soiree.

Then the article just goes into that shit show, girls next door.

I wonder how much of that money is going to the wounded soldiers.

Knowing how much of a philanthropist Heff is, probably a lot of the money. The advertisement for the wounded warrior program alone in Hollywood is a real statement, you wouldn't see this at something like a Rosie O'Donnel banquet dinner...

I don't always agree with some of Heff's stances on politics, but I do believe that overall he does a lot for the charities he contributes to.

Wow the army should really consider this as a recruitment tool. Fight for America and get a free night at the Playboy mansion. Sign me up!

But only if you get shot... Not such a great recruitment tool.

Wounded Warriors going are probably amputees though, so not the best recruitment tool. Wounded Warriors is not just the Army either...
