Halloween Is More Fun When You're Older

Chuck and Beans have the right attitude about Halloween- it becomes more fun as you get older, and not just because of the skimpy outfits and laughing in the face of death, but because kids and pets are so darn cute in their costumes, and after trick-or-treating ends you get to eat whatever's left in the bowl! Note to self: buy extra candy this year...

A zombie walks into a comic book store and scares the living daylights out of the clerk.

When the clerk calms down he tells the zombie "Hey, we have a few comic books named after you, wanna buy one?"

The zombie replies "You have a comic book called Gyaaaaggghh?!"

Disease Awareness Via Gross Looking Cupcakes

Cupcakes seem like the most unlikely way to spread knowledge about diseases such as herpes, lung cancer and foot fungus, but try telling that to Miss Cakehead, the creator of these disease ridden delights, and you might go home with more than you bargained for.

Miss Cakehead wants to use word of mouth, as in put these delicious works of anatomy art into your mouth then tell others how good they were, to spread disease awareness.

Sounds like a good idea, if people can bring themselves to eat these gross looking things I'm sure they'll spread the word!

Undead Johnny Cash To Play A Show In Brooklyn

The Man In Black is back from the dead and ready to rock a show at Brooklyn's Jalopy Theater on October 27th, as long as his rotting limbs hold out.

Okay, it's not actually Johnny Cash, but rather a performer named Steve Sasso who'd clearly been out drinking all night when he came up with the idea to perform as a zombified Cash.

Sounds like one hell of a show though, with hits like "I'll Eat Your Brains" and "Die, Die, Die" the fans are sure to litter the stage with undergarments, and body parts...

A Couple Of Johnny Depp-O-Lanterns

The Dark Shadows and Sweeney Todd movie adaptations have one major thing in common- Johnny Depp.

The iconic actor has such a recognizable face, no matter which character he portrays, that he is a perfect subject for pumpkin carvings. 

The first jack-o-lantern is rather simple, yet you can still tell quite clearly that it's Johnny playing Sweeney Todd, and the Dark Shadows themed masterpiece on the bottom looks like someone took Mr. Depp's head clean off and dyed it orange. Squash-tacular!

The Ultimate Tusken Raider Kid's Costume

Let's face it- most Tusken Raider themed kid's costumes pale in comparison to this epic getup created by super dad Ward Jenkins.

Whether it's the attention to details, clever use of well-made accessories or the acting skills of young Ezra those other Sandpeople wannabes can't hold a candle to this amazing act of kid's costuming!

The Best Silent Horror Films

Halloween is the time to watch horror films, but there are some old ones that you probably haven't yet seen, because they go back over a hundred years! Balladeer's Blog has a list of 31 silent horror films going back as far as Georges Melies' 1896 short film Le Manoir du Diable (The House of the Devil).

Unless an earlier example turns up this is the very first horror movie with a semblance of a story. This 3 minute film from THE Georges Melies features the Devil setting up housekeeping in a creepy mansion and conjuring up his infernal lackeys like witches, goblins and a living skeleton man to keep him company. Much as the early film world owes to Melies we all know if you’ve seen one of his flicks you’ve seen them all so this will be the last work by him that I cover for this list.

PS. This movie is available at YouTube.

Gimli, Son of Adorable

I don't know that having his axe will do much to help protect the realm, but at least he's sure to slay any scary ring wraiths with pure cuteness.
