Millenials may not know the name, but anyone who grew up around or before the 80s knows the name Tom Selleck, aka Magnum P.I. aka the man with the sexy moustache.
Everyone should aspire to have a child as handsome as Tom, so why not give them a helping hand with an adhesive moustache or, better yet, a manly moustache pacifier?
Monsters are everywhere, on every continent and around every corner, and it appears that even in Antartica no one is safe from those things that go bump in the night.
Miss C bravely researched ten native baddies from Antarctica and Australasia, posting her results over at Mental Floss for the good of all mankind.
Remember, intrepid monster hunters, knowledge is power when it comes to keeping yourself safe from the clutches of a slavering monster!
Delving into the dark side of Hollywood movies tends to have pretty predictable outcomes- people are caught unawares by monster, monster attacks, someone trips as they're running, the killer is either silent or full of one liners, etc.
But here's a list of facts, some very obscure, about your favorite fright inducing films, facts which may leave you with a better appreciation for these films as you imagine what could have been...
Those who dare to venture into haunted theme parks around Halloween tend to agree that the best part of their walking nightmare are the terrifying mazes found throughout the parks.

Watch them with the lights on, where people can hear you scream...
Halloween costumes weren't always an excuse to dress super-sexy. Collector's Weekly looks back at very un-sexy costumes from Halloweens of the past. These are more creepy, weird, and/or just plain goofy. Of the twenty images in the gallery, this eyeball may be the weirdest. Or maybe it's the telephone heads. Or maybe the Depression-era Mickey Mouse. Anyway, you can decide which is the weirdest. Link
YouTube sensation Krispy Kreme raps with a southern drawl and tells endearing tales ranging from raunchy to mad real.

John Carpenter may be Hollywood horror movie royalty, but he's not looking so good these days.
He must be going broke, or hitting the sauce a bit too hard. Why else would he agree to host a bunch of ridiculous Halloween themed videos for Funny Or Die?
Oh, how the mighty have fallen...

Doggy cone collars are so bland, so Musha's owner decided to jazz it up with some Death Star inspired graphics, transforming his dog into an interplanetary killing machine!
Little Musha doesn't look too put out by the collar, perhaps she's plotting her revenge against the humans responsible for the enslavement of her head...

Knott's Berry Farm theme park is transformed into Knott's Scary Farm every year for Halloween, and this year Knott's is celebrating their 40th anniversary with lots of thrills and chills, including an Evil Dead themed Log Ride, 13 terrifying mazes and 4 zones of horror around the park.
With all the costumed creeps lurking around, and the horrific decor throughout the park, the entire place is transformed from a Snoopy themed happy place to a dark playground for monsters.
Just because Star Wars cosplay is extremely popular today doesn't mean people weren't dressing up like their favorite characters when only one or two of the films had been released.
Star Wars has been big from day one, especially as Halloween costume inspiration, and every kid with space in their head and a bunch of tinfoil was trying to make their own R2 unit.
Check out all the groovy getups in this gallery of retro photos and you'll discover that Star Wars cosplay has come a long, long way since the good old days!
Some of these scary dog costumes aren't really that bad, but others really are the things nightmares are made of -take this human mask for example. Yikes!
