Finding the best places to trick-or-treat is serious business for kids all across the United States. And now, thanks to the people at Zillow, locating the most Halloween friendly cities in America is a little easier with the recent release of their fourth annual trick-or-treat index ranking the 20 best cities for collecting the most ghoulish loot.

Drivers earlier this week in Portland probably did a double take at a construction road sign. The electronic construction sign read 'warning zombies ahead!' The sign was suppose to read, 'Night work 8pm to 6am expect delays'. This was an early Halloween prank that did not amuse city officals.

We've all been there -- just a couple hours before you have to head out to a Halloween party, and you haven't had the time or money to put together a decent costume. Then suddenly, a flash of inspiration zaps you or one of your buddies -- but all too often, the final product is just sad at best, or lands you in the slammer.

The best part about Halloween is the pumpkin. On a nice fall day you head on over to the local pumpkin patch and pick out the perfect specimen. Then you and your friends or family get together to carve your masterpiece and cook some delicious pumpkin seeds. Choosing the perfect method to carve your pumpkin is key, so we came up with 10 ideas you may not have thought of for how to carve your pumpki

Since Halloween is only a little more than two weeks away, it's high time we all immersed ourselves in something scary and spooky. To that end, we present a truly frightening mashup of the 'Ghostbusters' theme with Psy's monster hit 'Gangnam Style.' You might not think they'd go well together, but somehow they do.

There’s one single treat in the history of all candy deliciousness that makes us feel so torn. Candy corn -- we hate to love it and love to hate it. How is it possible it can taste so bad, yet be so irresistible? It’s a Halloween trick AND treat. (See what we did there?)

Halloween isn't just about candy and haunted houses—it's about creating lifelong memories with your kids.  You can take them to a pumpkin patch and carve a pumpkin, you can pick out a design together and then build the best costume ever. There are so many wholesome activities to share with your darling children. Or ... you could traumatize them. Let's not forget, Halloween is also about playing ma

You've watched the shows. You've heard the sounds...the voices...seen the footage. Ghost hunting is 'WICKED' popular right now and it made sense this month to take you on a journey that I NEVER thought I would do! I've had some ghostly things happen to me in the past but THIS adventure takes the cake!!!

There's one thing we know for sure about little kids-- they can make practically anything seem adorable. Scrunched-up, twisted sour faces? Check. A boppin' on a bed rendition of Michael Jackson's 'Thriller'? You betcha! Although we're a little dumbfounded as to how this "everything is ridiculously adorable" thing actually happens, we can't help but be sucked into the cuteness every darn

With Halloween just a few weeks away and our obsession with dressed-up animals still going strong, we have been led into the most wonderful of all Tumblr lands with our latest discovery.

Here's one more point against Mitt Romney -- the streets this Halloween are going to be flooded with women in "sexy" Big Bird costumes, thanks to his comments at the recent presidential debate.

Well, we may not be able to see how 'The Munsters' get reborn as 'Mockingbird Lane' on a weekly basis, but at least we'll get to see what Bryan Fuller came up with for the pilot. Having already sunk over $10 million into the project, NBC seems to have made the official decision not to move forward with Fuller's 'Mockingbird Lane,' instead airing the pilot as a spooky Halloween special. When will t

Remember the movie Grease? Remember Frenchy? Yup, that's me! My twin is Didi Conn. I've heard that my entire life. Well, why not embrace it? I found part of my Halloween costume at the new Spirit Halloween Store! I'm not just channeling my inner Nikki Hunt, I'm full on Greased! Not only can I dress as one of my favorite movie characters but anyone can! You won't believe the selection they have! Re

It's October and you know what that means: hot cider, pumpkin beer, candy corn and of course, Halloween. In the spirit of the holiday here are some creepy and intriguing horror movies perfect for the Halloween season.

One of our new favorite things about Halloween is funny, candid pictures of people being scared senseless in a haunted house. We had to ask ourselves though, what were they seeing that was so scary? We put our heads together, and we think we've figured it out. Here are our guesses at what was so scary in that haunted house. Because it certainly wasn't a guy in a wolf mask jumping out of nowhere.

If ever there were a great and almighty pumpkin put on this earth to bring the spirit of the Halloween season to children all over the world, it would be this record-setting melon discovered last week at the Deerfield Fair in New Hampshire.
