Panning for internet gold: The cannibal pumpkin edition

It’s that magical time of year when horror films fill up the TV channels and we send our darling infants onto the streets to beg from strangers.

Before you dive stealthily into their haul of ill-gotten Haribo, take a look at how the internet celebrates All Hallows’ Eve.

Aaaaaarrrrggghhhhhh

• This Halloween-Costume dog parade round-up contains an awful lot of distressingly cute imagery.
• If carving a pumpkin isn’t sufficiently feral for your tastes, why not try it using a firearm? Yeah, or maybe don’t.
• Sometimes, the humour in Halloween costumes is so nuanced, it’s hard to tell what’s going on. [Vaguely NSFW.]
• This body art is perfect for your spook-party. Just get it done before you’ve started on your beers.
• A cheese advert that’s more terrifying than the entire Paranormal Activity franchise.

A smidgen of cute to take the edge off your scares:
