Well ... after going through a few scary ghost, just to be fair ... not all ghosts are wicked. Some are quite sweet. Don't forget to share your candies with a friendly ghost, who walks you home on a rainy night. Afterall, it's much more fun to enjoy the Halloween fun with friends.

Take a little break from the cute ghosts ... two more pieces from Silent Hill. Top is one of the most haunted rooms - the bloody scarify chamber! HE ! HE!! Silent Hilll concept arts are copyrighted by the studio.

Remember to clean up your lawn for Trick or Treat, cause when the wind blow the autumn leaves ghost will rise from the ground and attack you at night ... so Trick or Treat Lesson 3 - make sure you don't have too many death leaves lying around.

Trick or Treat 101 lesson: This year's lesson number 2. Why too much candy is BAD for you! Here is something your mom and dentist never tell you, cause they don't want to freak you out. If you eat a little bit candy, the candy ghost can't really tell a little chunk of it, is missing. BUT if you eat too much candy ... Well ...

YAY! One week before Halloween, time for the annual Trick or Treat 101 lesson: This year's lesson number 1, NOT all ghosts are friendly ... skip the trick of treat question and run as fast as you can, when you see a mouth of teeth open the door.

And it's whole lot of fun to watch, not to mention the cutest thing ever.
