The 10 Spookiest Things Out There This Halloween
AHH!! Oh, phew, you had us scared for a moment, but it was just a nice Jack-O-Lantern bobbing along in the autumn night. It’s our favourite time of year, but the true spooks aren’t the witches and nice ghosties that walk among us – it’s the everyday hauntings that are the most terrifying of all.
Without further ado, Boo-shemia presents the 10 spookiest things out there this Halloween.
BAD SPOOKS :(
Please go away :(

You feel a shiver down your spine and the hairs on your arms stand up right. No, it's not because a spooky ghost is haunting you, it's because it's costing your entire life savings to turn the heating on for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, the new UK PM is practically a billionaire, and we're figuring out how to make a tin of beans last a week.It seems like Elon Musk really is going to buy Twitter this week

I am being haunted. I wish it were by a spooky yet mischievous poltergeist, my current spectre is far scarier than that. Everytime I log onto Tik Tok I'm being haunted and harassed by Taylor Swift content – Gaylor, Hetlor, the endless Swiftie Easter eggs. Enough! How many times do I have to tell the world I only like Folklore and Evermore!? Must I exorcise my FYP to finally be rid of Taylor Swift content? Why must I be haunted so!?The continued proliferation of the Anti-Silhouette trend by Gen Z, as seen in Autumn 2022 fashion

It’s consistently been a spooky 20ºc in the UK this October, which is a ghoulish 7ºc higher than the average for this month. This is supposed to be the start of Big Coat Season!!! Why am I still going out in the evening in merely a light beach cover up?! Suddenly I feel an overwhelming urge to throw bisque all over a baroque painting…

Sometimes capitalism really comes through for us, and those times are 99% Pikachu-related. Imagine a nice Pikachu, but now he's got a pumpkin! Spooky (but in a nice way). And thanks to capitalism, he can be bought for a relatively low price to live with you year long. Spooky pumpkin Pikachu: not just for Halloween.Cats in hats :)
Specifically, L’s cats in their pumpkin hats. Scroll to the bottom to see said cats in hats. The remaining 1% of the time that capitalism comes through for us, it’s cat-related. Yay for cute capitalism!
