Hershey, Pennsylvania is one of the sweetest towns to visit around Halloween, and not just because it's the birthplace of the Hershey bar.

Every year Hershey hosts Hersheypark In The Dark, a fun theme park for the whole family to visit.

There are thrilling rides, a trick-or-treat adventure through Hershey's Chocolate World, and plenty of great food, attractions and entertainment for the whole family.

One things for certain- the chocoholics in your family will leave completely satisfied!

We all know that the superheroes in the Marvel Universe are tough, but illustrator Skottie Young insists that they were born kicking butt!

His adorable series finds Marvel superfolks crushing villains before naptime, and even with their claws out and laser beams shooting out of their hands I just wanna hug 'em and squeeze 'em and play with 'em like bouncy little babies!

The Dude abides in the classic Coen Brothers film The Big Lebowski, but did you know that the character played by Jeff Bridges is based on a real life dude?

Your response should be "whoa man, you just blew my mind!", because reacting to this earth- shattering news in any other way makes you a Nihilist. 

Plant your peepers on this doc by Jeff Feuerzeig and do some abiding of your own...

Talk about shedding some light on a situation!

Photographer Janne Parviainen has created room "tracings" using LED lights and long exposure shots to create a glowing scribblefest which outlines the contours of a room.

There's a lot of living energy in Janne's shots, and the whole glow effect makes each room look like something out of a waking dream.

Sending a Hollywood movie overseas means simply adding subtitles, but advertising said movie means wacky new artwork created by someone who clearly hasn't even seen the movie!

Take a gander at this gallery of posters for Hollywood blockbusters as seen through the eyes of European artists, and you'll see how a little artistic interpretation can make a popular movie nearly unrecognizable.

There's battle a-brewin' in the Mushroom Kingdom, and only Special Forces agents Mario and Luigi can crush the evil dictator Koopa and save countless mushroom headed lives.

It's Mario Warfare by production company Beat Down Boogie, a full length live action spoof of the Super Mario Bros. franchise that's been in the works for quite some time now.

We finally have a trailer, and it looks pretty slick! Hopefully the entire film will hit our computer screens soon....

Now here's a scene we never thought we'd see- Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) as a scary zombie and the Evil Queen as a fearless zombie slayer!

I guess when it comes to dealing with the zombie apocalypse the lines between good and evil are blurred. So does that make her the Chaotic Neutral Queen?

Artist David Mach creates sculptures out of a variety of odd mediums, from matchsticks to Scrabble tiles, but this time he's making drycleaner dreams come true-by creating sculptures out of coathangers.

David even left the hook on most of the hangers, creating an exterior layer of texture and adding a bit of visual interest to each piece, as if these pieces needed to be more interesting to look at!

Paintings are often viewed for their illustrative value, and the stories behind the images are either speculated about or left up to individual interpretation.

But this list of disturbing works leaves nothing to the imagination, and the stories behind these paintings can be downright sick!

Read for yourself what these paintings are really all about, you may be left with a better appreciation of fine art...or a bad taste in your mouth.

A button up shirt, soup spoons and a sledgehammer- what do these things have in common besides starting with the letter S? They're all subjects of surreal sculptural works by Adam Niklewicz!

Adam specializes in turning objects from normal everyday to strange in every way, and he renders each piece unusable for their originally intended purpose all for the sake of art. Yay art!

The Bic pen company really shot themselves in the foot when they decided to advertise their new line of "cristal" pens as being "for Her".

The interwebs immediately took to typing up hilariously scathing reviews of the pens, making sure to include all the magic, wonder and sparkly ponies these feminine pens have brought into their lives. Here are some examples:

"My drawings of kittens and ponies have improved, and now that I'm writing my last name hyphenated with the Robert Pattinson's last name, I really believe he may some day marry me! I'm positively giddy."

"But the Bic Cristal for Her pens sparkle (like crystal!) and twinkle and dance on the page and even emit little squeaks and giggles when they're writing extra fun stuff. They chatter among themselves and have their own personalities"

Read on and see why these pens are strictly for gals...no guys allowed!

Kitties have highly tuned senses that help them hunt in the wild, but this crazy cat seems to be receiving transmissions from another planet! 

Maybe it's talking to the star of the movie The Cat From Outer Space, either that or it sees a bird outside and wants to get at it...naw, it must be something to do with aliens, anything else is just plain ordinary!

Here's a spooky little animated short to get you in the witching mood.

It's an oldie but goodie called The Skeleton Dance, and it stars (surprise!) a bunch of dancing skeletons getting ready to send shivers down the spines of the townspeople.

This toon just seems to get better with age.

The Muppets are known for being extremely enthusiastic when it comes to celebrating holidays, and the Swedish Chef can't wait to get those jack-o-lanterns carved and placed on his doorstep.

Watch as he attempts to do some carven on der pumpkins, unless those clever pumpkins can convince him otherwise!
