Remember that classic Motown tune Devil With A Blue Dress On which was made famous by Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels back in 1964?
Well, the guy in this picture decided to create a literal translation of the song lyrics when he created his clever costume, and I'm sure he raised lots of hell that Halloween.
I'll take a devil in a blue dress over Satan in stiletto heels any day!
Anyone who dresses up as the Ninja Turtles for Halloween may be in trouble if this guy dressed as Krang comes to their town, unless you can get your hands on little pink Krang and force him to cool out.
Seriously though dude, as far as homemade costumes go this Krang styled getup is totally bodacious, and captures the cartoony look in a totally tubular way! Gnarly work dudes!

Halloween is a great time to share your geek love with the world, so why not pick a theme that's close to your heart for the array of jack-o-lanterns you display on your doorstep?
Carve the likeness of various Pokemon into your pumpkins and let the world know that you're on a mission to catch 'em all!
The kids lucky enough to've received these Halloween bento boxes probably didn't appreciate the fact that they're beautiful works of food art, or how much time and energy was spent creating each one, but at least we get to enjoy the pictures taken before they were gobbled up!

Way back in that golden year known as 1983 William Shatner played the prince of poetic darkness Edgar Allen Poe in a retro TV gem called The Magical Musical Halloween Show.
Audience reactions ranged from "hmmmm" to "oh dear god make it stop!" with a few "his words doth speaketh to mine soul" in between, and if you ask me it was too terrifying to watch in its entirety so try to sit through it all...if you dare!
If you encounter a pumpkin that looks like this bloodthirsty little bugger while trick-or-treating do yourself a favor and move on to the next house!
The frightfully sharp fang details make him look like he might take a bite out of you if you get too close, and the beady black eyes add a touch of living detail to this inhuman eating machine that says stay away! *shiver*

Cry Baby Lane is a lost teenie horror film that was supposed to premiere on Nickelodeon in October, 2000 but was pulled from broadcast due to parental protest.
The story involves conjoined twins imprisoned by their father, and the teens that summon their spirits back from the dead to haunt the town, and even though it was supposed to air a mere twelve years ago it seems rather tame by today's standards.
Here, in all its made-for-television splendor, is the full length version of Cry Baby Lane so you can see what you've been missing!

Meet Zelda, a cake that's far too beautiful to be eaten, which is too bad because she actually sounds quite delicious:
Zelda is half Peach Cake soaked in bourbon, the other half is vanilla cake with a salted caramel buttercream.
She was masterfully crafted by Karen Portaleo and the Highland Bakery, whose incredible works of cake art don't end with Zelda. So take a look at their Flickr photostream if you like your cakes inedibly elegant and diet approved.
Update-- Karen has her own blog called Special Sugar, check it out cake lovers!

Anatomical Barbie is not the sort of doll a little girl would enjoy putting up in her dollhouse, unless the girl in question wants to be a surgeon some day.
Created by artist and toy slicer Jason Freeny, it's all been exposed for the sake of seeing what makes Barbie tick, and I'll say one thing on her behalf- for a plastic doll she sure has a lot of guts!
