Scary movie marathons, bucketloads of lollies and an excuse to dress up as sexy Ronald McDonald (just me??)…. Who doesn’t love Halloween? While all of us here at The Fizzz love the spooky season, these internet users prove that Halloween isn’t always such a treat:
This case of mistaken identity:

This treat that wasn’t such a hit with the kids:

The time that a Halloween costume turned into method-acting:

A Twitter-user who took costumes a little too literally:

This man’s mysteriously de-egged house:

This person who was maybe a little too honest…

This Twitter-user who discovered they had mystical powers:

An awkward case of double trouble:

This person who ate more than they bargained for:

The person whose screaming turned out to be scarier than being unemployed:

This incident that they’ll never live down:

This girl whose friends overcommitted to her costume:

The scaredy-cat dad whose next family outing with his daughter might just be to family therapy:

I thought my family was strange but at least my dad’s never thrown me in front of a chainsaw?? The bar gets lower every day…
This girl who had her Halloween plans shattered:

I wouldn’t recommend running into a mirror, but the lazy part of me does like that it makes for an instant scary costume 🤔
An awkward encounter that proves that silence truly is golden:

This is something that’s going to haunt that guy for the rest of his life 😬
This neighbour who the other parents may have had a bone to pick with:

Sounds like he took the skeleton aspect of Halloween a little too literally!
This person who should have thought their costume out more:

When what you’re wearing makes it look like you’re part of the Klan, maybe it’s time to revaluate your wardrobe…
These siblings who witnessed the world’s first flying baby:

Every horror movie I’ve seen has told me to stay away from creepy dolls, but none have ever warned me that they could fly?! I’m going to double-lock my windows tonight…
A Halloween that was maybe a little too family-friendly:

Honestly, it could be a lot worse–remember the dad who used his daughter as a human shield??
This person’s sister who learnt why people don’t go to haunted mazes by themselves:

I would say that she should escape after something that embarrassing, but it doesn’t sound like she’s got a great track record with running away 😳
