The Funny Side of Halloween

Updated on September 23, 2013

Even the Scariest Day of the Year is Worth a Few Laughs

Halloween isn't usually known for it's funny side but after seeing many funny things at Halloween, I felt it needed some special consideration.

A week ago, I was visiting Washington State and ventured into Astoria, Oregon. They had decorated for Halloween and upon seeing a funny witch (photo below), smacked into a light pole, I had to have a laugh.

It reminded me about all of the funny things I have seen and seen other people do on Halloween. This website is dedicated to the little spark of hilarity that can be generated by some of the the funniest things at Halloween. Some may not have been intended to be funny, but most will cause a chuckle, at the least.

Follow me in this journey to the lighter side of Halloween and as Rod Serling would say, "We offer this for your consideration."

Even Dracula has a Laugh every so Often

There is a bit of laughter in Halloween, as in any holiday.

Do you ever wonder if the famous monsters ever had a laugh behind the scenes?

Someone nailed Frankenstein's boot to the floor; Dracula slipped in some blood; the Mummy being attacked by moths; or the Blob being mopped up by the cleaning lady?

I remember growing up and seeing some funny things around Halloween time. Many of them focused on costumes, but there were others.

This website is dedicated to some of those funny things that you may see, with a modern twist. We wouldn't want to leave out Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga, so I have included them here.

Take a stumble down this path with me and when you have finished, I would appreciate if you sent this to your friends and also said "Hello" below in the Guestbook.

Have a great time and thank you for visiting!

In my own and many other opinions, this is definitely the funniest Halloween movie of all time. Who can forget Igor (Marty Feldman) singing "Ain't got no body" or the roll in the hay with Teri Garr? I especially love Peter Boyle (1935-2006) as theFrankenstein monster, a role he recreated many years later on "Everybody Loves Raymond" during a Halloween episode. If Mary Shelley were alive today, she definitely would have this one on her playlist. Highly recommended and a very low price for such a great & funny movie.

I have seen a lot of trends this year that are for maternity costumes for the Halloween season. This little expanding shirt is just the costume for expectant mothers. A very interesting and original idea and you don't have to paint your belly.
