Halloween and Coming Soon

While Halloween has been only a few days ago, and due to the fact that if you are a Halloween fan, everyday is Halloween in your heart, I will post a few Halloween facts and some random artwork from the October season.

The worlds first Jack'O Lantern 
Each and every year during Halloween, practically everyone who celebrates the holiday, will set out a carved pumpkin with a candle inside as a decoration. Now some may question (or not), "I wonder who started this trend"? Well, that can be explained in this paragraph:

As stated in the Book of Bizarre Things (Close enough to the title), the first Jack' O Lantern came about in the tale of a man named Jack, chased the devil up a tree, and carved out a cross right below him so that the devil would not come down. Feeling pleased with this, he returned to his sinful life of sloth and gluttony. When the time came for Jack to go to the great beyond, the lord would not let him go to heaven due to his life of sins. And the devil, who managed to get off the tree would not let him go to Hell ether, for chasing him up an apple tree. Having no-where to go, the devil feeling a form of pity for the man, gave Jack some coal to light his way. One day while eating a turnip, Jack got disgusted with it, and decided to put the coal into the turnip, making the world's first Jack' O Lantern.

This of course, was a tale that was invented in Europe when people used to carve their turnips and use them to make a Jack'O Lantern.

Danger Dolan Halloween Candy
One of the reasons I posted this one is because Danger Dolan has always been a favorite of mine, and I felt the need to post this list of his Halloween Candy List. The link will be posted at the bottom for the website. Enjoy!

As quoted from Danger Dolan.TV: Click Here to visit the website
From delicious hair of the werewolf to blood bags filled with sugary goo, we count 15 of the funnest, most awesome pieces of Halloween candy ever prepared by crazy companies and websites
15 – Insect Candy

  • So you might look at these and think, hey, a bunch of plastic insect toys embedded in a lollipop
  • Well, hotlix.com process real insects and dip them in candy – yes, they’re real, live insects frozen in time, ready to be eaten with a crunchy, delicious taste
  • You can get ants, crickets, worms and scorpions in your lollipop, although the scorpions are more expensive since they’re usually reluctant to become food
14 – Brain-Flavoured Zombie Mints
  • These are made specifically for zombies, but regular people can eat them too
  • The official website mcphee.com suggests eating these to make your breath autopsy-fresh in case you need to disguise yourself in a zombie-packed street
  • They also come in Cthulu flavour, although those will just drive you insane
13 – Blue Cheese Lollipop
Bluecheese-lolipops-1
  • This one started out as a joke, blue cheese on a stick, and then somehow it took off and became an actual thing
  • The company that designed it, Lollyphile, they’re been experimenting with lollipop flavours like breast milk and absinthe, and this was their latest attempt at candy that makes no sense
12 – Gumball Eyes
51TgA6P5ERL
  • A ton of bloodied up suckable eyeballs perfect for strewing around any Halloween candy table, and they’re filled with fat-free liquid cherry candy
  • Course, they taste just like any other gumball so don’t expect the familiar delicious taste of real eyeball juice inside – for that you’ll need a dark alleyway and some sharp cleavers
11 – Death Mints
3904811623b
  • Amazing simply for the case alone, it is, according to the website, the preferred mint of choice for vampires, corpses and zombies – and it comes with 100 mints similar to the brain-flavoured one
  • According to reviews it takes about 5 of them to get you fresh breath, but since the case is so cool you can store proper mints in there AND NOBODY WILL KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
