Halloween might just be the most exciting holiday of the year. Sure, Christmas is fun with the family and Easter allows you to eat all the chocolate you want, but there’s something extra special about Halloween. Not only do you get to dress up in spooky costumes and go door-to-door trick or treating, but it gives you an excuse to binge-watch horror movies. And who doesn’t love a good horror?
But it’s not all scares and screams. Halloween is also a joyous occasion full of laughs and good times. Whether that’s via funny Halloween costumes, Halloween pranks, or your favorite Halloween memes.
Halloween memes take inspiration from not only the holiday but also all the media connected it to. Horror movies, horror comics, horror TV shows, creepy tales, and more influence a range of spooky and funny Halloween memes we’ve collected below.
