Halloween night is drawing nearer and nearer, so here's a treat with no tricks attached. I've put together five Horrific Wallpapers for you, culled from years of images from this blog! I really hope you enjoy them more than I did making them! What a pain in the gazitza!
I take no responsibility if you use these images as desktop wallpaper, and they scare the rest of your icons away!
It's kind of funny, but Halloween wasn't really the subject of a movie until 1978, and even in that movie, there was very little trick or treating.
Early national attention to trick-or-treating were episodes of radio programs "The Baby Snooks
Show" in 1946, and "The Jack Benny Show" and "The Adventures of Ozzie and
Harriet" in 1948.
By the 1960's, almost every television show had a Halloween episode of sorts, but it still wasn't happening in the movies.
I'm pretty sure the concept of giving away free candy to kids was developed by a group of dentists and psychiatrists in the 1940's. There was another group of do-gooders in the government who thought it was a good idea to hand out cigarettes and beer, but, well you know how that worked out! The war screwed up everything!
