Our Favorite BooTube Videos This Week: The Halloween Edition

Is that a ghost? No… It’s just your cubicle mate Fred, and his pasty, pasty skin. Is that a vampire? Nope. Just your soul-sucking boss. Gah! A witch! Or… ugh, the reflection of your own face in your computer screen, gone evil from lack of sleep.

Got Halloween on the brain at work today? Don’t we all? That’s why this week’s YouTubeYouTube roundup theme is, naturally, All Hallow’s Eve.

Check out our selection of creepy, crawly vids before taking off into the night this weekend, mingling with all the ghosts and ghouls and drowning yourselves with sugary sweets.

Which do you like best: The tricks or the treats?

Matt Silverman: I will never not laugh at this.

Vadim Lavrusik: They’re real, they’re really real! Mobile, Alabama has some leprechaun spottings, according to this hilarious news report. “I want the gold, give me the gold, I wanna know where the gold at!”

Blake Robinson: BooTube can’t be complete without this silly video…

Blake Robinson:… and this creepy video.

Sarah Kessler: At least 10 years after seeing The Nightmare Before Christmas, I still occasionally get this song stuck in my head.

Amy-Mae Elliot: Warren Zevon is not just for Halloween.

Sarah Kessler: I completely respect this as a form of entertainment.

Radhika Marya: The creepy laughter, the lurking clown doll… a classically effective opening sequence for a show that was appointment TV for a number of kids back in the day.

Josh Catone: No beer and no TV make Homer something something…

Jay Irani: Ain’t no Halloween like a Betty Boop Halloween.

Christina Warren: I got a rock…

Josh Catone: The Watcher in the Woods remains the only movie ever to give me nightmares. It’s a Disney movie. I’m not ashamed — that movie is terrifying.

Karen Hartline: I have two separate scary instances with the movie Halloween to the point that I can’t even hear the theme song without freaking out. I couldn’t bring myself to actually open a Halloween YouTube clip, but found a Lego Halloween clip…of course it opens with the theme music, so DISCLOSURE…I couldn’t watch this clip, but I’m sure it’s cute. There’s also a Halloween Lego part 2, if you dare to watch it.

Brian Dresher: On a much lighter (and less scarier!) note…while not Halloween specific, here’s one of my fave clips with a Halloween costume, “Darth Vader Going to Dentist”, which is a parody of the viral clip, “David Going to Dentist.”

Brenna Ehrlich: This new vid from Jeremy Messersmith is pretty awesome. I haven’t dug a Halloween jam this much since “Ghost of John.”
