It's October, which means it is Halloween season! (Basically all month.) That means it is the season of spooks. Having a vivid imagination makes it fun to think of all kinds of creepy stuff to plague your friend's minds with. Here are a few things I have thought up to help you scare the living daylights out of your buddies. Because you love them, right? And what better way to show it than making them wet their pants? Here are 8 creative ways to scare your friends:

1. Tell them the fence you are walking or running next to is going to stretch open and engulf them like a huge monster and transport them to an evil universe of doom and torture.

2. Tell them the water they are showering in is actually the tears of tortured souls trapped in the shower head. If they take a shower for too long, their soul would be sucked up out of them by the shower head and be added to the shower soul collection.

3. You could also make it so the water coming out of their shower is red like blood or black like Satan's blood. That ought to give them a real big frighten.

4. Tell them their dog or cat is actually a demon sent from hell and it's time to join them on the dark side.

5. Hide spooky things in their house and car. Perhaps a possessed doll right outside their bedroom window.

6. Hide every time they leave the room, and when they come back, jump out at them when they least expect it. This is something I feel like everyone has done at some point in their life.

7. Act like you have forgotten who they are. That will get them for sure.

8. You can always do something classic too, such as wake them up from their slumber while wearing a horrifying mask or by banging pots and pans over their heads.

Stay spooky, but stay safe too. You don't want to literally scare your friends to death.
