Spooky Shareware

Halloween is just around the corner. In fact, it's even closer than it was supposed to be thanks to the lateness of this article. But never fear, it's not too late to download some scary screensavers and computer games with a spooky theme to grace your computer screen.

Starting with screensavers, Halloween 1.0 shows a typical, scary Halloween scene. A hanged man dangles from a tree with a haunted house and bats everywhere in the background. As a man throws knives from a window above, ten spooky sounds will emanate from your computer as you write out the check for the $9.95 registration fee.

Not sick of Lewinsky jokes yet? If not, you might want to try Digifilm Interactive's "The Flying Hallowinksy". This political satire screensaver mixes Halloween with Bill Clinton's favorite White House intern. Don't miss it.

Got kids who can't decide what to be for Halloween? Give them some inspiration with Halloween Dress Up. Kids can mix and match costumes with bodies and other items, then print out the results when they're finished.

Trivia buff? Well, you can do one of two things. You can watch that really cool special that's on almost every year called The Halloween Tree, or you can download and play Halloween Trick or Treat, where you can collect 'treats' by displaying your knowledge of the history and background of Halloween.

Happy Halloween!
