Happy Halloween! Here is a plethora of fun, festive animated GIFs to get you in the mood, from a bubbling cauldron and grinning jack-o’-lanterns to a haunted house, a dancing skeleton and a black cat with a taste for wine. Most of them come from motion designers and illustrators who post loops on Dribbble and Behance every October, and the looping GIF suits Halloween better than almost any other holiday. A good scare is a matter of timing, and a loop lets a small gag land again and again. Found via The Inspiration Grid.
Once you have had your fill of loops, we keep the season going elsewhere. Our vintage postcards from the witching hour show how Halloween looked a century ago, this spooky illusion asks what you see first, and for something built rather than drawn, there is the trick-or-treat zipline one dad rigged up in his front yard.
