Halloween

It is almost time to start carving those Jack-o'-lanterns ... and these famous faces are ready to hit up the pumpkin patch and bring home the perfect pump' to start hacking up!

From stars such as Rob and Bryiana Dyrdek to Kylie Jenner and Miley Cyrus, it's clear that even celebs are excited to get into the Halloween festivities!

Take a look at all the stars that are making it their mission to find the perfect pumpkin this year by scrolling through our gallery of celebs at the pumpkin patch ... see who is getting in the spirit!

Ben Affleck seemed to have fallen off the wagon Saturday night at a Halloween party.

Ben was leaving La Peer Hotel in West Hollywood for the Unicef Masquerade ball. He clearly has trouble walking and uses the SUV to steady himself. He nearly fell before catching himself on the vehicle.

Affleck has had a rough go of things over the years. He's struggled with his sobriety and repeatedly gone to rehab ... most recently in August 2018, when his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, drove him to a facility in Malibu. He's had a sober coach and seemed to have been doing well.

Ben had been attending wellness classes at an L.A. wellness center that specializes in "Buddhist ethics," where people who attend engage in meditation with a focus on healthy body, mind and spirit.

Sobriety is difficult and elusive for everyone struggling with addiction, and we're told Ben has acknowledged he's going to slip up from time to time ... it was never as if this was simply behind him.

It's unclear if Ben will be heading back to rehab.

Demi Lovato threw a crazy Halloween party Saturday night, and tons of celebs came out to celebrate.

The bash went down at Hyde nightclub in Hollywood. Among those who attended ... Paris Hilton, Larsa Pippen, Jason Derulo, Jake Paul, Madison Beer, Hana Cross, EJ Johnson, Jayde Nicole and Dorothy Wang.

Demi came as Pennywise from "It." Paris came as a schoolgirl. Larsa came in camo ... check out the gallery.

Kylie Jenner was supposed to attend, but her driver got in a little fender bender and she ended up being a no-show. She wasn't hurt and spent her night hanging with Sofia Richie. BTW ... Kylie was dressed as Madonna, circa 2003 VMA Awards.

The best Halloween party in Hollywood went down Friday night in Bev Hills ... a party that has become a frightening tradition!

George Clooney and Rande Gerber hosted the Casamigos bash at the home of Mike Meldman, a developer and, of course, tequila tycoon.

The theme was psychedelic ... check out the neon and graffiti decorations.

As for the celebs who showed up ... David Arquette, Chuck Liddell, Gerard Butler, Cindy Crawford, Dave Grohl, Jessica Biel, Justin Timberlake, Kaitlynn Carter, Maria Menounos, Larsa Pippen, Laverne Cox, Lisa Rinna, Molly Sims, Jeff Probst, Steve Tisch, Nina Dobrev, Paris Hilton, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Pia Miller, Patrick Whitesell, Ryan Phillippe, and tons more.

Cindy Crawford came dressed in a disco costume and Rande Gerber went as a hippy. Paris Hilton dressed as a fancy-looking bunny with large feather ears and satin lingerie. Lisa Rinna paid homage to J Lo's famed Versace dress with her teal and green costume.

Jessica Biel dressed as 90s JT, with the signature tight-blonde curly hair and large diamond stud earring. And, Justin Timberlake dressed as a microphone.

Nina Dobrev dressed as Billie Eilish -- rocking lime-green roots and black tears running down her face. Kaitlynn Carter dressed in a 70s costume, wearing a silver chain dress and go-go boots. Gerard Butler came dressed in a miss-matched psychedelic outfit and no shirt.

Larsa Pippen dressed as a dark angel with a black mini-dress and black feather wings. Patrick Schwarzenegger went as Austin Powers and his girlfriend, Abby Champion, went as a fembot.

Maryland-born actress Kimberly J. Brown was only 14 years old when she took on the role of the witch in training, Marnie Piper -- who leaves the mortal world with her siblings to battle the evil warlock, Kalabar -- in the OG 1998 Disney Channel spooky movie, "Halloweentown."

Kimberly J. Brown was cast alongside some other young actors including Joey Zimmerman as the middle sibling and bus-hopping brother, Dylan Piper, and Emily Roeske as the youngest sister and tagalong troublemaker, Sophie Piper.

Brown was also in the cinematic sequels including "Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge" and "Halloweentown High," but was ultimately replaced by Sara Paxton in the 2006 final film "Return To Halloweentown."

"Halloween is cool."

Boulder, Colorado-born Lucas Elliot Eberl was only 12 years old when he manifested into the role of Tunnel Boy -- who was the last incarnation of the Ancient Enemy before being wiped out by the bio-engineered bacteria -- in the 1998 freaky film adaptation of the Dean Koontz book, "Phantoms."

Lucas Elliot Eberl starred in the creepy flick alongside stars like Peter O'Toole as the super-smart Dr. Tomothy Flyte, Joanna Going and Rose McGowan as the sisters in distress, Lisa and Dr. Jennifer Pailey ... and, of course, Ben Affleck as the sharp-shooting sheriff who saves the day, Sheriff Bryce Hammond.

Halloween is less than two weeks away and that means you only have so much time left to get into the spooky season!

Spice things up this year and start pimping your pumpkins with these famous faces! You'll have the most popular Jack O' Lantern around ... from Billie Eilish and Lizzo, to Lil Nas X and Bernie Sanders, there certainly are plenty of stars to choose from.

Los Angeles-native DeJuan Guy is best known for his role as the neighborhood lore expert, Jake -- who helps save the baby from the fire and chucks the murderous hook onto the coffin at the end -- in the 1992 repetitive horror film, "Candyman."

DeJuan Guy was cast alongside a killer cast of actors including Virginia Madsen, as the researcher-turned-psycho killer, Helen Lyle, Vanessa Williams, as the dog-owning mother who loses her baby, Anne-Marie McCoy ... and, of course, Tony Todd, as the hook-swinging slasher, The Candyman.

Staten Island-local Mike Giannelli is best known for playing the creepy Art The Clown -- who terrorizes, tortures and murders young people on a VHS tape -- in the 2013 killer clown film "All Hallows' Eve."

Mike Giannelli is cemented into the ranks of classic homicidal clown movies including "Killer Klowns From Outer Space," "Poltergeist," 2019's "Joker" and of course Stephen King's "IT."

Freaky fact: Mike Giannelli did not take on the role of Art The Clown in the 2016 fright follow-up, "Terrifier," instead the clown was played by David Howard Thorton.

The famous house used in the first "Scream" slasher film is going out with a bang ... with a Halloween party offering die-hard fans their last chance to get scared by Ghostface ... for a price.

Anthony Masi and Nate Ragon are the masterminds behind Screamoween -- located near Santa Rosa, CA -- and they're hosting one last recreation of the rager at the actual home where the movie's classic ending went down.

The party's set for Halloween night, and fans can drop $199 for a ticket to the shindig ... but you better move fast, there's only 150 tickets available. We're told the owners of the property want their privacy, so the upcoming party will be it.

Dustin May's fastball is scary as hell ... but his costume at the Dodgers' dress-up party on Thursday was even more terrifying -- 'cause he made for an UNREAL Pennywise!!!

For some reason, L.A. decided to celebrate Halloween about a month early this year after their win over the Padres ... and we're all grateful for it.

May's Pennywise fit stole the show -- seriously, don't let your kids see it (get it!) -- but his teammates had some pretty incredible costumes as well.

Star hitter Cody Bellinger and reliever Joe Kelly dressed up as LeBron's "Taco Tuesday" ... and it's hilarious.

Florida Sec. of State Michael Ertel is learning the same lesson Megyn Kelly learned about blackface, but in a much harsher way -- he's stepping down after offensive Halloween pics of him emerged online.

Ertel had the audacity to wear blackface 14 years ago when he dressed up as a female Hurricane Katrina victim. His costume also included a headscarf and fake boobs.

Newly elected Gov. Ron DeSantis, who appointed Ertel, got wind of the pics Thursday morning after the Tallahassee Democrat newspaper obtained them. Shortly thereafter, Ertel resigned his post.

The photos were taken in 2005, 2 months after Katrina ripped through Louisiana, and while Ertel was serving as Seminole County's supervisor of elections.

Worth noting, Gov. DeSantis had his own racial controversy during his hotly contested campaign against Andrew Gillum. You might recall his "don't monkey this up" comment. If ya don't, here it is ...

Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum seem to really have the conscious uncoupling thing down -- going from peaceful reunited exes one night to love birds with their new boos the next.

Jenna was spotted out Thursday near Palm Springs with her boyfriend, Steve Kazee, holding hands and enjoying a mid-day walk. She had a grin on her face while chatting on the phone -- and, honestly, couldn't look happier.

Meanwhile, Channing took their daughter, Everly, to Jessie J's concert in L.A. later that night. He's been dating the pop star for at least a couple months after splitting from Jenna earlier this year.

Speaking of Everly, her mom and dad DID link up on Halloween to go trick-or-treating with her.

Both Channing and Jenna are clearly moving on, but they also don't seem bitter over the breakup -- especially since they each have their own new relationship.

Here's the scariest thing we've seen this Halloween -- O.J. Simpson.

Oh, also he's dressed up as a gynecologist ... which is way scarier than run of the mill O.J..

The ex-con spent his Halloween evening at the Blue Martini Lounge in Las Vegas, Nevada -- one of his fave haunts -- dressed up as an OB/GYN ... with the name Dr. Seymour Bush written on his doctor's coat lapel.

GET IT? SEYMOUR BUSH!!! Juice got jokes, y'all.

As usual, there were no lack of fans lining up to take photos with O.J., despite ... you know.

As far as we know, no one was stabbed to death at the bar that night. Only 2 questions remain: Where did O.J. get that jacket, and has anyone seen the real Dr. Bush?

Seriously ...

Chris Pratt and Anna Faris are doing divorce as well as ANY Hollywood couple ever has -- cause they went trick-or-treating together ... WITH their new significant others, and everyone was all smiles!

The freshly divorced duo, along with Katherine Schwarzenegger and Michael Barrett, took Jack out for Halloween in full couples costumes too. Chris and Katherine were Vikings, while Anna was Snow White and Michael took a shot at Khaleesi from 'GoT.' Jack was cool as ever as a ninja.

Costumes aside ... ya gotta check out the gallery, because not only are Chris and Anna getting along -- but Anna and Katherine were chummy and laughing. Bonus for Chris! Always better when the ex and the GF get along.

The modern fam was so NOT awkward, Chris and Kat were even sucking face during the outing.

As we reported ... Chris and Anna officially finalized their divorce two weeks ago.

This is becoming a thing in Hollywood -- we just saw Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry and Miranda Kerr chopping it up.

9:50 AM PT -- Kim has apologized for using the word, telling us, "I want to apologize for what I said in a recent video post that is inappropriate and insensitive to the special needs community. I try to learn from my mistakes and this is one of those times. Please know that my intention is always pure, and in this case, it was a mistake. I’m sorry."

Another huge star has offended the special needs community -- this time, it's Kim Kardashian West who used the r-word to insult Halloween party guests who couldn't guess her costume.

Kim dressed up as Pam Anderson to attend Kendall Jenner's Halloween bash Wednesday night -- but was jokingly irritated when she quizzed guests about her costume and they couldn't figure it out.

But, in a video Kim posted -- and has since deleted -- on Instagram to her 120 MILLION followers, Kim used the word "r******d" to describe guests who were too dumb to decipher her Halloween character.

Of course, the problem ... tons of special needs groups have spoken out about the dangers of using the r-word because it essentially uses a serious condition as an insult.

In fact, earlier this week, Shaun White issued an apology after dressing as a special needs character from the movie "Tropic Thunder" for a Halloween party.

Bottom line -- special needs people are not punchlines, insults or Halloween costumes and people like Kim and Shaun should be more understanding.

Kim deleted the video off her IG page, but the internet backlash was immediate. Some comments about the clip ...

"@KimKardashian using the R word on her IG story from yesterday is disgusting. And I really liked her. Watched, followed, bought shit, spent like 3 grand on her game. My brother is an ANGEL sent from Heaven and if you use it generally, you use it ALL THE TIME. Done."

"It's 2018, we don't say the r word anymore."

"Ughh @KimKardashian saying the R word in her IG story made me cringe."
