Halloween

"Halloween" star Omar Dorsey isn't just dealing with spooky stuff when he's at work ... he says he's actually talked to ghosts during what sounds like a very freaky encounter.

We got Omar Thursday at LAX and he shared his crazy ghost experience, which he says went down while he was in New Orleans filming "Queen Sugar."

He says he was staying in a place called The Cotton Mill, and he could "feel spirits" hanging around him, every night.

He says it got to the point he felt the need to have a serious convo with them. Basically, he wanted to make sure he was in good graces with the ghosts during the 4 months he was staying there.

Omar's fully aware his ghost tale might sound kinda crazy to a lot of folks, but that's not changing his memory, and he insists it happened. He added, he's never been one of those people looking for this kinda thing ... he says given his Christian background, he's actually afraid of supernatural stuff.

Halloween will come a day early for Indianapolis Colts corner Isaiah Rodgers ... 'cause the NFL player copped some spooky mummy cleats for Sunday's game -- that light up!!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... the Indy defensive back hit up his go-to guy Rodney Jackson recently to get some spikes made for the Colts' day-before-Halloween game against the Washington Commanders.

Jackson tells us he actually came up with the idea to make Rodgers' cleats look like a corpse ... and then he decided to add on a bonus -- some creepy green lights!

The final product came out amazing ... the shoes are wrapped in fabric to make them look like a body is inside. Rodgers' jersey number is painted on the side ... and there's also a frightening green face featured on the toes.

Jackson says he used curtains for the look -- telling us he went to several fabric stores before finally finding just the right product.

Jackson said the pieces -- plus the special wiring for the illumination -- took him 12 hours to put together.

Underneath this pumpkin head is an actress who iconically plummeted off a bridge -- falling to her death -- and transcended into a ghost!

Her long list of acting achievements and freak-filled roles commenced in the '80s, continued through the '90s and she put an even bigger mark on Hollywood after chumming up with a little mouse in the early 2000s. On a spookier note, she starred in the horror/fiction series "The Exorcist."

Multiple people are feared dead after dozens of lifeless bodies required CPR in South Korea Saturday during what appears to be a mass gathering that turned into a crowd surge.

Several videos and photos are circulating on social media right now showing countless people laid out on the floor in the streets of Itaewon -- a popular neighborhood in Seoul -- and receiving chest compressions from both first responders and bystanders alike.

The images are scary ... as a lot of these folks don't seem to have any signs of consciousness -- and you can tell how frantic of a scene it is by the reaction.

Reports on the ground say upwards of 100 people were injured total -- with a significant amount purportedly having gone into cardiac arrest as well. There are signs multiple fatalities could result from this -- some photos show cops putting tarps over what seem to be dead bodies ... but there's no official count of lives beyond just 2, per NYT.

The reason all these people congregated here is because it's one of the biggest Halloween get-togethers there in Seoul -- reports say tens of thousands of people had packed into the relatively tight alleyways, which some speculate likely triggered a stampede of some sort.

One rumor floating around -- which hasn't been substantiated -- is that the crowd crush was caused by folks rushing toward a bar there in Itaewon after word of a celeb sighting ... although it's unclear who exactly it might've been, if anyone.

S. Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has dispatched emergency services to Seoul, and the mayor is on his way back from an international trip to survey the damage and get briefed.

Lizzo dressed up as Blueface's girlfriend, Chrisean Rock, for Halloween this year -- but the getup is catching some backlash ... because some perceive CR as someone not to mock.

Lizzo trotted out a costume Friday that was, no doubt, meant to recreate Chrisean's look -- missing tooth and all -- and while it was in good fun ... there's been a lot of reactions online that aren't in favor of it and are actually condemning turning Chrisean into a Halloween gag.

The reason ... many feel like Chrisean isn't in the healthiest relationship as it pertains to Blueface. There've been much harsher terms used to describe their sitch.

Fact is, Chrisean and Blueface are in constant ups and downs -- either fighting or loving up on each other ... sometimes in explosive fashion. It's made for some great entertainment on the internet, but there's also been much concern for Chrisean these past several months.

The latest twist in their rocky relationship ... it's all being documented for a new show, "Crazy in Love," which has sparked controversy in and of itself. Some see it as exploitative.

With that in mind ... there's a good portion of bird app users who are taking offense to Lizzo's cosplay, as they feel she's making fun of someone who they see as needing help.

FWIW, Chrisean herself appears to dig it ... she's retweeted/commented on Lizzo's videos. Of course, there's also the usual fatphobic crowd clowning Lizzo over this ... but their hate is pretty much white noise at this point. Not even Lizzo is letting it get to her anymore.

Casamigos has put COVID in its rearview ... throwing the first Halloween party since the pandemic, and tons of celebs showed up to celebrate.

Let's start with the guest list, which is pretty insane ... hosts Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford, of course, Rebel Wilson, Henry Goulding, Leslie Mann, Judd Apatow, Trevor Noah, Wiz Khalifa, Tyga, Paris Hilton, Jasmine Tookes, Chrishell Stause, G Flip, Molly Simms, Taylor Lautner, Derek Hough, David Spade, Richard Kind, Ryan Eggold, Megan Fox, MGK, Josh Duhamel, Keegan Michael-Key, Chord Overstreet, Corey Gamble, Mark Burnett, Jeff Probst, Brian Grazer, John McEnroe, Patty Smyth, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Rachel Zoe, Ryan Phillippe ... and that's just partial!

The bash went down Friday night in Bev Hills ... and it's a restart of what has become the best Halloween party in Hollywood.

Apparently, guests missed Bill Maher's editorial, because all the costumes were safe -- between the lines.  Among the getups -- Yellowstone, Barbie and Ken, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm, Mister Rogers, Tinker Bell, Captain Hook, flappers ... super safe stuff.

The backdrop for the soiree was pretty amazing ... an LED-panneled tunnel with a mirrored ceiling, entering what the hosts called "the Casamigos Metaverse."

Bill Maher was on a tear Friday night over Halloween, and his message -- on the surface about "offensive" costumes -- was much more of a social commentary about the "emotional hemophiliacs" who are bent out of shape over everything under the sun.

The "Real Time" host zeroed in on media sites that are urging/warning/threatening people not to wear certain costumes. No Queen Elizabeth -- too soon, Bill asks?  No Elvis, because he once dated an underage girl.  No hobos -- a staple for years -- because they're now considered unhoused persons who are off limits. No Trump, no Putin, no Will Smith, no Johnny Depp, and definitely no vaccines.

As for Jeffrey Dahmer, forget about it, despite it being "a sensation on Netflix." Bill references Simone Biles' tweet ... "put the Jeffrey Dahmer costumes back in the closet. We ain't having it!"  Bill asks, "Who's we? Who died and made you 'The Great Pumpkin?'"

As he says, Halloween is supposed to be a festival of the sacrilegious and a celebration of the grotesque. Being outrageous that day is a release valve, he says. Other nations have similar celebrations for that very purpose ... to let people vent and let loose.

This Shocktober the celebs have been giving you tricks and treats by handing out some scary-hot selfies and sexy Halloween costumes guaranteed to have you falling all over these social media shots.

Kylie Jenner and Tana Mongeau were far from being haunt hot messes with a sneak peek into some sexy costumes ... and Jason Momoa brought his wicked good looks to IG while being covered in faux blood to get your heart racing.

Carmen Electra isn't scared to get strapped into a thrilling ride with some creepy boys and ghouls! Fasten your restraint bars, hold onto your goodies and see if you've got what it takes to find the creepy changes in these two freaky photos.

Carmen served up her hottest bad girl look while taking a spin with some spookers in the GhostRider at Knott's Berry Farm in Orange County, CA. Don't let her sleek biker gloves and innocent pigtails deter you from revving up the minor changes in the two images.

Move over Johnny Depp ... Marshawn Lynch is now officially America's most favorite pirate -- 'cause he dressed up as "Captain Black Sparrow" this week, and it was hilarious!!!

The former NFL star got in his "Pirates of the Caribbean" role for a special segment prior to "Thursday Night Football" on Thursday -- after meeting up with Tampa Bay Buccaneers' mascot Captain Fear at Raymond James Stadium.

Lynch donned a Depp-like 'fit, and proclaimed, "I'm Captain Black Sparrow in this motherf*****, man!"

FYI, his locker was labeled as "Captain Beastmode" ... but seems Lynch called an audible on that one midway through the segment.

Lynch and the mascot headed to the Bucs' 100-foot-long pirate ship at the stadium -- just before Tampa took on the Ravens -- and, let's just say Lynch enjoyed climbing up to the boat with his big boots on.

"Watch how I hit these motherf***ing high steps with these thangs!" he yelled. "I bet you this thang ride like a Caddy."

Lynch also shot off the famous cannons from the ship.

"I thought I done lost, bust my wig, boy!" Lynch said. "I done lost my eye patch!"

This isn't the first time Lynch has garnered laughs on "TNF" ... just last week, he turned into "The Alligator Man" in New Orleans when the Saints played the Cardinals.

The 5-time Pro Bowler joined Amazon Prime's "Thursday Night Football" team earlier this year ... and part of his job is to do funny "N' Yo City" skits.

Halloween is just around the corner and Memphis rapper Duke Deuce is bringing the carnage ... with his new horror-themed mixtape "Memphis Massacre 3."

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the Quality Control Music rapper on the hallowed eve ahead of his release -- one he's extremely proud of, considering he only used collaborators from his hometown Grind City.

Drumma Boy recently tripled down on the notion Memphis has surpassed Atlanta's long-running grip on hip hop ... and Duke agrees. He says there are plenty of superstars on the move -- Moneybagg Yo, GloRilla, Key Glock, Big Moochie Grape just to name a few -- and he adds ... social media has those artists and himself shining more than ever.

He does admit Memphis still has a little work to do in terms of infrastructure and popularity, but he's confident his crunk sound will create a ripple effect.

For this album, Duke is summoning power from his alter ego -- he says a doll he's dubbed "Deucifer" supplies all the dark energy used for the project. He's betting Deucifer will stir a little controversy in the space ... so, we'll just have to wait for the grand disruption.

Duke's been down with QC for several years now, and is starting to get recognition for his musical labor.

Earlier this week, he was honored by his Memphis alma mater high school ... where he received the Key to the School, was inducted into its Hall of Fame and got his own day. October 26 is now Duke Deuce Day on campus!!!

These celebrities clearly had Disney on their minds for Halloween ... 'cause they went ALL OUT dressing up as some of their favorite animated characters!!!

Allison Williams, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner are only some of the big names that took serious inspo from the 'House of Mouse' ... and they all look pretty damn good doin' it!

Kris Jenner didn't hold back, dressing up as Jack Skellington from "The Nightmare Before Christmas" ... singer Chase Hudson -- AKA Huddy -- also put in the work to look like the 'Bone Daddy' himself.

Social media star Cameron Dallas and his boo Madisyn Menchaca fell down the rabbit hole one year ... donning some serious costume detail to portray Alice and The Mad Hatter from "Alice in Wonderland."

These soon-to-be-stars clearly loved dressing up for Halloween before their big break ... but can you tell who these celebs are back when they were just little tykes?

Anne Hathaway, Ariana Grande and Cheryl Burke are just a few of the kiddos who donned a cute costume for the spooky season -- but good luck figuring out which one is them!

This actor is better known for hangin' with a group of dudes on TV ... but who is the mystery kid all ready for Halloween?

This '90s star took the world by storm with her hit show ... but is this witchy gal who you think it is?

English actor Peter Hinwood was 29 years old when he was cast as Rocky Horror -- the blonde Frankenstein-esque muscle man and one of Dr. Frank's creations -- in the 1975 horror musical "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."

Hinwood shared the big screen with Tim Curry as the lingerie-clad mad scientist who takes credit for Rocky, Dr. Frank N. Furter, Richard O'Brien as the doctor's long-haired servant and the castle's butler, Riff Raff ... and Susan Sarandon as the newly engaged gal who get stranded in the rain with a flat tire, Janet Weiss.

These lovely ladies have taken a more sinister approach to Halloween costumes over the years ... conjuring up the perfect witch costume for some frightful fun!

Vanessa Hudgens, Cardi B, Hailey Bieber, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Elizabeth Banks are just a few of the women who've fallen under witchy spells -- but who takes the cake as the wickedest witch of the west?

Kendall Jenner donned an all-black witch costume, lookin' ready to brew some potions -- her pointy hat even looks like it was made with some fresh crows! 😬

Sharon Osbourne flipped the script on the cliché ... dressing up as Glinda the Good Witch from "The Wizard of Oz" instead of her counterpart, the more commonly mimicked Wicked Witch.

Before this cutie patootie entered the fast lane and turned into a sought-after actress, she was hitting the stage as a little pageant girl, looking up to her big bro and growing up in Long Beach, CA.

This cool kiddo basically ran the 9-0-2-1-0 zip code back in the '90s, and you probably saw her walking up and down Rodeo Drive with gal pals Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth. She took a pause from her television series in the mid-'90s to star in the horror/mystery film "Buried Secrets."

If you're still stumped ... it's alright, 'cause you're saved by the bell!
