Halloween

David Arquette's looks over the years may just make you SCREAM!

Here is a 25-year-old version of the charming actor in his iconic cop uniform ... playing Dewey Riley in the slasher franchise film "Scream" back in 1996 (left). This was the first of five films in which he portrayed the handsome Woodsboro police officer.

And, nearly three decades later, the now 52-year-old father of three recently hit the streets of Hollywood -- all smiles, hair slicked back and reppin' his favorite character, Bozo The Clown (right).

His Dewey days may be over, but he sure would kill it as a clown!

The question is ...

Celebs are getting down with the spooky spirit this year -- carving out lots of space on their IG grids and sharing their festive photos with you! It's the sweetest time of the year for all the frightening feels, so come eat, drink and be scary with Hollywood!

Gettin' spooky in the Berkshires, Dorina Medley was lit up and V on theme ... flickering over her ghostly candles, Yungblud hit up the produce aisle in full-on skeleton gear, and if you're thinkin' Halsey can live 'Without' her angel wings ... guess again!

American actor and stuntman Kane Hodder was 33 when he was first cast to play Jason Vorhees -- the revenant zombie with a machete ... disguised with a hockey goalie mask for disguise at Crystal Lake -- in the horror/thrasher film "Friday The 13th Part VII: The New Blood" back in 1988.

Kane slayed his way through the dreary set with Lar Park Lincoln as the 17-year-old with psychokinetic powers who mistakenly freed Jason from being chained to bottom of the lake, Tina Shepard and Kevin Spirtas, who rented a cabin next to Tina's ... and also survives Jason's murder attempts.

Hodder portrayed this character four times in the 'Friday The 13th' franchise.

El actor y doble de acción estadounidense Kane Hodder tenía 33 años cuando fue elegido por primera vez para interpretar a Jason Vorhees —el zombi vengador armado con un machete que usa una máscara de hockey — en la película de terror de serie B "Viernes 13 Parte VII: La Nueva Sangre" allá por 1988.

Kane se abrió paso por el lúgubre decorado con Lar Park Lincoln como el joven de 17 años con poderes psicoquinéticos que libera por error a Jason de ser encadenado en el fondo del lago. Tina Shepard y Kevin Spirtas que alquila una cabaña junto a la de Tina y también sobrevive a los intentos de asesinato de Jason.

Hodder interpretó a este personaje cuatro veces en la franquicia "Viernes 13".

These luscious ladies didn't scratch their heads when optioning the classic black cat Halloween costume over the years ... clearly clawing into their frisky and feline selves!

Bringing you all the luck this Friday the 13th ... Vivica A. Foxx, Chrissy Teigen, Lele Pons and Nicola Peltz Beckham are just a few of the wild women slaying in cat ears and looking oh so purrrfect, but which pretty pussycat is playing naughty ... and who is playing nice kitty?

Ready to attack in black, Kim Kardashian donned an all-black cat costume, lookin' fierce and feisty with her kitty cat ears and sharp teeth ... rawr!

And, Lindsay Lohan has always been down for a "Freaky Friday," but she switched it up after a Halloween shindig, showin' peace and love to the paparazzi... rockin' some lace with fake blood on her face!

These women are owning their cattitude, and their black cat costumes are top pawformance!

¡Estas guapas felinas parecen muy cómodas en su nueva piel de nueve vidas!

Te traemos toda la sensualidad este viernes 13; Vivica A. Foxx, Chrissy Teigen, Lele Pons y Nicola Peltz Beckham son solo algunas de las chicas que optaron por el estilo sensual, felino y oscuro.

Lista para atacar en negro, Kim Kardashian se puso un traje de gato negro, mirando feroz con sus orejas de gata y dientes afilados.

Lindsay Lohan siempre ha estado dispuesta a un "viernes desenfrenado", pero luego de una fiesta de Halloween, le mostró paz y amor a los paparazzi ¡luciendo un poco de encaje con sangre falsa en la cara!

A estas mujeres  les sobra actitud, ¡y sus disfraces de gato negro son de lo mejor!

Folks who wanna be Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce can play make-believe on Halloween -- and it's a lock that lots of people will do just that, much to the joy of one costume shop raking in the dough.

A rep for 3 Wishes, an online Halloween retailer, tells TMZ ... their Taylor and Travis-inspired getups this year are far and away the most popular costumes, as people snap 'em up in droves. So much so, they're completely sold out!

Customers have been able to double-dip a bit, up to this point -- 3 Wishes has had 2 different TS costume options ... a solo "Pop Star" one and a separate item that actually paired the pop star costume with a whole other football player outfit. Naturally, that's in the style of the Chiefs tight end ... right down to his jersey number.

Those were selling for $27.95 and $119.95, respectively, but now -- 3 Wishes says its inventory's been ransacked by fans wanting to resemble the new showbiz "it" couple. They had 500 of the solo TS costumes, and 300 of the duo costumes.

We're told the Taylor/Travis duo costume is their second-fastest-selling product in the company's history -- with their 'Tiger King' costume from 2020 still reigning supreme. 3 Wishes says they're out of stock right now, but will re-up on the 16th.

La gente que quiere ser Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce pueden jugar a serlo en Halloween, y hay una tienda que está muy feliz con la tendencia.

Un representante de 3 Wishes  —un minorista de Halloween en línea— le dice a TMZ que sus disfraces inspirados en Taylor y Travis de este año son, con mucho, sus disfraces más populares y que la gente está acudiendo a comprarlos en masa, ¡tanto es así que están completamente agotados!

Curiosamente, sus clientes han sido capaces de sacarle provecho a la situación. Verás, 3 Wishes ha tenido dos opciones diferentes de disfraces de Taylor: una que es ella sola como  "Pop Star" y otra que viene con un artículo extra que es el traje de jugador de fútbol americano (obviamente muy del estilo del ala cerrada de los Chiefs, hasta tiene su número de camiseta).

Se vendían por 27,95 y 119,95 dólares, respectivamente, pero ahora, 3 Wishes dice que su inventario ha sido saqueado por los fans que quieren parecerse a la nueva pareja de Hollywood. Tenían 500 de los trajes de TayTay y 300 de los trajes del dúo, usted puede hacer el cálculo.

Nos han dicho que el disfraz del dúo Taylor/Travis es el segundo producto que más rápido se ha vendido en la historia de la empresa, mientras que el disfraz de "Rey Tigre" de 2020 sigue siendo el más vendido. 3 Wishes nos informa de que se han agotado las existencias en este momento, pero que volverán a ponerse a la venta el día 16.

Jamie Foxx estaba de humor para un poco de susto este fin de semana, ya que lo vimos recorriendo el parque temático de Universal Studios, en donde se encontró con sus fans y también con algunos monstruos.

El actor pasó por Halloween Horror Nights el domingo. En la foto lo vemos posando de pie alrededor de un grupo de actores disfrazados, que parecían más impresionados que asustados. Eso podría tener que ver con la postura de Jamie aquí, ¡en modo malote!

En efecto, Jamie marcó la pauta y el equipo de Halloween Horror Nights le siguió el juego, al parecer, algo muy diferente al modo en que la mayoría de los huéspedes son tratados cuando entran en estos espeluznantes terrenos. Por lo general, los visitantes son quienes son aterrorizados por los empleados, y las celebridades no están exentas de aquello.

Por cierto, Jamie no fue la única cara famosa que disfrutó de la velada. Otras estrellas como Ariana Madix de "Vanderpump" asistieron con algunos amigos, al igual que la ex estrella de "Euphoria", Barbie Ferreriera, y la gran Nicole Richie. Todos recibieron un tratamiento VIP.

Es probable que veamos muchas más celebridades en las próximas semanas. Halloween Horror Nights es una tradición de otoño en el sur de California y eso va para la élite de Hollywood también.

Ahora, está por verse si todos pueden conseguir una foto tan impresionante foto como esta...

Jamie Foxx was in the mood for some late-night scares this weekend -- hitting up Universal Studios' creepy theme park after hours ... finding both fans and monsters.

The actor swung by Halloween Horror Nights Sunday, posing for a cool pic while standing around a bunch of the costumed actors, who seemed more star-struck than they did frightful. That might have to do with Jamie's stance here ... full-on bad ass mode!

Indeed, JF set the tone ... and the HHN crew followed, it seems. That's pretty different than how most guests get treated when they enter the spooky grounds -- usually, folks get followed around and terrorized by the employees ... and celebs aren't exempt.

BTW, Jamie wasn't the only famous face who was enjoying the evening ... other stars like Ariana Madix of 'Vanderpump' fame were in attendance with some pals, as was former "Euphoria" star Barbie Ferreriera and the great Nicole Richie. They all seemed to get the VIP treatment.

We'll probably see a lot more A-listers drop in over the next few weeks -- Halloween Horror Nights is a fall time tradition here in SoCal ... and that goes for Hollywood's elite too.

Now, whether they all get an awesome photo-op like this, though, remains to be seen.

If there's a competition for the most popular Halloween costumes, Barbie and Ariel, the "Little Mermaid" are queens of the hill this year -- and everything related to those characters is flying off shelves.

A rep for HalloweenCostumes.com tells TMZ ... those 2 themes have been knocking it out of the park for 2023, as expected with the popularity of their movies -- especially "Barbie" -- this year.

For Barbie, the company's officially licensed costumes have been selling 9x as much as they did last year ... and the site's "Barbie-Inspired" looks have also boosted 40%.

As for Ariel, her styles are up nearly 70% in 2023, too -- and the company is just hoping its inventory will be enough to get 'em through the spooky season!

Believe it or not, the movies aren't the only hot topics in the world of Halloween costumes ... we're told there's been a major spike in interest for Beyoncé and Taylor Swift looks -- obviously because of their extremely popular concert tours.

HalloweenCostumes.com has responded to the concert craze by making costume guides for each option -- a combination of some of the site's items that, when put together, make for a pretty great look-alike.

Si hubiera una competencia por los disfraces de Halloween más populares, Barbie y La Sirenita serían las ganadoras, ¡porque ambas están agotando las estanterías este año!

Un representante de HalloweenCostumes.com le informó a TMZ que estos disfraces han estado arrasando, sin duda gracias a los estrenos de este año.

En cuanto a Barbie, los disfraces con licencia oficial de la empresa se han vendido 9 veces más que el año pasado y los looks "inspirados en Barbie" también han aumentado un 40%.

¡En cuanto a Ariel, sus atuendos también han aumentado casi un 70% en 2023 y la compañía solo espera contar con el inventario suficiente para hacerle frente a la temporada!

Lo crean o no, las películas no son los únicos temas candentes en el mundo de los disfraces de Halloween. Nos dicen que también ha habido un aumento importante en el interés por Beyoncé y Taylor Swift, obviamente, debido a sus populares giras.

HalloweenCostumes.com ha respondido a la moda de los conciertos elaborando guías de disfraces para cada opción. Si combinas de algunos de los artículos del sitio, te darás cuenta de que al juntarlos dan lugar a un look bastante impresionante.

Zak Bagans is exercising his right to scare the crap out of folks at his Haunted Museum ... by bringing in some creepy-ass artifacts from famous exorcisms!!!

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ ... he recently got his hands on the fabled "Exorcism Box," which was used during the 1970s real-life exorcisms of Anneliese Michel ... whose story is the inspiration behind 2005's "The Exorcism of Emily Rose."

Zak tells us he got the box from filmmaker Christopher Saint Booth, who wanted to get rid of it after a disturbing experience, to put it mildly. While he had the box, Booth says he felt something growing inside him, and a doctor determined the growth contained teeth and stem cells.

Booth says he had an archbishop exorcise the box ... and while doing so, he saw a dark figure dart past him. Booth believes it was Anneliese, who died way back in 1976 following 67 catholic exorcism rites.

Zak says Booth told him the archbishop saw the figure too, which appeared to have Anneliese's face, and it was shaking uncontrollably as if being pushed away from the box by a dark energy. Booth believes the "Exorcism Box" absorbed all the energy from Anneliese's exorcisms.

If that doesn't give you enough chills ... Zak also obtained a copy of the infamous Exorcist Diary, which inspired the 1974 movie "The Exorcist."

There are only 6 copies of the diary, 2 of which remain in a vault at the Vatican. The diary documents a 3-month period of exorcisms on a 13-year-old boy in St. Louis way back in 1949 and includes a map of Hell.

Zak says Booth had the diary while working on a documentary called "The Exorcist File" ... and Booth says he felt very oppressed and suicidal whenever the diary was nearby.

And, get this ... Zak says Booth told him he had the diary with him in a hotel room when he saw a horned, shadowy figure appear just before something scratched his ankle and pulled him out of bed. 😱

Since bringing the items to his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, Zak says countless guests are refusing to enter the new Exorcism Room Exhibit before they even know what's inside ... with some saying they felt light-headed.

Zak is not new to the exorcism world -- he filmed the 100th episode of "Ghost Adventures" in the house where the notorious St. Louis exorcism was performed.

It's a timely acquisition for Zak with Halloween lurking, and "The Exorcist: Believer" just hitting theaters.

Have no fear, Halloween Horror Nights is here! With Halloween quickly approaching, even the celebs are feening for some fright at night, and that's why they're hitting up Universal Studios with the expectation of getting spooked TF out!!!

As you may be aware, the L.A. theme park doors have creaked open at Halloween Horror Nights, and the stars have stepped right up ... ready for thrills, chills and freaky haunted mazes!

To kick off the A-list name-drops ... Demi Lovato and Travis Barker hit the mazes running -- but not without first snapping a spooky selfie with some scary-lookin' peeps!

JoJo Siwa also came through with a double thumbs-up, while the creepy characters took over the (dance) floor, upstaging her giddiness with their fake blood and violent props!

And, Siwa wasn't the "only fan" in attendance at the iconic attraction ... Bella Thorne stood by for a spirited snap and let the dressed-up folks commit to their bit (being as in-your-face as humanly possible ... without touching the attendees of course!)

Hollywood is getting lit up at Horror Nights, and there continues to be an influx of celeb visitors ... Amber Rose, Charli D'Amelio, Kenan Thompson and Alesso have all been unmasked and entertained with some friendly frights.

No tengan miedo, ¡la noche más espeluznante del año casi está aquí! Con Halloween acercándose rápidamente, incluso los famosos están deseando pasar un susto, ¡¡¡y por eso están yendo a Universal Studios con la expectativa de salir espantados!!

Como ya sabrán, las puertas del parque temático de Los Ángeles está abierto para sus Halloween Horror Nights, y las estrellas se han acercado para vivir emociones, sentir algunos escalofríos y pasear por sus terroríficos laberintos embrujados.

Para empezar, tenemos a Demi Lovato y Travis Barker, quienes llegaron corriendo a los laberintos, ¡pero no sin antes tomarse una selfie con algunos personajes!

JoJo Siwa también se tomó una selfie con los dedos hacia arriba, mientras los espeluznantes personajes se apoderaban de la pista (de baile), eclipsando con sus accesorios.

Y Siwa no fue la única fan que asistió a la icónica atracción. Bella Thorne se quedó para una instantánea animada y dejó a los anfitriones del lugar hacer su parte.

Hollywood se está prendiendo con Horror Nights. Otros famosos que se han acercado al parque de atracciones son Amber Rose, Charli D'Amelio, Kenan Thompson y Alesso.

Tyler Mane, famous for playing Michael Myers on the big screen, is an expert on prop knives ... and despite their dull edges, he says they can still hurt someone like Britney Spears.

We got the "Halloween" star at LAX and our photog asked him to weigh in on Britney's knife dancing controversy ... playing him a clip of her clanking knives together, which she insists are just props.

Tyler says Britney could be wielding prop knives, based on the sounds they're making, and he tells us how they're different from real knives ... basically, prop knives have dull edges and a dulled tip.

Remember ... this guy knows his stuff, he's used tons of real and prop knives on the set of 2 movies as notorious serial killer Michael Myers.

But, Tyler's not saying prop knives are inherently safe ... warning they still pose a danger if the person wielding them isn't careful.

Britney's fans aren't buying her prop knife explanation ... because she's also on video with a bandage on her arm and a cut on her leg ... and cops went to her house to do a welfare check, which didn't go over so well with Britney.
