30 Funny Halloween Fails That Didn’t Go According To Plan
Halloween requires a level of crafting ability that I simply do not have. I can picture an incredible jack-o’-lantern in my head, but once I start cutting, we’re getting two triangles and a mouth. Maybe a tooth if things are going well. I know my limits.
Still, I respect anyone willing to put some effort into the holiday. Buying a costume online or attempting a Halloween-themed dessert should be relatively straightforward, but even those can lead to disappointment. Then there are the squirrels, who see your porch decorations as a seasonal buffet.
These funny Halloween fails are a reminder that you can plan everything and still end up with something worth photographing for entirely different reasons. At least when no trick-or-treaters stop by, you get to keep all the candy for yourself.
