You will never believe what this douche wore on Halloween
Look we love half nekkid gals and candy as much as the next hairy-palmed, heavy-breathing content gimp. 

But, at the end of the day, there's no denying that Halloween belongs -- ultimately and truly -- to one key demographic: Kids. 


Every year, in between the x-rated costume contests and underground orgies, the adults in this country somehow forget that this whole fucking holiday is primarily for ages, like, 5 to 12.  

Luckily, the biggest man-baby of 'em all -- the illustrious, woman-beating, tantrum-throwing, Chris Brown -- is taking Halloween back for his people (the children). And his methods are nothing short of incredibly racist.

Check the jump for pictures of Chris Brown's mindblowingly offensive costume.

The benefit to being an "adult" is that the best holiday Halloween (sorry, Christmas) doesn't just fall on one scary day. Nope. The entire month of October is filled with opportunities to slather yourself in fake blood and pervertedly eye young'uns in slutty nurse costumes. 

Because you need to know where to wear your pregnant nun costume, County Grind created the ultimate Broward and Palm Beach County guide to Halloween happenings. 

The guide will be constantly updated, so don't forget to check back regularly. If you feel like we've missed any events, please let us know by emailing music@browardpalmbeach.com.

What is it about humans that we just love being terrified? What's the appeal of a panic attack? On the surface, not much; hives, hysteria, and misery aren't sexy to most. But maybe the mystery and unease acts as a doorway to our inner psyche? 

Unfortunately, psychology isn't one of our strong suits, so figure it out for yourself. 

Today, on Halloween, we thought we'd help get you to that dark place whatever the reason is that you need to go there with these, the scariest music videos of all time.

They say copycatting is the highest form of flattery, but does that count when your ex dresses up as you for Halloween?

Sum 41 singer and guitarist Deryck Whibley somehow convinced current girlfriend Ari Cooper to dress up as his ex-wife, Avril Lavigne, and her new fiance, Nickleback's Chad Kroeger, for a Halloween party. Albeit a hilarious effort, it might've been less creepy had it not come from an ex-husband. Avril has yet to comment, but her new beau came to the rescue via Twitter, "Hey Deryck, loved the costumes. We were going to dress up as you guys this year but all the parties had celebrity themes. haha!" Still not too sure if those two should consider themselves anymore relevant than Sum 41, but we'll let it slide.

This hasn't been the first time musicians have dressed as other musicians -- so meta -- in celebration of Halloween. Take a look below at our list of below.

Guess Where I'm Peeing

Raggy Monster on Eating Joggers, Bow Wow Wow, and Filming Their New Zombie Video at Speakeasy Lounge

Saturday night marked yet another Moonfest, Clematis Street's annual Halloween free-for-all. For the first time in the event's 20 year history, there was a cover fee, but luckily that resulted in a safety facelift and solid lineup of local acts, not a lack of bodies and boredom.

On the hunt for the cleanest place to pee, New Times made a break for Longboards and ran into West Palm Beach band Raggy Monster's lead vocalists, Billy Schmidt and Rachel Duvall. With a big gig and video shoot coming up next weekend, it was the perfect time for a little chat.

Screen Shot 2012-10-29 at 9.47.27 AM.png

Spooky time is upon us once again! Most use Halloween as an excuse to dress like assholes, getting belligerently drunk and howling obscenities into the night. We are no exception. Everyone needs to blow off a little steam. Who are we to judge your slutty bumblebee costume? Or that slutty Pocahontas getup? Whatever helps you get your rocks off is more than fine by us, you slutty apple, you.

To set the mood for said spooky time, we present this list of musical monsters, because... Well, this is a music blog. Scrounged up from the broken battlements of our castle in BroCo, this countdown is not for the faint of heart. Be forewarned: Dancing inmates, a singing turd, and Porky Pig lay waiting to collect your soul after this jump. If you are pregnant, or have a preexisting heart condition, tread carefully.

My All Time Best Musical Halloween Costumes; From James Hetfield to Bjork

Ms. Jackson, cause you're nasty. 
I, like children and crazy people, am obsessed with Halloween. The best thing I bought this year? A big, beautiful green heirloom pumpkin. I brag about it when people come over, make people pet it like a cat. Seriously. It's that kind of obsession.

As a small child, my mom's friend, Kathy, made me the most fantastic costumes ever. She was a seamstress for Broadway productions. She created both E.T. (my initials) and Rainbow Brite costumes that children today, who don't even know who these fabulous characters are, would beat each other to wear. They were that good. 

But then for about a decade, I wanted to be a cat. Boring. As I aged, the more I wanted to kick Halloween ass. Like totally overtake it. One year, a tiny leather skirt, purchased at Flamingo Mall, and a decent tan inspired me to become Tina Turner. Ever since, it's been primarily musical costumes for me. I thought I'd share my past ideas with you to inspire your musical getups and offer a few lessons I've learned over many years of screwing things up.

Otto von Schirach's Halloween Costume Will Make Your Mom Horny at Splatter Rama

By Liz Tracy Thu., Oct. 25 2012 at 12:08 PM

Otto+von+Schirach+OVS.jpg
Nothing in this sunny Southern summer land indicates horror more succinctly and in a pleasurably dark manner than the wild world of Miami's own IDM master Otto Von Schirach. He'll lock you under his deep bass and beats and scare the shit out of you, and you'll love every pee-in-your-panties moment of it (you big sissies). That's why Blindspot and Radio-Active Records booked him to perform on All Hallow's Eve for their monthly double gory feature Splatter Rama.

Ben "the Baptist" Baptiste is hosting this Halloween edition, featuring screenings of Re-Animator and Night of the Creeps. They've moved the night from Cinema Paradiso to C&I Studios in FAT Village to accommodate the blood lust of the creepy crowd (that's you!). Expect a crazy ass dance party with DJs Richard V. and Sensitive Side, the requisite costume contest, giveaways from Salty Eggs, vegan horror-themed mobile munchies and cupcakes, and what's that? Full liquor and beer bar all night long. You read correctly.

We hit up von Schirach to ask about his most horrifying moments on stage, scariest Halloween memories, and he brought up Costes and making our mamas horny.
