Yes, it’s Halloween, and to make sure your in for a treat instead of a trick, we’ve come up with the top 5 gadgets to summon the spooks to your home and office.

USB Skull Drive

Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit

If you’re the creative type or going to be throwing your own Halloween party, then the Dremel Pumpkin Carving Kit from Firebox is going to come in handy. Usually when faced with a whole pumpkin to carve, the scariest moment is slicing into your left thumb as you try to make both eyes eerily symmetrical. This kit is dead easy to use; simply hollow out your pumpkin, download the stencils from this link, stick one to your soon-to-be vegetative piece of art, and start scoring away at the outer skin.

All Occasion Light Display Projector

Continuing on the Halloween party idea, why stop at decorating a vegetable- why not your whole house? The All Occasion Light Display Projector from Hammacher Schlemmer will do to the outside of your house what cotton wool does to the inside- transform it into a spook den. Only this device uses light which is much more hi tech than something you would otherwise use to remove your make-up. Thankfully for us in the UK, the projector is weatherproof.
