Free Halloween Fun: Themes, Screen Savers, and Fonts to Ward Off the Holidays
It's that time of the year again, when days get short, nights get
long, and Christmas seems just over the horizon. Perhaps
Halloween is Nature's way of slowing the inevitable slide to the
holidays. If you're planning a Halloween party instead of making
your holiday gift list, how about printing out invitations in a
Ghoulish font? And if you're busily hanging up paper ghosts and
spider webs, don't neglect your computer: We've got several free
wallpapers and desktop themes to choose from, including a festive
Day of the Dead theme and mutant zombie-jack-o-lantern wallpaper.
