Our Favorite Flipnotes from The Second Part Of "Halloween 2022"

In our first topic winning selection this week, by Darlex Luigi is engaged in a spooky Halloween exploration, when suddenly, from within the darkness, a fiendish ghost attempts a haunting.

Lucky for him, this ghost is terrified of flashlights!

As well as great cartoon animation and perspective movement, the use of the textured pencil works brilliantly to create the gloomy environment and pool of light in which he walks.

A final touch of dot deletion for the flashlight beam completes these incredibly atmospheric lighting effects.

Inspired by the comedic styles of yesteryear, 😃📱OmⒶⓇ has created this hilarious graveyard robbery sketch featuring a fantastic OC comedy duo and some extremely wobbly skeletons.

We were very impressed with the character design and performance, as well as the inventive animation techniques used skillfully at speed 7 to put the bumbling pair through their nefarious nocturnal paces.

Beware the moon! But especially the flaming red eyes in the blackness!

A bully gets just what’s coming to them when they pick the wrong victim on Halloween night, in this thrillingly vengeful topic winning entry by ⒷIⒷⒷⒶ.

Darkly twisting an audio sound track with great characters, imagery, and text, a gruesome discovery leaves us all guessing as to the culprit of the heinous crime, in this mystery, who-done-it, MV by Momo♥™.

Spooks, specters, and creepy jesters all shake a leg for a splendid Halloween jig in this malevolently manic MV by DECA.

Trick Or Treating is a time for scary costumes and lots of Halloween candy. And this topic winner, by JoseFigueC certainly doesn’t disappoint!

Showcasing OC outfits including Chucky, Freddy Krueger, and the Annabelle Doll from The Conjuring, the gang score big with their halloween treats.

This Profile Character sing-along MV by Kêithkash★ embraces the joys of Trick Or Treating as well as a host of other Halloween characters and traditions, while keeping our toes tapping and our spines tingling.
