The extinction of dinosaurs has always been a big mystery, with several theories trying to explain what happened.

Until now.

This Halloween, Galway’s streets will be taken over by fancy dress parties, traditional games, Trick or Treating, and a re-enactment of Michael Jackson’s Thriller dance routine.

On Friday 30, the streets and pubs of the Latin Quarter will be the venue for a massive fancy dress party. And for those who like to compete, there are rumours that a €5000 prize will be awarded to the best costume will be prizes to the best costumes: 1st place €1000, 2nd place €500 and 3rd place €250.

Saturday 31 will have quite a few “Halloweeny” activities. In the afternoon: a kid’s fancy dress party where the costumes have to be environment friendly, and Trick or Treating and traditional games along the Latin Quarter streets. At 4pm comes the big event of the weekend – a re-enactment of Michael Jackson’s Thriller dance routine and video in The Fishmarket at the Spanish Arch. The Galway Abooo Festival reaches its finale with the Saturday Night ‘Spooktacular Street Show’ – street performances will take place across the streets of the Latin Quarter from 8pm, leading to a display at 8.40pm at St. Nicholas’ Church.

To help bring as many people as possible to Galway, Irish Rail is providing a few “Ghost Trains” from Dublin at a special rate of €10.

More info can be found at the festival’s official page.

This all looks promising indeed.

This is probably the best Halloween costume I have ever seen.

Just… Awesome!

This is the closest you’ll ever get to finding out if the carpet really does match the blue drapes.

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons, Playboy will feature Marge Simpson in their November issue. The details of the “shoot” aren’t many, except for Hugh Hefner’s tweet and TMZ saying that she’ll be posing in a bunch of sexy cartoon lingerie.
