Halloween parties, coast to coast!

Celebrate Halloween with these ghoulish photos from around the country

Halloween rears its decapitated head but once a year, which is probably a good thing because we doubt we could handle dressing this outrageously, eating this much candy corn and kissing this many strangers in sexy vampire costumes all year long. (OK, maybe we could handle just a touch more of the sexy vampires...)

Cities all over the country are celebrating Halloween this year with spooky, sexy and silly costume parties. We've gathered photos from some of the best—and earliest—bashes so we can all enjoy this night of mayhem over and over again.
