This year's Halloween hadn't thrown up vast swathes of creepy creative, yet the work produced for 31 October 2017 from the likes of Sainsbury's, Harley-Davidson and Tennent's has proven it's possible to create spooky advertising without resorting to cliches.
Renault and Publicis Conseil have subverted the genre with a duo of What We Do In The Shadows style social films, while Fanta has embraced the power of 360 video and VR to give viewers an actual fright. Special mention goes to Giffgaff, which has upped the ante yet again for the season it deems more important than Christmas.
Catch up on the Halloween films below and make sure to vote for your favourites in Creative Works.
