Inktober is a yearly challenge for artists to draw one illustration per day during the month of October. There’s an official prompt for each of the 31 days, though some artists prefer alternative prompts pertaining to their favorite fandom or theme to help get their pens moving. (Inktober is not easy.) Just clicking any one of these hashtags will make your eyeballs happy for hours:

• #31witches (Witch-themed)
• #Drawlloween (Halloween)
• #Drawtober (Halloween)
• #BNHAinktober (My Hero Academia)
• #BTSinktober (BTS)
• #Linktober (The Legend of Zelda)

This year, it’s the spooky, scary Halloween-themed Inktober pieces that we’re most excited about. These pieces are wonderfully weird, magnificently macabre, spectacularly spooky, and even more alliterative adverb-adjective combinations to describe how just plain cool this artwork is. Take a look at some of our favorite Halloween-themed pieces from Twitter and Instagram for Inktober 2018… if you dare!

13. Creepy Crawlers

You’re separated from the rest of the party. Hearing footsteps you light a torch and find yourself surrounded in a sea of creepy crawlers that part to allowing you deeper into the dungeon.#inktober #inktober2018 #drawtober #drawtober2018 #drawtoberquest pic.twitter.com/4HDwemEdlX
