Beneath the sea this Halloween lies a host of creatures with names that can put a chill up your spine–ghost fish, spook fish, coffinfish, goblin shark, vampire squid, wolf eel, viper fish, black dragon, bat ray, moon jelly and bloodbelly comb jelly are a few. On terra firma life is no less interesting. Here are just a few Halloween themed events happening on just a single day this week!
