Though the Christmas ads popping up before web videos might say otherwise, it is indeed Halloween. 

Thus, you’re probably getting your costumes, decorations, etc. ready for tonight. Before you get too into preparations, perhaps you should take some tips from some of comedy’s best and brightest.

Conan O’Brien’s prop master Bill Tull has some budget costume tips. 

Stephen Colbert has a quick how to guide on how to carve jack-o-lanterns.

Also, Dan Harmon has advice to specifically dress like Dan Harmon if that’s something you’d be into.

While you might not have the scariest Halloween, you’ll have plenty of fun doing all of the above, screwing up pumpkins and costumes for cheap.
