Tricked Out

It's that time of year when snot-nosed little shits come begging for free candy. Get a job, ya fourth-grade freeloaders! But whether you spend your Halloween dispensing Hershey bars, playing "Stairway to Heaven" backward or hacking up perky-breasted coeds, the following selection of Murder Is Fun! music will have you in stitches. No, really -- it's scary. Like when we all thought Marilyn Manson was Paul from The Wonder Years scary.

Hometown Heroes Halloween Dress-Up Tips

Tech N9ne
The Look: Little Red Ridin' in the Hood

Essentials: Ask your barber for a Marley-meets-Medusa do. Burn your blue jeans. Go all out in blood-red -- hair, pants, shoes and Underoos. Go off your meds. Look for inspiration in the latest issue of Soldier of Fortune or Guns & Ammo.

Wes Scantlin
The Look: Kurt Cobain's redneck cousin or the guy sitting next to you at Benders

Essentials: Black stocking hat and/or baseball cap worn backward; stringy, shoulder-length brown hair; "Fred Durst Rules!" T-shirt. Take a shot of Jack, smoke two Pall Malls and imagine getting kicked in the nuts to achieve the nasal wail perfected by Puddle of Mudd's lead singer.

Get Up Kids
The Look: Hi, welcome to Recycled Sounds, can I help you?

Essentials: Goodwill chic: semi-ironic band T-shirt, brown cords and black-rimmed Buddy Holly glasses. Stub your toe, bite your lip and think of all those junior high wedgies you suffered. Somehow piss off half of your hometown by doing something wild. Like being successful.

Glen Campbell
The Look:Rhinestone Cowboy Essentials:Ol' Glen is more of a Branson balladeer than a KC crooner, but it's always good times with skin-tight, check-my-package Wranglers; polished, black shit-kickers; a snot rag; and a belt buckle the size of a Geo Metro. Oh, and the rhinestones. Got to have the rhinestones. Daydream about Wichita.

Charlie Parker
The Look: Sax-blowing sultan of the speakeasy

Essentials: Your nicest suit, your biggest set of lungs and a shiny alto saxophone. Shoot some heroin and die at age 34 in the New York apartment of some chick named Baroness Pannonica de Koenigswarter. Proceed not to rest in peace in Kansas City's Lincoln Cemetery.
