Looking for a better way to celebrate Halloween this year?   Maybe your children have outgrown the pursuit of candy via begging.   Maybe you are just sick and tired of shelling out all that money for costumes when it's cheaper to just buy them the candy directly.   Maybe you lament the commercialization of all American holidays.   Well, your opportunity to do something more in the spirit of the holiday has arrived thanks to the internet!

Weird USA now provides you the opportunity to adopt a virtual ghost.   There are over 40 ghosts to choose from and it's an entirely free service.   The site notes "All these ghosts are looking for a loving home."   Presumably they will not haunt you if you adopt one but I don't know about the other ghosts already "living" in your residence.   They could get upset about this.
