WE RECOMMEND

Tomorrow is Halloween so let us check out these creepy gadgets made for mouse potatoes. Full list after the jump.

USB Skull Protecting Your Desktop
This veinous skull is another great gizmo that should get you a free room with padded walls if you use it any time other than Halloween. Once plugged in it will glow menacingly and wait for a victim. It's got a built in motion sensor that sets off a loud shriek if anything moves in front of it. Great for watching over your computer while you're away from it.

Body Mouse

Now if you really want people to stay away from your stuff, start using this disgusting mouse. This far too lifelike big toe shaped Body Mouse. Teeth, lips, hair, tattoos and Toe shaped mouse buttons adorn this abomination in all the wrong places. Hopefully this concept mouse never made it to production, if we saw one in person we'd probably send all our candy plunder the wrong direction.

Chainsaw Thumbdrive

What Halloween would be complete without a chainsaw wielding maniac? This Resident Evil branded chainsaw is exactly what you need to chase zombies and the undead. Well, it will at least hold your left4dead save-games or something like that. The saw-blade is the memory stick and the motor is the cap. Perfect if evil gets into your hand and you have to cut it off. Complete with blood splatter and dried blood decoration throughout this originally came bundled with a special Resident Evil 5 branded Xbox 360. You should still be able to find one or two of them on eBay if you look hard enough.

USB Jack-o-Lantern Lights

For more traditional decorations, try these USB powered Jack-o-Lantern lights. Brando has something for every occasion, and Halloween is no exception. Each set of these has 8 LED infused Pumpkins for decorating your computer area.

USB Skull Speakers
Definitely the most over the top, gore fest gadget we've seen are these screaming skull speakers. Perfect for watching horror movies these USB-powered speakers work even on computers with no sound card. These are so 'metal' that they should come with Dethklok on DVD. Again, use for special occasions only or get yourself committed.

rayD8gig

Creepy trick-or-treater mimobot from rayD8gig easily makes our favorites list for subtle Halloween fun. This 8GB mimobot glows in the dark and comes with a couple of creepy faced versions. Creepy in more of a Scooby-Doo style not Norman Bates creepy. This mimobot comes with software that will let you customize what sound is played when you plug and unplug it from your PC. This was a limited run, only 200 were made, so again you may have to hunt if you really want one.

Creepy Skull Webcam
The official webcam for the House of Slytherin, this Cobra and Skulls webcam is pretty dark as well. Get your dark mark ready for the VOIP-who-must-not-be-named with this 1.3 megapixel sensor camera. You can also use it with a Windows power toy to keep an eye on your candy jar or catch Adam in the next cube, when he sneaks onto your PC and changes your desktop background into Richard Simmons. Go Malfoy on him and make him eat slugs like he deserves.
