Bicycle Classic Halloween Playing Cards

 Halloween themed decks of playing cards used to feel like a novelty but now they seem to be putting out more every year. I guess they know there's suckers like me out there that have to have them!

 

 One of this year's new offerings is the Classic Halloween deck from Bicycle. These are standard poker size cards but as you can see, what's not standard is the inclusion of a third Joker! It's and added bonus for me as a Headless Horseman collector that he makes an appearance. The card back is simple black and white and nicely incorporates ghosts, pumpkins, and spiders in their webs.

 

 The numerical cards are fairly standard but the court cards have fun split designs. Jacks are animals (familiars?), Queens an assortment of women, and Kings various monsters. I really like the cartoon artwork in this deck because it reminds me of Disney's Skeleton Dance.
