Not all Halloween costumes require layers of makeup, fake blood and dark capes. Sometimes they can be subtle. Take the character Jim from US version of The Office – one year he went as a bloke called Dave by wearing a name tag that said “Dave”, another year he went as Facebook by writing “book” on his face.
Guardian tech reporter Alex Hern has added fangs to his Twitter profile picture and the word “spooky” to his screen name – and that’s his costume sorted.
