All the cool kids will be totally jealous.

What do you mean you're only decorating your house? Decking out the trunk of your car is where it's at this Halloween.

You can totally transform the back of your car from a boring old truck to something spooky, scary, clever, or creative. Get inspired by these insanely fun "trunk or treat" ideas, from replicas of your favorite fast food restaurants to movie and TV-inspired trunks. No matter where you're parking your car, these will make your trunk Halloween ready.

And, btw, no, Halloween isn't cancelled this year. But if you're not trick-or-treating, consider these creative at-home ideas.
