20 Vintage Halloween Photos Of Hollywood Pin-Up Girls And Starlets
Halloween connoisseur Brenda McNeilly normally collects vintage jack-o-lanterns, but she couldn't resist a pile of Old Hollywood publicity shots for Halloween when she came across them from an online seller.
The up-and-coming starlets in these photos from the 1930s and '40s aren't afraid to show a little leg as they get into the spooky spirit. They often pose with large Halloween props, like German composition jack-o-lanterns and American pulp paper jack-o-lanterns.
Check out these vintage Halloween photos.
