Today is October 31, when many of us go horror crazy and you’re likely to find yourself sharing public transport seats with crazed zombies, random vampires and the occasional flesh-eating ghoul (if that’s unusual). Yep, it’s Halloween (Samhain), and we’ve been trawling the App Store for something that epitomises the season - and works on an iPhone.

Imagine our delight when we came across the really rather spiffing $1.99 app, Zombie Me, which you can use to transform pics of you or your friends into the kind of zombie effects-riven visage you rarely get outside of a make up department.

We like this app because it’s simple, cheap, offers a liberal dash of ‘oh so scary’ special effects, and should make for a new generation of funked-up, freaked-out, frightening horrow show zombie profile pics on Bebo, iChat, wherever.

Make scary eyes, highlight bloody mouths, add horrifying wounds and “lots of scary elements” to your pictures, the company says. You can save the images, email them, download them and more. And the developers promise new features ahead.

It’s all very ghoul. (sorry). Get the app right here.
Happy Halloween.

By far, the best "make-up" app is iMut8r ($0.99 in the App Store). It has way better effects—truly ghoulish and high-quality. You can get your zombie on, but you can also choose vampire, werewolf, Frankenstein's monster and witch effects. Check it out.

This app has nothing on iMut8r and its double the price!!!! iMut8r is so technically accurate and its art alone makes this a must have!!!!

Actually, my friend sent me his picture using this ZOMBIE ME application. So immediately ask him on how I can get the app. Well obviously it doesn’t cost debt consolidation but its picture’s effect are awesome. I even thought it was a true Halloween photo picture with cosmetic on it. DO you know any application of iPhone for early Christmas Effects?
