Halloween's a wonderful night for getting in costume and tricking people, so grab your Android, slap this iPhone Theme on it, and go see how long it takes your friends to realize they've been had. Bonus points if you can show them how awesome Android's home screens can look by switching back to a more creative theme once their minds have been blown.

Windows Phone

Like Windows Phone, but useful

Say what you will about Windows Phone, dressing your Android up as one for Halloween can also lead to some fun pranks. Also, considering the robust Android offering Microsoft offers, this could also be a gateway into some of their apps you'd never considered (or known). No Ninja Cat costume is complete without this Windows Phone theme!

Updated October 2020: I didn't publish any new themes this year, which is a major bummer, but there's more coming. Mark my words, there are more themes coming next year once the chaos of 2020 is over!!
