It's October, the spookiest month of the year – and Facebook is into it.
The social media platform just introduced new versions of all six reactions, called Halloween Reactions.
Halloween Reactions are replacing regular ones for the weekend, so settle in.

The Like and Love reactions self destruct, apparently being eaten by invisible monsters.
The Haha reaction becomes a joyful witch – but we assume she is maniacally cackling "MUAHAHAHAHA" on the inside.
A spooky ghost fills the role of the Wow reaction.
Frankenstein's monster shows off his vulnerable side in the Sad reaction.
Use this one with caution, as it could seem insensitive if something truly sad happens.
Watch out for the jack-o'-lantern, because apparently they are ANGRY about pumpkin spice culture.
The Halloween Reactions are only available on Facebook for a limited time, so get your spook on while you can.
