Good afternoon guys and GHOULS! It’s that time of fear where we put on our homage to the old Tales from the Crypt host’s penchant for groan-inducing scary puns. This started as a tribute to the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror credits but also owes a debt to the great work over at Deadspin of turning the corpse of former Oakland boss Al Davis into a Cryptkeeper spoof. If you have even a passing interest in the NFL and aren’t reading that, then you need to reassess your priorities.

So here we go with a list of Biglaw firm names for your Halloween pleasure:

EERIE Gottlieb
