Our Verdict
Celebrate Halloween with this whimsical Windows 7 theme–complete with Jack-o-lanterns, skeletons, and creepy sounds.
This desktop theme includes artworks by three members of the DeviantArt community: Chad Savage (“Autumn Harbinger,” “Zombo-o-Lanterns”), Rado Javor (“Jack-o-Lantern,” “Trick or Treat”), and Senyphine (“Skeleton in Love”). You’ll come across several creepy sound effects from members of Freesound.org: Herbert Boland and inchadney (under Creative Commons 3.0); and Edwin P. Manchester, jih, and Nimbyc (also under a Creative Commons license).
Note: To install the Windows 7 theme, just unzip the archive file and double-click the themepack within. Windows does the rest. This desktop theme works under Windows 7 only. You can download Savage’s Autumn Harbinger and Zombo-o-Lanterns wallpapers separately if you want to decorate your older version of Windows.
