Halloween 2014 has six animated Doodles


Google is celebrating Halloween 2014 with a set of delightfully spooky doodles on its homepage.  Unfortunately, they are not visible in India homepage – but surprisingly visible in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Pakistan sites.  The doodles, IMHO, are more of fun, rather than evoking horror – the theme of Halloween.

2 sets of doodles each are the handiwork of Google’s monsters artists (Google’s own description, not mine), namely Markus Magnusson, Olivia Huyhn, and Taylor Price.
Magnusson has drawn two bright and colourful doodles for Halloween 2014 :
  • the first of which depicts a chaotic graveyard taken over by green zombies – who are more clumsy than scary; and,
  • the second has the full moon dropping down and transforming the 1st ‘O’ in Google into a Werewolf in mock Santa suit.
Olivia Huyhn’s doodles are dark, but equally funny:
  • the first depicts a witch brewing a potion, which is spewing bats, ghosts and a hand – normally these are put ‘into’ the potion; and,
  • the second pictures a lone ghost – probably the one released from the potion – chasing a terrified man, only to be scared away by a terrier.
Taylor Price’s doodles have a more sombre setting, but are the most funniest:
  • the first depicts a scarecrow of which even the crows are not scared, and a mouse dares to pop up its straw hat ; and,
  • the second depicts two smiling, bobbing Jack-O-lanterns, which are neither scary, nor horrifying.
Here are the 6 doodles for Halloween 2014.
