Did you get this from my blog? Lol
Well I actually got the idea from Eric Rosen's YouTube video, but your blog is cool!
Lol thanks 
Yeah, Frankenstein Dracula is pretty cool
In the 2nd game black was in a OK position then he blundered the most obvious mate in 1 LOL

true, i think i might have gotten some nice pressure with the queen tho
The Halloween is pretty cool. I tried to play the Najdorf Sicilian but I kept on losing pawns because of weaknesses on the 6th rank

Brutal Gambit
Great tournament!
ok
So today I tried to play the Halloween Gambit for the special occasion! I decided to just play against random people in 3|0 Blitz.
In case you didn't know, this is the Halloween Gambit:
White sacrifices a knight for a tempo after Nxe5 and d4, and can soon play e5 and f4, storming black with pawns.
Sadly, out of 21 games, I only got 1 game with the Halloween Gambit, which was ruined because my opponent blundered their knight right after. Yes, I blundered a ton after getting my knight trapped in the endgame (don't judge me, I'm playing blitz at 11pm lol), but I managed to flag my opponent.
On a happy note, I did gain almost 90 rating points, so maybe that was the treat to the trick..? I need a better way to use that pun...
