horror was everywhere during the time. While it’s celebrated in October, an
infamous incident from March is still haunting people. The Will Smith slap-gate
incident took place a few months back, yet it is still in people’s minds as a
horrific event. Why are we saying this? Because a Halloween costume revived the
