Splatoween 2025: Choose Your Spooky Bestie in Splatoon 3

Forget personality tests and friendship bracelets. The real measure of compatibility is whether you’d rather hang out with a zombie, a skeleton, or a ghost.

• Team Zombie: Are you looking for a friend who’s a great listener, albeit a bit single-minded about brains? Maybe you appreciate their slow, determined pace and undying loyalty (literally). Just… maybe don’t invite them to a potluck.
• Team Skeleton: A friend with no guts, but all bones? Skeletons are low-maintenance, have a killer sense of humor (all puns intended), and are always down for a rattling good time. They’re the life of the party, even if they’re, you know, not alive.
• Team Ghost: Want a buddy who can pass through walls and give you the best insider info? Ghosts are the ultimate companions for stealth missions, and they’ll never borrow your clothes. Sure, they might be a little transparent with their feelings, but who isn’t?

Personally, I’m leaning toward Team Ghost. They seem like they’d respect my personal space and wouldn’t eat all the snacks. A zombie would just moan and try to nibble on me, and a skeleton? I have enough skeletons in my own closet, thank you very much.
