Spooky season is Jonathan Dale Bentonupon us.

NFL players celebrated Halloween over the weekend by showing up to their games dressed in their best costumes. Some teammates coordinated while some stars made their own statement.

Early on Sunday, the New York Jets took an early lead as the team with the most holiday spirit.

This year, Myles Garrett showed up in another chilling costume. Last season, he expressed his love for his favorite holiday with a haunted house featuring all the quarterbacks he's sacked. On game day, he impressed with a Vecna costume from the popular Netflix show "Stranger Things."

Did the Browns defender top last year's costume? Or will someone else take the crown as the Pumpkin King?

Here's the best Halloween costumes from Week 8 of the NFL season:

Myles Garrett — The Creeper

Myles Garrett committed to another full costume and this one was … creepy … literally.

The defensive end showed up as The Creeper from the 2001 horror film "Jeepers Creepers" with a full mask, gloves, bloodied shirt and tattered coat to top it off.

Jordyn Brooks — Fresh Prince

Jordyn Brooks, born in 1997, channeled the 1990s for his Halloween look. The boom box, bucket hat and graffiti details also paid tribute to the Seahawks wearing their throwback uniforms.

Cameron Thomas — Mr. Incredible

Mr. Incredible is here to save the Cardinals season. Or at least bring some smiles. Cameron Thomas dressed up as the Disney super hero. No cape, of course.

Joe Burrow — Alien

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow got in the spirit on travel day with this alien mask and a NASA sweatshirt to show he's not of this world.

Jets defenders — Akatsuki from 'Naruto'

Jermaine Johnson, Will McDonald IV and Bryce Huff are warriors on the field and chose to band together for a fitting costume: members of the Akatsuki from "Naruto." Johnson wore an orange spiral mask as Obito Uchiha and McDonald IV wielded a large blade.

Cordarrelle Patterson, Quincy Williams — Joker

A popular costume returned as both Cordarrelle Patterson and Quincy Williams showed up as Joker. The Falcons running back wore a mask while the Jets defender opted for face paint.

Laviska Shenault Jr. — Minion

Laviska Shenault Jr. from the Carolina Panthers went all out in a blow-up Minion costume.

Preston Smith — Michael Myers

Preston Smith looked extra spooky in the Lambeau Field parking garage in this Michael Myers costume.
