Freak-Out Friday: Dr. Eggman Takes Over Mexican TV On Halloween

Halloween was good this year, wasn't it? Lots of cool, spooky vibes and the kids doing all of that 'trick or treat' stuff. Marvellous. But if you live in Mexico and turned the TV on the morning of October 31st, you'll have likely jumped out of your seat as you saw this face staring back at you:

No, Dr. Eggman isn't really invading the real world in a Sonic X style - this is popular Mexican TV celebrity Pedrito Sola, who hosts the 'Ventaneando' programme. And the show's make-up and wardrobe team have clearly done an excellent job transforming the charismatic presenter into a menacing character hell-bent on taking over the world.

You can check out Pedro Sola's X account here for a number of videos and photos of him getting prepared for the role (and this video shows him in action a little bit too, if you're interested). But we think it's an inspired outfit and very much worth sharing to the world. Well done, Mr. Sola! Please don't turn us all into robots.

Sola wasn't the only one in dress-up for Halloween either - his co-hosts also got in on the act, as you can see below.
