A Lanarkshire estate was treated (or tricked!) with an early Halloween costume which has left residents baffled.
The Invisible Man was spotted in Larkhall this week and it's definitely the best costume we've seen this year.
With fright night fast approaching, Larkhall Academy pupil Cole Gardiner and his mum Kim came up with the perfect Halloween illusion, reports the Daily Record.

The family, who come up with unique and detailed costumes to share online every year, decided this Halloween to go one better with an amazing Invisible Man get-up.
Cole's outfit comes complete with a missing face and body yet it has The Invisible Man's glasses perched carefully in mid-air, with his red braces and top hat completing the look as he strolls through the town.
Creative mum Kim, a make up artist and salon owner, said: "It literally took me weeks to make. At one point it nearly broke me because I couldn't get my head around how to do it and for it to look the part, but we got there in the end and we are really delighted with the outcome.
"Cole decided to try it out before Halloween and we went outside and took some pictures in the dark and it just looks fab."
Kim's pictures of 11-year-old Cole dressed as The Invisible Man quickly garnered over 15,000 likes, comments and shares on social media in a matter of hours and she was inundated with messages about the fab costume.
Kim added: "People have been messaging me from all over the UK asking me how I did it and saying they can't quite work it out. It's the perfect Halloween illusion.

"I have another costume to complete for Monday so it will be all go this weekend to get my other son Cade ready for his trick or treating. My youngest son Crue is only three and he is superhero daft so thankfully he just wants to be Iron Man."
Previous years have seen the boys dress up as toy soldiers complete with a tank, Still Game's Jack and Victor and the famous Home Alone bandit costumes.
