As mentioned yesterday, Casey Neistat, Jesse Wellens and crew filmed around the East Village — and other parts of the city — for a "Return of the Jedi"-Speeder Bike Chase video for Halloween.

They released the video today ...


Happy Halloween from 11th Street



This building on 11th Street between Second Avenue and Third Avenue has the Halloween spirit ... (or maybe it's a warning to either potential developers or tenants...?)





... and the pièce de résistance — the bloody-bag-of-appendages decoration ...



(Or maybe it's a food trend #HoofInABag ...?)

[Updated] Roaming East Village streets somewhere



EVG regular William Klayer spotted this today on Astor Place... be warned!



Unless this is more new, bespoke seating.

Updated 12:35 p.m.

A clearer picture of what happened is beginning to emerge... EVG coffin contributor Derek Berg took this photo yesterday... (which is what might happen if you carry a coffin through the neighborhood ...)



Officials from the Department of Design and Construction are seeking the identity of the two men in the photo to seek their permission to turn the coffin into an attraction for an upcoming Astor Alive! event.
