The spookiest month of the year is coming to a close, which means it's time to hang up that costume and vote for October's Meme of the Month!

From AI slop like the Rumpelstiltskin video to unavoidable fan art trends like "Malfoid," this month blessed us with some great competitors from across all meme genres.

If those don't click with you, how about "Biddy Blas," "Scientists Reveal the Hi," the "Black Cat Clapping" memes or maybe even Ethan's Clubhouse, not to be confused with the flurry of recent memes about Ethan Klein's affair.

Make your voice heard! Check out the poll below and be a part of history by voting for October 2026's meme of the month.

The Meme of the Month is a poll commissioned by the Know Your Meme research staff at the end of each month to commemorate the single most notable meme that is on the rise, as determined by your vote and our community. For past winners, please visit our archives.
