In the spirit of Halloween (OK, maybe it's because you guys just love terrible wiring jobs), we've rounded up seven more horrific (scary) wiring jobs.

These entries were sent in by some faithful CE pros who have come across their fair share of wiring nightmares.

We have more terrible jobs from cable guys and, sadly, from installers who just don't care.

You guys aint seen nothing yet. I am going to nag my boss to post pics of the clean up job we are on right now.

I am still waiting for a picture with a burnt rat that chewed through a wire. I always hear about that. Ohh, “yeah a rat chewed through the wire”... Or “there was a dead rat in there”. Haha, but seriously, these wiring jobs are a 60Hz nightmare, can you say ppbbzzzzzzzz. I can just hear the snap crackle pop when they turn on the amps.
