The North American box office saw a decline this past Halloween weekend, with ticket sales dipping below $56 million, marking the second-lowest earnings of the year. "You Can See Everything," a documentary about Elizabeth Holmes, and "Clayface," a Warner Bros. release about the Batman villain, led the pack in box office takings.

"You Can See Everything" topped the charts with $10.6 million from 2,655 theaters, narrowly beating "Clayface" by $200,684 in its third weekend. "Clayface" earned $10.4 million, bringing its domestic earnings to $44.1 million against a budget of $44 million. The animated film "Wildwood" from Laika secured the third spot with $7.5 million, double the $7.5 million from its first weekend, pushing its total to $25.9 million.

"Wicker," a comedy fantasy starring Olivia Colman, debuted at fourth with $4.1 million. The comedy-fantasy "Street Fighter" held the fifth position with $3.2 million. Other notable expansions included the Sundance indie "The Only Living Pickpocket in New York," which added over 1,000 screens in its second weekend and pulled in $1.9 million.

Netflix reported ticket sales from its original World War II film "The Mosquito Bowl," which made $455,000 in its third weekend, bringing its total to $1.2 million. Despite the dip in box office revenue, the domestic market remains up over 17% from the previous year, totaling nearly $8.5 billion to date.
