The ghouls who went on looting sprees as Hurricane Sandy devastated the city spent Halloween behind bars.
Fifteen people were charged in Queens and 10 in Brooklyn for ripping off stores that had been hit hard by the storm.
Others remained free — thanks to Twitter. The company turned down a request from NYPD to reveal the identity of a suspected ex-Occupy Wall Street protester who invited people to go looting in lower Manhattan, a law-enforcement source said.
Twitter’s decision was “not civic-minded, but not surprising either,” NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said.
In the Rockaways, three people were charged with breaking into a Radio Shack and helping themselves to electronics. One of them, Anthony Felder, 27, was also charged with assault and resisting arrest.
He and more than a dozen other suspected looters were awaiting arraignment.
Brooklyn cops arrested six people for looting a liquor store on Flatbush and Nostrand avenues in Midwood. Con Ed had temporarily shut power to the block.
In Coney Island, cops busted looters preying on stores on hard-hit Mermaid Avenue. One alleged looter, Sarina Cole, was arrested at a Key Food.
Another, Errol Hunt, was seen crawling under a metal gate from inside a 99-cent store, after allegedly taking four flashlights and $427, prosecutors said.
Area store owners said the looting had been rampant on Monday.
“I saw 10 or 20 people running with TVs through the streets. They were yelling, ‘Plasma! Plasma!,’ ” said Peter Paik, whose salon was also robbed.
“They were young, they were old, they were boys, they were girls . . . I’m astounded.”
Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said the city would have “zero tolerance for looters who would exploit a natural disaster like Hurricane Sandy.”
