Halloween is easily one of my favorite holidays and the costuming is no small aspect of that to me.

I know for some, costuming is a lot of fun and so a costume is chosen very carefully, and for others costuming is an obligation and not much thought is put into it. But even if you don't care much about the costume, sometimes a lot of thought is still put into make the costume as convenient as possible.

So I would like to ask what you are going as for Halloween this year, and your reasons for it

We are going to reuse a costume from years ago, Scarebears! We just bought some carebear costumes and modified them. We are hosting some friends this weekend who are pretty low key, so we are going to have a little 4 person halloween party Sunday night, so we didn't want to spend a bunch of money to do something elaborate. Plus, we wanted to be cozy since we're just chilling at home. My partner is going to be a cannibal bear, and I'm going to be a mummy bear. Easy peasy!

What about you OP?? Happy Halloween everyone!! 🎃

I'm putting together a Spot costume (from Across the Spider-verse).

Originally I wasn't going to put anything together because I've just been generally pretty tired; but all the costumes I have are either not work-appropriate or are likely too niche to be understood.

It's actually been pretty fun, though it's also been my first experience with fabric paint and I'm not sure it set properly, so I'm just not going to wash it until after Halloween.
