29 Weird Halloween Costumes Ranging From Topical To Tacky
If Christmas is about tradition, Halloween is more about topicality.
There are few greater thrills in life than showing up to a costume party in a getup that references current events.

We even found some wild costumes for your pets! Buckle up, folks: It’s going to be a weird Halloween.
