For costume enthusiasts or candy lovers, Halloween is a wonderful holiday.

For some, it is a chance to show off their creativity and/or sewing skills. For others, it is a time to mingle with friends and eat as much candy as you possibly can before your sugar rush is over.

With that said, Halloween costumes are an art form in themselves. Some can be simple, others can be over the top, and some aren’t scary at all.
