Fans will have the option to choose from many different outfits from the film like Barbie and Ken’s beach, rollerblade, and cowboy and cowgirl costumes! This costume is great for any children or adults who want to dress up for Halloween.
Spider-Man
Spider-Man always finds a way to be at the top of any Halloween costume list. In fact, 2.2 million children around the world dress up as Spider-Man every year! Who wouldn’t want to dress up as the web-slinging superhero?
Princess Ariel – The Little Mermaid
Ariel will be the princess of Halloween this year. Disney decided to make a live-action version of the classic The Little Mermaid. This has sparked the interest in dressing up as the iconic Disney princess this Halloween, but Ariel isn’t the only character from the film that you may see on the streets. Ursula also has been trending recently. Princess Ariel and Ursula would make great mom-and-daughter costumes.
Mario – Super Mario Bros
Earlier this year, Super Mario Bros. was released and became the second highest-grossing animated film of all time. It is behind the 2018 Pixar blockbuster, Incredibles 2. Many will dress up as Mario this year, but you may see other notable characters from the franchise while trick or treating this Halloween. There may be a few trick-or-treaters dressed as Luigi, Princess Peach, and Bowser too.
Wednesday – The Addams Family
A classic Halloween character has had a revival this last year. Jenna Ortega’s fantastic performance as Wednesday Addams in the Netflix Original series has made this costume one of the best costumes for Halloween this year. Will you do Jenna Ortega’s iconic Wednesday dance in this costume?
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce
Taylor Swift is one of the biggest stars on the planet, so it is only fitting that she would be one of the most popular costumes this year. Fans will be dressing up in Swift’s different show-stopping outfits from her Era’s Tour. If you are a couple, you might want to try being Taylor and NFL star Travis Kelce. The two together have broken headlines over the past couple of weeks, being one of the biggest stories in sports and pop culture.
Ahsoka Tano – Star Wars
Disney’s new hit series, Ahsoka, was recently released, and fans are buzzing after the season finale. The fan-favorite character finally was made into a live-action show, after years of only being in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series.
Eddie Munson – Stranger Things
The latest season of Stranger Things introduced one of the most lovable characters in the series. Eddie Munson is played by Joseph Quinn. The Hellfire Group leader costume is fairly easy to put together with his classic Hellfire Club t-shirt, wig, and jeans.

Michael Myers
It isn’t Halloween without Michael Myers! This classic Halloween costume continues to be one of the most popular costumes each year. All you need is the infamous mechanic jumpsuit and a creepy Michael Myers mask! Who wouldn’t want to dress up as this iconic Halloween character?
Dinosaur
One of the original costumes for Halloween is the dinosaur costume. There have been many variations of it over the years like masks, outfits, and now inflatable versions.
