And if you’re planning on donning an awesome costume on Halloween night, you’re in good company, pandas. According toStatista, a whopping 73% of Americans have plans to participate in Halloween festivities this year.And when it comes to dressing up in costume,US Newsreports that 47% of Americans have an outfit planned. The top ten most common costumes people search for on Google are witches, Spider-Man, dinosaurs,Stranger Thingscharacters, fairies, pirates, rabbits, cheerleaders, cowboys, and Harley Quinn. But if I had to guess, I would say that Barbie, Ken, Taylor Swift and Oppenheimer will be popular looks this year as well.

To learn more about Halloween costumes from a certified spooky season expert, we reached out to Deepak, a content creator atMunchkins Planetwho has created many blog posts on Halloween looks. Deepak was kind enough to answer some questions forBored Pandaabout what makes an excellent costume.
As far as what factors we should consider when choosing a Halloween costume, Deepak says to keep it simple. “Select a costume that is comfortable to wear and move around in. Stay within your budget, and try to avoid expensive Halloween outfits, instead be creative with DIY,” the expert recommended. “By adding a few accessories like LED lights, makeup, or face paint you can make any boring costume a stunning masterpiece.”
But if you need even more inspiration, there are plenty of other costumes you can view that have been shared on Munchins Planet. Deepak also sharedthis article, which includes a weeping angel statue, a jellyfish, a headless boy, a Marshmello costume and many more brilliant and creative looks.
As far as advice for choosing a costume, Deepak says his best tip is to not try to reinvent the wheel. “I’m not discouraging thinking out of the box,” he explained. “What I’m saying is we already have a lot of popular costume ideas from famous Disney characters – Ariel fromThe Little Mermaid, Beetlejuice, Jack and Sally fromThe Nightmare Before Christmas… The list goes on and on. Pick anything from the existing popular ideas, and give it your own DIY touch to look different from the crowd.”
This has to be my favorite project and probably my best Halloween costume ever. It took about two months and cost only 50 dollars. I had a lot of help from a buddy of mine, whose help was invaluable.
