Whether for Halloween parties or trick or treating, these fun costumes keep up with the current (and upcoming) movie trends.

Finding and Making Halloween Costumes

Some retail stores, party stores, and Halloween outlets offer a wide selection of costumes and props to mix or match for creating a great-looking outfit. For an original one-of-a-kind flare that also saves money, try homemade costumes that use as many on-hand resources as possible.

To create a superhero costume, go to dance stores and sporting goods stores for unitards, tights, leggings, and all things Spandex. For less expensive versions, try athletic clothing departments in discount retailers such as Walmart, K Mart, and Target. Sleep masks (usually sold for less than $4.00 U.S. in linen stores, retail stores, and online) can be converted easily into superhero masks. For additional costume accessories, visit consignment shops, thrift stores, flea markets, dollar stores, fabric shops, and garage sales.
