Halloween costumes can easily be bought at any local store, and there are always hundreds of Halloween shops that open seasonally. But when you go to these stores, they’re just filled with the same old superhero costumes and sexy nurse costumes we see every year.

But what’s more fun than shopping for an already made costume that tons of people will already have? Making one.

Getting together with the gang and deciding what you all want to dress up as and making them together is more fun than shopping online for an expensive and cheaply made costume that you'll only wear once.

The best part about having an original and cool group Halloween costume is all the compliments and praise you and your squad will receive. There’s nothing better than having people appreciate and notice all of your hard work and creativity.

The most wonderful time of the year is Halloween. Yes, Christmas is pretty neat, and gifts are cool, but Halloween is a special time of year. Hanging out with cool friends and putting together costumes that are sure to impress.
