💑 Couples Costumes
Instantly recognizable and you don't have to explain it to a single person all night. My husband will actually agree to this one.
Beetlejuice Costume Couple
Layered flannel and burlap means you're genuinely warm, which matters when you're out on a wet Oregon night.
Couples Scarecrow Costumes
Retro is having a moment and this is the version you can put a jacket over without ruining the look.
Grease Couples Costume
Inflatables are all over my feed this year. Zero effort, and you can wear a sweatshirt underneath — which I will be.
Inflatable Costume 2 Pack
A good starting point if you haven't landed on a theme yet — lots of pairings in one place, both halves ship together.
Couples' Costumes
Skeletons never go out of style. Thin enough that you can layer thermals underneath and nobody can tell.
Skeleton Couples Costume
Gothic vampire is one of the two biggest looks this year. The cape hides a whole lot of warm layers.
Vampire Couples Costumes
The classic nobody needs explained. Sizes run small on these — order up one.
Spirit Halloween Adult Devil Costume Kit
Full coverage top to bottom, which is the difference between enjoying the night and going home at eight.
Pirate Costume Couple
Glow is the fastest-growing trend this year, and on a dark rainy street it's genuinely a safety feature.
LED Light-Up Couples Costume
For the year you want to participate without committing. These get worn all October, not just one night.
Matching Halloween Sweaters For Couples
Long sleeves, long skirt, and the face paint does the heavy lifting. Best photos of any couples look here.
Day Of The Dead Couples Costume
Bright, comfortable, and it works whether the party's themed or not. Track jackets are secretly warm.
80s Couples Costumes
Pre-wrapped, so you skip the gauze disaster. Goes right over a base layer for a cold night.
Couples Mummy Costume
👩 Women's Costumes
The one costume that never sells out of my size at the last minute. Layer a long-sleeve thermal underneath and it survives a damp PNW trick-or-treat without a coat ruining the look.
Witch Costumes for Adults & Kids
Glow and light-up is the biggest costume trend of 2026 and it's genuinely practical here — it gets dark early and rainy on the coast, so being visible on a dim street is a real bonus, not just a look.
Women's LED Light-Up Costume
Gothic vampire is the grown-up costume of 2026 and this one reads expensive in photos. Full-length skirt is the practical win — you can wear real boots and warm tights underneath and nobody knows.
Gothic Vampire Dress
Dark angel is the low-effort version of the gothic trend — black dress you probably own, wings, halo, done. Comes in kids' sizes too if you want a mother-daughter match.
Women's Dark Angel Costume
Flannel, burlap and boots — the warmest women's option on this whole board, and very on-theme for a PNW October.
Scarecrow Costumes For Women
No wig, no face paint, works on every body type. The lowest-effort look that still photographs well.
Greek Goddess Costume
Layers over a long-sleeve tee without looking wrong, which is how you get through an outdoor party out here.
Women's Pirate Costumes
Best cost-per-wear here — the hat, boots and denim all go back into regular rotation on November 1st.
Women's Cowgirl Costume
One piece, no zippers to wrestle with, and it packs flat if you're changing at the party.
Skeleton Costume Women
Costume sizing is all over the place, so I wanted a real extended-size pick here instead of just saying size up.
Plus Size Halloween Costumes
Retro icons are their own category now. Throw a faux fur wrap over it and you're set for a cold night.
1920s Costumes
Sequins catch party lighting beautifully. Get the version with a slit unless you plan on standing still all night.
Mermaid Costume For Women
👨 Men's Costumes
Gothic vampire is having a real moment for 2026 and this is the version that photographs well without looking costume-shop cheap. The cape is the whole look — everything under it can be his own black clothes.
Men's Gothic Vampire Costume
Inflatables are all over my feed this year and honestly they're the lowest-effort costume there is — pull it on over a hoodie and jeans. Just check the battery pack has a fresh set before you leave.
Adult Green Dinosaur Inflatable Costume
The easiest yes if you're being dragged to a party you didn't plan for. Muscle-suit versions run hot indoors — fine for us out here, but size up if your party's inside.
Men's Superhero Costumes | Sizes M-XL
🧒 Kids' Costumes
Superheroes are still the safest bet for the 5-10 crowd — nobody argues about wearing it. Size up one so a fleece layer fits underneath, because our trick-or-treat nights are always 45 and drizzling.
Kids' Superhero Costume Set
Skeletons never go out of style and the glow version solves my biggest trick-or-treat worry — kids being seen on a dark, wet street. Thin enough to layer a thermal underneath too.
Glow in the Dark Skeleton Costumes
Witch is the #1 kids' costume every single year and it's the one that actually gets re-worn to school parties and dress-up days. Get the hat with a wire brim so it survives more than one night.
Kids' Witch Costume
Kids lose their minds over these and it goes right over a coat, which solves the whole cold-night problem. Fair warning: they're wide, so doorways and car seats take some planning.
Kids' Inflatable Dinosaur Costume
🧸 Toddler Costumes
A hooded romper is the toddler cheat code — it goes on over regular clothes, there's no mask to fight about, and it's warm enough that you're not carrying a shivering two-year-old home by the third house.
Toddler Dinosaur Hooded Costume Romper
Classic for a reason — it's padded, so it doubles as a warm layer, and every single photo of a toddler in a pumpkin costume is a keeper. Ours got worn three years running by different kids.
Toddler Pumpkin Costume
Look for the versions with a soft attached cape rather than a tie — way safer for a two-year-old and it stays on when they inevitably fall in the driveway.
Toddler Superhero Costume
👶 Baby Costumes
Baby's first Halloween is a photo op, not a night out — go soft, warm, and easy to unzip for a diaper change. Pumpkin never misses, and the whole family can build a theme around it.
Infant Pumpkin Costumes - Sizes 0-24 Months
A fleece bunting is the only baby costume that actually works in our weather — it zips over a onesie, covers the feet, and you don't need a coat fighting the whole look for photos.
Baby Bunting Halloween Costumes
Plush and hooded, which is really all you need for a baby in October. Pairs perfectly if an older sibling is doing the inflatable dinosaur — instant theme with zero planning.
Baby Plush Dinosaur Costume
👪 Family Matching Costumes
Matching family pajamas are the move when you have kids at wildly different ages — nobody feels too old for it, they're warm, and you actually re-wear them all October instead of once.
Family Matching Halloween Pajamas
Skeleton is the easiest family theme to pull off because it scales — adults, teens, toddlers, even the dogs. Everyone matches without anyone having to be a character they hate.
Matching Skeleton Family Costumes
For the family that wants to coordinate without committing to full costumes. Glow print, sized for everyone, and they get worn to school and pumpkin patches all month instead of once.
