If you love hosting and love Halloween then you’re probably wanting to host a fun costume party! You can do host a costume party all year round but it of course is especially fitting during the months of September and October.
I always do this thing called Hallo-giving as a Canadian as Halloween and Thanksgiving are both in October! So, I request all my guests to wear costumes! I’ve done a few theme parties in the past and will continue doing them as everyone has so much fun!

Great ideas! I love Halloween as a celebration.
Such lovely ideas here! I love the decades idea and of course the more classic cowboy or pirates vibe. I once went as a female Robin Hood (Disney version) since Robin isn’t a gendered name anyways.
Thank you for this great list. I will be looking to buy us all costumes soon and it’s great to have a list, without having to trawl the internet!
My little one is already telling us what costume she wants. It will be great to have her more involved in Halloween this year.
