Besides Christmas, summer vacation or their birthdays, Halloween is one of the most exciting times of the year for kids — and for some grown-ups, too. For some, it’s easy to decide what character they want to dress up as for Halloween. For others, finding the right costume might be more of a challenge.
Question: What are you dressing up as for Halloween this year and why did you choose that particular costume?
Lily Miles
Age 9
I’m going as Mal from “The Descendants.” I really love the movie and Mal is my favorite character.
Greta Andrews
Age 9
I’m going to be a vampire queen. I chose that costume because I wanted something princess-y and something scary.
Ava Puckering
Age 9
I’ll be a cheerleader zombie because I like gymnastics and cheerleading is pretty close to gymnastics. I’ll just add some zombie makeup.
Acadia Campbell
Age 10
My costume will be a zombie schoolgirl. That really stood out to me. All the other things were good or silly and I wanted something scary.
Tyler Murphy
Age 10
I have a King Kong suit we ordered online. I like King Kong because he is a giant, hairy gorilla and I’ll have a reason to bang on my chest rapidly.
Emily Carey
Age 10
I’m going to be a savage because that’s what everyone in my family calls me. I’m going to look like someone who lives in the wild.
