Cutest Costume Ever Alert
Bearded Dragon Buddy Vibes
Kids bring the ultimate creativity and cuteness to Halloween. It’s like magic how they transform into tiny wizards, animals, or things you didn’t even know could be costumes.
Ever wonder where all this fun comes from? Turns out Halloween is loaded with spooky stories and quirky traditions that make dressing up an absolute blast.

Eleven’s Got Nothing On This Halloween
Turned a tricky situation into costume gold. She nailed it.
Over 2,000 years ago, ancient Celts celebrated Samhain (say it like "SAH-win"), marking the end of summer and the start of the spooky season. They believed spirits were wandering around, so they lit bonfires and donned disguises. Yep, costumes have ghostly roots!
Fast forward, and Halloween turned into a fun night to play dress-up, ditching the scares for the most part.

Jack-o'-lanterns? Those weren’t always orange pumpkins! In Ireland, folks carved turnips inspired by a dude named Stingy Jack who tricked the devil (kind of a big deal).

Wheelchair Digger FTW
He LOVES rolling around in this cool digger setup. Grandma won Halloween points too.
And the candy! Trick-or-treating stomped in like a sugar-fueled party starting with ancient food offerings to spirits, medieval neighbors asking for prayers in return for treats, and songs or tricks for goodies in Scotland and Ireland.
By now, it’s the sweetest part of Halloween with tons of candy bars and zero pressure to hand out fruits or coins.
