Halloween has always been a major event over in the US. From what I have gathered (mainly from TV, so not the most reliable source) it seems that the streets are littered with children of all ages dressed up as ghouls and ghosts and Steve from Minecraft. Their parents either following them round in normal dress or dolled up to their eyeballs in costumes too.
Gradually, year on year, this American craze is creeping in to British culture and more and more families are getting involved. Naturally, we are still far more reserved than our American friends, but that’s to be expected.
If you’ve caught the halloween bug and are planning on hitting the streets to dabble in a bit of trick or treating, then keep reading because we’ve found some of the most creative, cheapest and funniest halloween costumes that have been caught on camera.
