Halloween, many people’s favorite holiday, has quickly come this year. Many people take this month to consider their costume ideas and express their creativity and skills. With the many movies that came out this year, there’s many options to take inspiration from. Heritage students are on the look out for thrilling and creative outfits to sport during this year’s Halloween holiday event.

Costume stores are popping up left and right, and with every Spirit Halloween, another Halloween fan regains their yearly joy. Beetlejuice 2, Deadpool and Wolverine, Inside Out 2 and Wicke are set to have a big impact on our costume decisions. Viewers are ready to begin dressing up in outfits customized to their favorite fictional or non-fictional characters.

We’re hoping students take this year’s opportunity to be creative, bold, and homemade! Embracing their individuality, or part of representing their group of friends or family.

“I think for sure the Wolverine and Deadpool movie is going to be inspirational, for both individual and group inspired costumes,” said Joseph Crowell (12).

Crowell is debating between dressing up as Batman or The Flash this year, and he’s not the only one. Many students love superheroes and love picking their favorite to dress up as. With so many to choose from, including heroes from DC and Marvel, there’s a variety for people’s preferences. Including new superhero additions such as Deadpool and Wolverine with the recent movie coming out July of this year.

“I’m hoping to see group inspired costumes after BeetleJuice 2 and Inside Out. For family costumes I think Bluey and Descendants [The Rise of Red] will be influential,” said CTE teacher Amy Woolsey.

Halloween may be known as a celebration mostly meant for children who enjoy trick-or-treating and eating candy, but it’s for everyone! What some don’t notice is the spooky season is for more than just the youth, it branches out to adults as well. Halloween doesn’t have an age limit or certain look, it depends on the ideas of everyone participating.

“I hope to see creative and homemade costumes this year. I’d love to see how people interpret looks and adapt them to fit their style,” said librarian Bailey Sharp. With Halloween falling on a Thursday this school year, we hope students take this opportunity to bring themselves and their costumes to school. We hope to see everyone’s time and effort put into their creative costumes, and we hope you are excited as well. Happy Halloween to everyone!
