Numerous factors go into deciding what Halloween costume you should wear when spooky season is upon us. If you are someone who isn't too fussed about wearing the same costume every year then deciding what to go as for Halloween might not be that big of a deal. On the other hand, if you are someone who puts a lot of work into your costume and counts down the days until Halloween, planning who or what to go as can be much more time-consuming.
Your personality is the main determining factor as to what costume you should wear on Halloween. Who you are really wearing it for and whether you are dressed to impress, scare, or make someone laugh also play a part.
If you're still undecided about what to dress up as this Halloween, then take this quiz, answer the questions contained within, and we'll give you some ideas.

Ghost. Really? So unoriginal. I was gonna go as a Slytherin witch, I wanted to see if this had any good ideas. NOPE. Guess Iโm going as a witch.

Same here! I have no idea how to dress up though. I canโt walk through a sheet. Besides, my parents wonโt let me. I went for trick-or-treating only twice in my life. Iโm 11 RN.
Maybe try a camper from โPercy Jacksonโ or a witch/wizard from Harry Potter. People would know what you are, and both arenโt badly priced and can be easily DIYโd. I was going as a witch from the Slytherin house, so maybe we would match!๐คฃ
Thank you so much! Iโll be sure to try it out. I appreciate it very much that you replied.
