   Halloween is that time of year when just about everyone tends to let loose and perhaps occupy the life of an entirely different character for the day. Some people take it beyond simply dressing up in, say, a Wonder Woman costume and otherwise conducting everyday duties like normal. Some people actually inhabit the character they are dressing as for Halloween.  For those who take their costume and Halloween experience to the next level, it might make sense to create that sense of fantasy, magic, and holiday multiple times throughout the year -- not just on Halloween. However, you might...

    If you have children, you might be wondering what the most popular (and the least popular) kids Halloween costumes are and where to get started when it comes to cobbling together your little one’s costume.

Any Goth kid might have told you that pulling off the Goth look entails a little more than just wearing all black, dying your hair black, and spending a considerable portion of each day brooding.  In the days of Wonder Woman costumes and Harley Quinn costumes, you might be looking for something a little more edgy and distinct.
