HIGHLIGHTS:  Around one in four adults will dress up for Halloween this year.  The top costumes we’re planning are a fictional character, an animal, or a creature.  Only 23% are wearing a “scary” costume this year.  13% said a “sexy” one.

FULL STORY:  A new Halloween poll found around one in four adults will throw on a costume this year.  22% dressed up last year, and 27% are planning to this time around.

It didn’t look at the specific costumes people are planning, but did look at TYPES of costumes.  Here they are . . .

1.  A fictional person or character.  44% said their costume fits that category.

2.  An animal or creature, 19%.

3.  A concept, 16%.

4.  A living person, 14%.

5.  A historical figure, 13%.

6.  An object, 11%.  Another 11% said none of the above.

39% would describe their costume as “creative.”  30% said “simple,” and 30% also said “funny.”

Only 23% are planning a “scary” costume this year.  13% said “sexy.”

If you’re doing a couple’s costume, you’re not alone.  Our partner or spouse is the #1 person we coordinate costumes with.  Our kids are next, followed by friends and family.

11% of people who’ve already bought their costume say they’re coordinating with a coworker this year.
