The most terrifying night of the year is near and, as every year, Halloween brings new and spooky trends. From costumes inspired by the latest horror movies to reinvented classics, this year creativity has no limits.
The roots of Halloween go back to the ancient Celts, who celebrated Samhain, a festival that marked the end of the harvest and the beginning of winter. It was believed that on this night, the veil between the world of the living and that of the dead became thinner, allowing spirits to return to Earth.
Over the years, the tradition has evolved and adapted to new trends, and has truly become a mass party and has spread around the world. The most common thing is that the streets are filled with people dressed up as the most terrifying characters, although the plans vary depending on age.
While zombies, vampires and witches are always a safe bet, this year costumes are becoming more original and varied. Some of the most sought after include video game characters as these have become very relevant in popular culture, and characters like Peely from Fortnite or the protagonists of indie horror games are in high demand.
Costumes from the 80s are not far behind, many seek to revive this decade with costumes inspired by movies like "Beetlejuice" or series like "Stranger Things." On the other hand, the trend is always marked by the most viral, in this case memes inspire original and fun costumes.
