Anyone who shops at Target or Walmart knows that we are in the full swing of spooky season. Skeletons are at every turn, pumpkins are grinning from all of the shelves, and autumnal scents are wafting in every aisle. If you scrape together the courage to glide through the Halloween sections, it's tough to ignore the costume wall, a collection of the season's trendiest, most unoriginal costumes all cheaply made and exorbitantly priced.

For the year's most original costume ideas, there is no better place to shop than on the Internet. Full of ideas and exploding with possibilities, people online have been able to share the most hilarious and amazing Halloween costume ideas, all without leaving the comfort of your couch. All you need is a strong imagination, a reference photo, probably an old flannel, and maybe even a sewing machine to achieve the best aesthetics of the creepiest holiday.
