Trick or trend: Top costumes you should rock this Halloween

On the 31st of October, Halloween is celebrated as a way where patrons dress up in their most scariest outfits. In mzansi, we have seen many internet users adopt this American tradition where they not only dress up but commemorate this day.

Even though this day isn’t part of the South African tradition, over the years we have seen how we have adapted US customs and made them our own.

On Halloween day, you want to channel the scariest, ugliest monster you have ever seen. According to US beliefs, it scares away the evil spirits that were believed to have awakened during that time.

Now you probably wondering what would be suitable for a Halloween party and how you can win ‘Best dressed’ at this year’s party. Well, worry not as you will get everything you need.
