This is an amazing resource of Halloween costume ideas. All these costumes have won a local contest, and for good reason! Imaginative and extremely effective, you will find yourself returning to this section over and over again.
A little sample of what you will see here include everything from a mini Mr. T to a pop art version of a Stepford Wife. In addition, many costumes take their inspiration from game shows such as Wheel of Fortune and Plinko.
It seems like people have a lot of fun recreating their favorite movie characters. Considering so many of them won contests, it’s a favorite of contest judges as well.
