I saw a kid with an invisible man type set up with an oversized suit coat and a little wire at the top holding up a pair of glasses so it appeared they had no head.

That's cool !
I had a bunch of kids dress up as my dad and not show up
There was a couple at a party i went to that were each dressed as a giant boob. When they stood next to each other they completed the rack.
Nice. I hope everyone took the time to make every dirty pun that the costume demands.
They totally did! It was great.
Nice ha ha
The costumes of the people who really enjoyed being in costume.
Including yours.
Friend and her husband were Kamala and Kanye -that was good. Another friend's family went as Gravity Falls and that was fun. Several cute spidermen and general fairies and princesses.
It's rural here and I guess that comes with the implication that a lot more of the costumes are going to be basic. Regular vampires, regular witches, etc. So for a lack of a better word, I probably overdo it every year because I do it in the form of cosplay, which used to be normal before I inherited my current home and the social environment changed. I might be biased since they're a common subject in my art, but the main exception were some Pokémon characters, namely from Pokémon Horizons. I know one very well-dressed Liko and one very well-dressed Roy were wandering around telling people they were looking for treasure (candy) and the adventurer Lucius (using that character as a parody of how nearby is Bernie Sanders' childhood home, which itself is a hotspot), nods to the Pokémon Horizons series.
I just feel alone since I don't enjoy any costumes... I'm amazed that people enjoy dressing up. It's just missing entirely in my own personality. Fuck I'm boring.
I don't like it that much to be honest, but on the other hand sometimes I'm amazed how dedicated some people are
that is a bummer.
My two-bit hypothesis is social anxiety and cynicism, you should make yourself dress up and conquer that.
you get to live once, and each moment passes quicker than the last.
The inflatable dinosaur carrying a kid costume and it's variants are still great. I feel like I saw more amusing variants of it this year, but I don't member the details.
I saw a couple kids wearing matching Jason costumes. I hope they had a great time jump scaring their friends with identical twin shenanigans.
There was a group all in matching striped prisoner outfits. I noticed they took care to walk in a line as if chained together.
There was a version of spider-man I need to look up on Marvel Unlimited. It looked like a mix of the Iron-Spider and one of Miles' costumes. It looked great, and made me curious if Miles has an iron spider storyline yet.
I saw someone dressed up as a biblically accurate angel, with a mask/helmet thingy that was a throne/ophanim... I love biblically accurate angels so much and it made me really happy to see that!
I saw nothing. Zero.
There was one lady with two kids walking down my street. No idea what their costumes were. Not a single porch had lights on.
