Some of the best pet Halloween costumes from around the world
What is Halloween if not an excuse to dress up and demand candy from your neighbours? An excuse to force your pets into increasingly ridiculous and elaborate outfits, of course.
We’ve searched the internet high and low, and we feel confident saying these are some of the best pet costumes you’ll ever see. So without further ado…
Since Halloween takes place during autumn (or falls in fall, if you’re American), a pumpkin costume feels particularly apt.
Here’s an adorable pug-kin:
And an equally adorable (but much tinier) tortoise:
Others make use of pumpkins to set the scene, like the Instagram famous Toby Toad, dressed as a witch:
Or these heroic pugs:
And French bulldogs:
A few pet owners paid homage to royalty with their pet costumes. Like this cat, who’s dressed up as Marie Antoinette, which feels fitting:
Or this adorable child-and-pet duo as Queen Elizabeth II and one of her beloved corgis:
However, pop culture costumes are the clear favourite. Take these dogs who look ready to board the Hogwarts Express, for example:
Or this pup who watched Squid Game with his humans and enjoyed it a bit too much:
If there’s something strange in the neighbourhood, you better call Grizzly for all of your ghost-busting needs:
Meanwhile, you’ll probably want to avoid the next few dogs, whose costumes err on the scarier side of things. Like this elderly chihuahua dressed up as Pinhead from the Hellraiser movies:
Or this little guy dressed up as Pennywise the clown from Stephen King’s IT:
As well as Moses, who is the spitting image of Chucky the possessed doll:
Politicians in the US even got involved in the fun as part of the annual Congressional Dog Costume Parade on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. We particularly love the Cowardly Lion accompanied by his very own Dorothy:
