THE OCTOPUS' GARDEN

Here is an ensemble that is sure to lead to some awesome hugs. 

CHICKEN OR THE EGG

Perfect for those who already treat their pooch like their baby. 

WAVE YOUR STINGERS IN THE AIR

Awesome conversation piece, but probably a poor choice if you actually want to have conversations with others.

SOMETHING TO SLITHER INTO

This takes fashion's idea of snakeskin to a whole new level. 

HUNGRY HUNGRY RACCOON

If you are truly dedicated to your animal costume, then be prepared to adopt this critter's diet for the 24 hours of Halloween. 

NON-FAIL WHALE

This may be the first time social networkers are happy to see this smiling sea creature in front of them. 

NO SMOKING

You may need an extra set of hands to help you keep track of all the feet on this "Alice in Wonderland" caterpillar costume. 

CYBER STAR

This girl spreads smiles, rainbows and the mind-numbingly addictive Nyan Cat jingle wherever she goes. 

PLAY 'EM OFF

Good News: Keyboard cat has started doing outside gigs.

Bad News: He still only knows one song. 

JURASSIC PARK REDUX

They may have tiny arms, but you still never mess with a T. rex. 

CRAWLING ALONG

If only kids grew up this slowly. 

FOUND HIM

This outfit is a great way to pick up clowns and keep tabs on that curious Nemo. 

EPIC SOCKS

We don't know whether to hug this giant sock monkey or fear it. 

SWEET STRIPES

We're blinded by the preciousness of this junior zebra and the white expanse behind him. 

HEADS UP

Warning: Only wear to parties with high ceilings. 

MYTHICAL MAKEUP

When you spot the last unicorn at your shindig, you know you're throwing the ultimate Halloween party. 

WINGING IT

Give those sad, broken umbrellas a respectable resting place, like a bat costume.
