Halloween Costumes of 2014 Showcase

As Halloween unfortunately draws to a close, it seems fitting to go out by highlighting some of this year's awesome costumes. The dedication it takes to pull this stuff off makes every single repost very much deserved, so please excuse me while I join in on the fun. Vicarious dress up frenzy, engage!

Movie characters really got the spotlight this year, but I suppose that should come as no surprise given the gigantic weight that motion pictures have in our culture. There's lots of fan favorites up there, and I think the costumes were all handled beautifully. Join me in a slow clap for these fine individuals, won't you?

It's a shame to say goodbye to the spookiest of all holidays once more, but at least now I get to look forward to it all over again. Until next time, I will honor Halloween in my heart and try to keep it all the year. Yeah.
