Halloween Costumes for the Chronically Online

Despite Halloween being less than a week away, the internet has been dropping and snapping their best pop culture-inspired looks. While actors and content creators can’t dress up as Hollywood characters due to the new SAG AFTRA rules, it doesn’t mean civilians can’t. Everything from what we looked like when we were a baby to Spongebob and Glinda hooking up has been fair game for the holiday. While we finally got a 48 oysters get-up, we still need a Roman Empire ‘fit, so someone better get on it (this technically counts as a scab-free idea, Ryan Reynolds!) Here are our favorite costumes from top to Bottoms.

Tess and Anna from Freaky Friday

A match made in the Disney heaven (or hell if you’re on Mr. Toad).

The only couples costume that comes with a free car.
