These Are the 10 Most Popular Halloween Costumes in New York This Year
Which Halloween costume will reign supreme this year?
The spookiest day of all is weeks away and people everywhere are getting ready to suit up for a night filled with tricks and treats.
Part of the fun is figuring out what to wear on Halloween. While some want to dress up as something entirely unique and clever, others want to look just like their favorite character or celebrity.
What makes the latter fun is how valuable it is on a historical standpoint. The top costumes of the year are an excellent indicator of what was dominating pop culture back then.
For example, Monster High costumes were on the rage in 2012 while Austin Powers was the go-to outfit in 1997.
So, what are people currently obsessing over in 2024? Here's what the 10 most popular Halloween costumes are saying, according to fashion experts at Boohoo.

The fact Halloween falls on a weekday is also sparking renewed calls to push Halloween to become a weekend-only holiday.
