TELL US: What Will You Be Wearing on Halloween?

The selection is vast and the options are only as limited as your creativity.

Halloween is the time of year when young and old alike get to play dress-up. In some areas it has become a hoiday to rival Christmas when it comes to the amount people are willing to spend on costume material, decorations, gifts and candy, according to an article in the LA Times. The trend isn't just an American one, according to Bloomberg Businessweek.

The origin of All Hallows' Eve is thought to date back to the Celtic festival of Samhain, according to history.com. Over time it changed from a night focused on warding off ghosts and spirits to one focused on child-friendly activities.

Yet, when it comes to your own Halloween customs, what do you do to celebrate the holiday? Do you put out the skeleton? Turn on the orange lights inside a freshly carved Jack-o’-Lanterns next to the bowl of candy and wait for the small ghosts, goblins, Batmans and fairies to treat, and hopefully not trick?

Or do you put on one of the trendy, popular adult costumes, like a Sexy Big Bird or a Zombie, and head out to your own party?
