Are you planning to greet the little ghosts and goblins who’ll be roaming your neighborhood tonight? It must bring back memories of those Halloween nights from years past—pillowcases full of candy, homemade costumes, and the thrill of one more house before curfew.

What was your favorite Halloween costume growing up? Were you the type to go for spooky and scary, or did you like to keep it fun (and maybe a little glamorous)? Share your story in the comments below, and feel free to post an old photo if you have one!

My older brother dressed as a glamorous lady. I went as a hobo and my younger brother went as a ghost. Our mom was not happy with that. He cut eye holes in one sheet from their bed! No, not happy at all! Boo!

When i was in 5th & 6th, my grandmother made me a costume of Joseph's coat of many colors. I took 1st place 2 years in a row.

I alternated between a cowgirl or a hobo.
