Halloween 2020 has just concluded and despite the lingering pandemic scare, it was a smashing success. We’re pretty sure you also had a blast and are already looking forward to next year’s spooky season. So, we’ve collected the most creative Halloween costume ideas to give you some inspirations for the next Halloween.
There are a few things that set this year’s Halloween apart from the previous years. Obviously, the pandemic has the entire world making adjustments to the new ‘normal’. Social distancing, obligatory wearing of face masks, frequent hand washing, and other protective measures are strictly advised to reduce the risk of transmission. Until an effective vaccine is available, we will continue to live by these practices and restrictions. But this doesn’t mean that festivities, including Halloween and Christmas, are cancelled. And as you might have seen, the spooky season went off without a hitch in the new ‘normal’.

Seeing people trying to get back to normal life somehow sparks a ray of hope within us.
