For starters, Halloween is not a competition. Don't worry about 'winning' anything this Thursday night, just go out and have fun! We live in an age of endless lists and comparisons: best-ofs, top 10's, coolest, funniest, most creative... and Halloween has to take the prize for the most competitive holiday. Let's make Halloween fun again!
These couples are proof of the old saying that "two heads are better than one." While you can make a splash with your own cool costume at a Halloween party, a bit of creative coordination with your significant other can expand your options and bring you closer together with a little fun teamwork - a couple's Halloween costumes.
This is the best thing about couple's costumes - you get to share your humor, pop culture passions, questionable fashion sense, imagination, and creativity with the person that you cherish the most. You can guarantee that these guys had a blast finding their unique costumes and partying together!
Scroll down below to see some great examples of couples working together to create amazing Halloween costumes, and check out our previous post here. Perhaps you'll be inspired to think about 'pairing up' for costume ideas this year!

An 88-Year-Old Woman And Her 92-Year-Old Husband Attend A Halloween Party
Halloween, also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, or All Saints' Eve, is a celebration observed in several countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed.

It is widely believed that many Halloween traditions originated from ancient Celtic harvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain. These festivals had pagan roots; but it is believed that Samhain itself was Christianized as Halloween by the early Church. Some believe, however, that Halloween began solely as a Christian holiday.

Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or the related guising and souling), attending costume parties, carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories, as well as watching horror films.
In many parts of the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead, remain popular, although elsewhere it is a more commercial and secular celebration. Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows' Eve, a tradition reflected in the eating of certain vegetarian foods on this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.
