Last year I dressed as a WW I pilot (leather jacket, leather flight cap with goggles, a scarf, and boots). Kinda like Snoopy when he pretends to fight the Red Baron.
But honestly before that I think you would have to go back decades to the last time I wore a costume for Halloween. My wife and I didn't have children. Although she wore a costume to her class, I never did.
When I was teaching, I would often quip to my students, "I came dressed as a teacher! Don't you love it? It's *totally* authentic!" It usually got a laugh. Once I spent the day talking to my class in my best Bella Lugosi impression. That Halloween a student came dressed as a rabbit. I kept calling her "Leetle Rabbit Girl." She thought the accent was funny, though she thought I was impersonating Grew from Despicable Me (he does sound like Bella Lugosi a little). Several Halloweens I entered class to have the students greet me, "Good morning, Mr. [Bluemax]!" I replied, "Actually I'm not Mr. [Bluemax], I'm Ms. Kim!" (or whomever was my aid at the time) Then I would point to Ms. Kim and say, "*That's* Mr. Bluemax. He decided to come dressed up as me!" That usually got a laugh. Once my student came dressed as Minnie Mouse. I asked if I could borrow her ears (complete with a bow!). I put on my sunglasses and took a selfie. She thought I was hilarious! I then taught my class for about the next hour with Minnie Mouse ears, her bow, and shades while wearing a suit. My students got lots of laughs!
So although I never dressed up for Halloween, I still had a lot of fun and laughs with my students.

Eldest was spiderman, second (daughter) was La Catrina (modern concept of the goddess of death in Mexican tradition), third was Steve from minecraft, youngest was orchestral conductor Mickey.
For the fourth year in a row, I was a mini-Morticia Addams. We opened our community center for the little ones tonight, and the kids were fabulous. A lot of the adults dressed up too. I think for those in their 20s, the Steampunk theme seemed to be popular. The little ones were everything from witches and vampires to alligators and dinosaurs. I saw a lot of little catwomen and little batmen too.
We had a really good Lurch too, he was close to 7' tall. When it comes to playing Lurch, height matters. For Morticias, Gomezs, Pugsleys, and Wednesdays not so much.
My mom was a witch, I was a peacock fairy, my brother was an 8 ball from fortnight, and my sister's were a princess and vampirina.

I have twin sons. They're 8 and a daughter who is 12. My daughter wanted to flaunt since she's growing up a bit, so I let her be a sort of sexy Cleopatra. My wife did the makeup and I hardly recognized her afterwards. It wasn't too provocative but the costume did have that sort of dress with the legs exposed and two pieces of material hanging down. I made sure she had underwear.
My two sons both went as Hitler. My wife went as a sexy witch. Her costume was REALLY provocative. Her outfit was hardly there other than the hat. She's a makeup artist so she actually looked like a scary witch with the prosthetic nose and all the effects and her entire body was green. Just a Cape with a little one piece costume, boots and fishnets. I can see why my daughter thinks she needs to be older than her age. I just went as John McEnroe from the 80s with the headband and stuff.
I was glad when it was over. And all that green shit off my wife got all over the bed spread and my body by the end of the night. There was a lot of cleaning up to do.My and my neighbors went as the “jungle cruise we took the top off my jeep and strapped s couple of fake palm trees in there I was a monkey, Michael was a banana, and Drew was a crocodile and we cruised around from party to party! It was an amazing idea, I didn’t work in practice… it didn’t make sense unless we were in the jeep “cruising” as soon as we stopped to go to a party or a club, we just looked like idiots dressed as a monkey, a banana, and a crocodile!
I didn't do much for Halloween my cousins came up with their Mom and her boyfriend and the kids were ages 3, 13, 8 .. The 3-year-old was spiderman, the 13-year-old was a stalker of some kind with a sword... The 8-year-old had Michael Myers outfit with a big head on her I was glad to see them all... I just wish things were better I know it would have been but you know how family drama is all about if not then your lucky :)
I just went into my closet and found the closest thing to "costume" and I went as a snowmobiler!
Murderous cheerleader, I stabbed all the other cheerleades 🐱
I spent my Halloween watching my dad get taken out by ambulance and then worrying like crazy. The good think is we found out it was just something minor.
I was an elephant, my daughter was Anna from frozen, my son was the minecraft diamond costume and my baby was a unicorn.
I was the grumpy old man... my oldest daughter was Hugh Hefner... she had two boys she convinced to wear bunny ears and bushy tail.
Poor boys...My SO went trick or treating with her grandkids, a witch and a superhero, in their neighborhood. I stayed home and watched the World Series. We're in an older area and don't get kids trick or treating.
I was a highway man, wife jacky the pumpkin queen, daughter the white rabbit son didn't dress up. We stayed home and handed out candy and watched Repo the Genetic Opera. L

As an adult and now knowing what is right and wrong. I don't dress up and celebrate Halloween. A real Christian shouldn't celebrate Halloween. I know longer put Christmas tree up for Christmas. a Christian should celebrate the Cross , not a Tree. I have seen Christians decorate a cross at Christmas, and I am ok with that.
Not a damn thing, I love when women with big butts who are in okay shape dress as cat woman. 🤤🤤
I dressed up as a horrific twisted clown to hand out candy.
I scared lots of children (and teens, and adults) lmaoI wore my Poodle skirt and went as a 1950s teenage girl with on a styroids overdose
I had a friend that’s a girl talk me into dressing as each other
