The Google Trends are in and with them, insight into this year's top-searched Halloween costumes.
With October marching steadily forward, major retailers have their themed decor and outfits out in full stock and people are starting to piece together plans for their 2024 holiday getups. Elaborate cosplayers and DIY fans alike have hundreds of hot options at their fingertips, from cheap accessory kits to complete a look from Five Below to full-blown costume replicas available on Amazon.

Thanks to Google Trends and Google’s annual Frightgeist site, costume planners can now get some insight and inspiration into hot costume ideas before hitting the stores. Here are this year's most-searched costumes so far, according to the search engine.
