View it as a treat or an overhyped trick, there's no escaping it: Halloween is almost upon us.
Yes, it's time for that annual celebration of trying to outdo everyone else with an elaborate costume which has absolutely nothing to do with All Hallows' Eve.
This year certainly hasn't been short of inspiration for anyone looking to make a statement. Maybe you could go dressed as the 'Barbenheimer' meme? Or Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?
If you aren't that into pop culture you could always buy a more offbeat outfit (spaghetti and meatballs, anyone?)
Still, if none of the above tickles your fancy, you can at least feast your eyes on the latest celebrity offerings.
The likes of Heidi Klum, Kendall Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton and many, many others go above and beyond in their efforts to put on the best possible display for their fans.
This year is no exception with the likes of Kourtney Kardashian, Hailey Bieber, Kim Petras and Adele all getting in on the act early. Here are the best from the celebrity world so far.
