But then you run the risk of someone else wearing your same, exact costume. Boring.

Instead, why not take some time to create your own Halloween costume? That way, you know that it's a completely original creation. Not only that, but Halloween costumes are a chance for you to show off your creative DIY skills, not to mention an excellent opportunity to represent your favorite town, Lansing!
