Much like the names, they are simple costumes that can be decorated with cute accessories that make the costumes more individualistic. Jack Skellington from “The Nightmare Before Christmas” is another perfect example of a traditional costume that you can see almost everywhere. With the classic pinstripe suit and skull face, Jack Skellington is a simple yet easily recognizable costume. Romeo Capulet is a less common costume worn during Halloween.
