Halloween costumes stored in the metaphorical CBC Archives basement
You may have forgotten about these costumes, but the CBC Archives website did not
Here it is, the proof that these Halloween costumes existed, even if you forgot about them.
We ventured down the steps of the metaphorical CBC Archives basement to see what we had packed away from past Halloween celebrations.
We even found some examples of Halloween wear from episodes of a beloved CBC children's program.
Halloween is a holiday that always brings out the scary and the silly and a lot of pop culture-influenced costumes — though some characters endure year after year.
In recent decades, we've seen fewer people dressing up as the obnoxious '80s alien ALF, but the cult fandom of Ghostbusters has kept the movie and its characters on perpetual replay when it comes to Halloween.
Nightmare on Elm Street's Freddy Krueger is another character who tends to show up on Halloween, perhaps as regularly as the trick-or-treating Grim Reapers out there or those dressed up as less specific ghouls and monsters.
