But if you’re on a strict budget, nothing may be quite as blood-curdling as the price of a good Halloween costume. Plus, if you use double-sided tape instead of fabric glue, the changes you make to the clothing don’t even need to be permanent. Ghosts may give you goosebumps. Monsters may give you nightmares.

It was rarely just handed out.
