With Halloween in full swing, the streets of Sheffield have seen the likes of many interesting costumes.
We asked our readers to submit photos of their favourite costumes on Instagram and the results were amazing. From characters to monsters, the variety of costumes are truly impressive.
Not one but two Shreks
While some opted for store bought costumes, others utilised face paint and headbands, adding a DIY touch to their outfits.
Wario and Luigi
Whether it was a Super Mario Bros character or the lovable ogre, these childhood characters never fail to stand out in a crowd.
Del Boy and Rodney Trotter
Local nostalgic icons also made an appearance. Two friends were dressed as Del Boy and Rodney Trotter, the classic British duo from the beloved British sitcom ‘Only Fools and Horses’.
While many couples and pairs often coordinate their costumes for Halloween, this year’s festivities saw a creative trio costume that truly stood out.
Name a better trio than this Tequila shot
Dressed as individual ingredients of a tequila shot, this group brought a refreshing twist to traditional Halloween attire.
An original character from The Sims
Another experimental yet simple costume was a stunning recreation of a customisable in-game character from the popular life simulation game, The Sims.
Aside from innovative costumes, inflatable costumes like aliens, dinosaurs, and sharks have always been a fundamental part of Halloween.

Ogun Montgomery and Levi Ackerman
From the stoic Levi Ackerman from ‘Attack on Titan’ to the powerful Ogun Montgomery of ‘Fire Force’, fans of Japanese animations or anime showcased their costumes by cosplaying as their favourite characters.
The spooky season has not seen a scarier and more terrifying costume than what our next submission had for us.
Number 3 from Slipknot
This follower channelled his inner chaos while wearing the iconic mask of famous metal rock band Slipknot’s percussionist, Number 3 (Chris Fehn).
The costume brings out a menacing aura and adds on to the scare factor of Halloween.
Halloween is not just for those who enjoy a good scare, it is also a time for creativity, self-expression, and pure enjoyment.
