When is Halloween?

Every year on October 31st is Halloween and every year most of us ask the same question: What am I going to dress up as for Halloween? It is difficult to make a choice because the offer can be overwhelming. Look no further because in this blog I will tell you where you can buy your Halloween costume, as well as the accessories to turn your house into a real horror house. The pros and cons of all Halloween sales points at a glance.

Online Halloween Stores

There are some great websites where you can buy your Halloween costume online. My personal favorite is Globos Feestartikelen (part of Shoppartners). They are the #1 website for everything you could wish for in the Halloween field: Costumes, Accessories, Masks, Make-up, Decoration, Garden decorations, Table decorations, Skulls and Bones, Pumpkins, Bitters, Dolls, Day of the Dead. The vast majority of Halloween party items are available from stock and if ordered before 5 p.m. on workdays, they will be delivered the next day.

Local Halloween (Party) Shops

Depending on where you live, there may well be a party store near you. In the months of September and October they often adapt their entire range to Halloween. Some party stores even open a pop-up store between September and October that exclusively sells Halloween costumes, props and other Halloween items. Not sure if and where there is a party store near you? Then check feestwinkels.com for an overview of all party shops in the Netherlands. And if there is no party store near you, visit Blokker or Action.

Marketplace / eBay

You can find many Halloween costumes on Marktplaats and Ebay, both new and used. Be aware that close to Halloween, everyone here starts looking for an outfit and auctions can become very competitive and prices skyrocket. So if you want to make your move on Marktplaats or Ebay, make sure you get there on time. And if you don't win the item, you always have a plan B in mind.

Bol.com

Bol.com is without a doubt the Halloween store from all of us. There is so much choice in Halloween and that is because Bol.com also offers the Halloween range from other (online) Halloween stores. In the Halloween store of Bol.com you can Indicate what or who you want to dress up as, whether you are looking for a costume for a boy or a girl, a specific theme and many more options that make it very easy to find your Halloween outfit for this year. Bol.com also has a reputation to uphold and you don't have to worry about purchasing remotely.

Thrift stores

Visit your local thrift store to see what they have. They might just have the perfect costume for you for a very low price. Just keep in mind that the closer you get to October 31st, the smaller their stock will be. This option is therefore better for people who start looking for a Halloween outfit well in advance and are not looking for a Last-Minute bargain.

Discount stores

Discount stores such as Action, Blokker and HEMA and the like also often sell some Halloween costumes, a few decorations and some Halloween party supplies. Usually they don't have the largest Halloween selection, but if you have the time, I would definitely visit there.
