HALLOWEEN 2020 might have been a little different this year, but people from all over Ireland still found a way to get in the spirit of things – no pun intended.
With trick or treating off the menu during lockdown, Halloween enthusiasts were forced to have a low key scare fest in the company of their families at home.
But that didn’t stop fans far and wide, young and old, from getting creative when it came to their costumes.
Featuring everything from the Joker to Mary Lou McDonald, here are some of the very best costumes on offer from around Ireland.
The Joker
This inspired effort is made all the more impressive by the fact the girl involved only just turned four!
Mary Lou McDonald

That beard. Would you look at that beard. It's a thing of beauty.
Jurassic Park
They were preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.
