Baby Halloween Costumes

There's nothing cuter than a baby dressed up in a fun costume, and baby Halloween costumes have come a long way from the humble pumpkin sleepsuit. Last year we saw a bigger than ever range with weird and wonderful spooky costumes for baby, and this year's additions so far have been just as good.

When kids start getting mobile many of them love to dress up, and though they're still a bit young for trick or treating they can still dress up and have fun. Cute rather than scary is the way to go. Head to Asda George*, Wilko* or Home Bargains* for the best value and biggest choice with prices from just £5.

We are loving the toddler costumes at Asda George, like this Floral Skeleton Fancy Dress Costume* from £10.

Newborn Halloween Costumes UK

There's never been a better choice of newborn baby Halloween costumes, as every year new and wonderful new costumes for your little spook appear in the shops.

We find that the best selection of Halloween costumes for newborns can be found at Asda George*, with a good selection at Tu Clothing*.

Matching Family Halloween Costumes

If you love matching family outfits for occasions you can now get matching Halloween costumes, so that parents, children and sometimes even baby and the dog can all go in the same costumes!

Asda* usually sell some brilliant seem matching costumes, as last year there were lots of matching 'mother and daughter' tutu outfits, and we're hoping for more matching family sets as well.

Tu Clothing* have a good range of matching 'mini me' costumes too, including Ghostbusters, Day Of The Dead, witches and more.

If you want to go the whole hog and get perfect matching sets for everyone take a peek at the Family Halloween Costumes*from Party Delights for a brilliant range including Zombie, Day Of The Dead, Grim Reaper, Vampire and more. They're not as cheap as the supermarkets, but if you're happy to spend out for a party or a fabulous photo op you can't get much better.

Cheap Halloween Costumes

If you want to go all out there are some really elaborate fancy dress costumes available, but if you're looking for bargains there are always lots of simple and cheap options to be found. Check the supermarkets, including the budget Aldi and Lidl, but get in there quick as stock sells out fast.

For £5 or less how about this Vampire Bat Costume* from Amazon and the Witches Costumes* at Asda George. Wilko* also have some super cheap kids' Halloween costumes with prices from £5.

Where To Buy Halloween Costumes In The UK

Many major stores will sell fancy dress costumes for Halloween, including Asda*, Tesco* (in store only), Tu Clothing*, Morrisons*, as well as the budget supermarkets Aldi* and Lidl* closer to the date.

Bargain high street stores like Wilko*, Home Bargains* and B&M* are great for value costumes, and clothing stores like Matalan*and Peacocks* have plenty to add to the mix too.
