Any five-and-dime worth your time had a Halloween section with tons of costumes to rummage through.

I found an old photo the other day, from the early ‘60’s, of my little sister wearing the dime store version of a Tweety costume, complete with plastic mask. So cute.

70% Skeleton. Halloween when I was a kid was the greatest! I wish I could have those days again.
I would love to go back and go trick or treating as an 7 or 8 year old. It was so much fun. The anticipation was palpable. 🎃👻
20% Similar, I was Batman. My mom made me the entire suit by hand.
I was something different every year. One year she made me a fly costume, another time I'd watched "The Crawling Eye" movie, so she took a large box and turned it into the said creature. Great fun.

Sounds like you had a very creative Mom. Awesome!
Always be yourself, unless you can be a cowboy. Then, always be a cowboy.
I was always a witch, which is why I chose "witch", which is of course the most popular. Halloween just isn't the same. Wish my children and grandchildren could experience it like I did.
I always dressed up as a bum using my dad's old suit coat 🧥
My brothers and sisters and I carried pillowcases to carry our candy.🍬🍭🍫🎃👻💀👹👺🤡🥸

I was a bum once too. Wore a mackinaw of my dad’s and a pair of baggy pants. My mother used some make-up on my face to make stubble. Why a bum I have no idea because I had been a cat, a ghost and a gypsy before that. We used pillow cases too. 🎃👻
20% Dad was a Air Force pilot so I'd dress in one of his old flight suits with flake blood and bandages.
Bum. 3%
Just wore my dad's old clothes 😂🤣😅 and rubbed charcoal on my face.

So was I. I was also a devil and had a pitchfork.
I did the exact same thing! I added a hat and candy cigarette. We children used pillowcases to "beg" with.
Was great when we were kids and Halloween was on a Saturday. Started the trick-or-treating around noon. We went to many other neighborhoods as well and got plenty of treats. Didn't eat all of that candy, of course. Gave some away and threw some out. Had skeleton costume and the rubber Frankenstein monster and Wolf Man masks. When I wore the Wolf Man mask, an old lady said I was a lion.
Where I grew up no one started trick or treating before 5 pm when dusk started to set in. Good times. 🎃

Spider-Man, of course.
Back in the mid 60s, my mother made a spectacular Spidey costume for me. (Those were the days before I became better shaped to play a Tellarite. [le sigh] )

Loved Spider-Man the animated series CaptainDunsel. Use to fight with my sisters every day after school. They wanted to watch "Dark Shadows" with ol' Barnabus Collins and I wanted to watch Peter Parker as Spidey.
0% similar. I picked bum because I actually wore a bum costume one year.
We had all the Universal Monster outfits, (Frankenstein, Wolfman, Dracula) and some others. My brother thought one year it would be a good idea to walk around the block, go home, change costumes, and walk around the block again. It wasn't.
Bahahahaha. Cracked me up when you said, "it wasn't". Bc at first I was also agreeing with your brother.

In the 60s I'd always buy (at either TG&Y or Sprouse-Reitz!) this .99 cent, hard plastic, transparent flesh colored mask they had every year, of a man -- the same one Malachi Throne later wore as 'False Face' on Batman. Then I just threw on whatever I wanted and went trick or treating. Was my favorite mask, they have similar ones out there still today but haven't seen this particular one for decades.
As kids we never really cared about what mask to wear, our only interest was the candy.
