Hi welcome to the beginning of November, the sad time of year when we have to admit to ourselves that Halloween is really and truly over and will not roll around again until October 1st next year (Halloween is a month long holigay, not sure if you knew that, now you do!). Luckily this year we have a soothing balm to heal our hearts as we bid farewell to Halloween Month: this community gallery, filled with 200+ photos of you queerdos looking very spooky, very sexy, very gay, and all around very, very good!

Creatrix Tiara, I’m impressed by your commitment!
I was coming here to post this exact sentiment. V impressive.
Haha I’m slightly cheating! I was a cast member for the Taylor Mac show mentioned in the first picture, which took place over 2 weeks in mid October. My role as a Dandy Minion was sort of between the stage and the audience, and part of that involved coming up with fabulous costumes!
There’s one costume that didn’t make it on here which was me in a orange sari but instead of a crop top/blouse I had chains.
I’M OBSESSED WITH ALL OF YOU!!
THESE ARE ALL SO DELIGHTFUL!!! sexy nigel thornberry! corky and violet! i love everyone in this gallery
hey arnold was also so cute!
thank you! several people thought I was Doug and I lost the costume contest to a unicorn pinata, but such is life
*If you want my Body*
**Annnd you think I’m SMASHING**
-Sexy Nigel Thornberry
i hate halloween, but y’all are cute.
highlights include john oliver and molly/arthur weasley and the TWO blackhearts who dressed up as yorkie
SLEEP NO MORE IS EVERYTHING, I HAVE TO MEET YOU TWO.
Psst, @hannarchy-2. It me, KaeLyn of Autostraddle and also of SNM superfandom! We’re a little bit obsessed…
Find Waffle and me at rottenwoodandwiltedsunflowers.tumblr.com (our SNM tumblr) or in line at the McKittrick. :p
I’m so pleased that literally anyone got the costume references. LOL. They were for McKittrick parties over Halloween weekend!
I love you I love you I love you forever.
Can we make Sleep No More into a lifestyle? And is it ending soon?? I hear rumors but I am far away in Indianapolis, I wish I could go every week.
Definitely creepin on your tumblr.
Um, it IS a lifestyle, @hannarchy-2. Are you on tumblr? It’s a legitimate fandom with drama and friendships and heated debates and memes and rivalries and fan theories and fanfic and everything. WELCOME.
And some of my favorite SNM fan friends live all over the U.S./World. You’re not alone! We actually live about 6 hrs outside of NYC, so we’re not local either. ALWAYS DOWN to chat about the show on tumblr! DM us on tumblr!
Well apparently I need to get a tumblr!!! See you soon!
Claudia’s outer space costume is amazing!
Seconded
Thirded. I gasped out loud when I saw it.
how do you join the space program? i wanna be an astronaut
Ya’ll are so cute and creative! <3
Listen Holly, I think you maybe won all of halloween. That “Before and After: Sara Ramirez” just made me do a spit take with my coffee!
You are all such beautiful souls! Happy Halloween!
Standing ovation to the before and after Sara Ramirez
Hehe thanks so much!!

SUCH ADORABLE DORKS, ALL OF YOU
I cried at Molly and Arthur Weasley. And then immediately stopped crying at sexy Nigel Thornberry.
You’re all amazing.
My partner’s look and attitude has been giving me life all week. God I hope this uploading thing works. Could not not share.
ok so it did not work. I shall retry.
i want this to work! but i don’t know how to make it work :(
I feel so. old. and internet incompetent, but I’m gonna try and probably fail publicly yet again because you should all see this.
I did it :).
OH WOW. definitely worth the wait. thank you for sharing!!
I hope the John Oliver impersonator sent that photo to him so he can work it into the show!
OMG I KNOW RIGHT. That photo got me FOOLED.
Shout out to roots Lisle Von Rhuman and Bound duo. ?
The period ones omfg amazing
“Outer space, motherfucker”
You all look fabulous in your outfits; but, maybe it’s because I’m tired but a lot of these look to be taken at the same party or at least same moon background.
we just have a lot of rly cute queers in Portland who all go to the same parties ;)
Ah, that makes more sense.
So many favorites! Bend it like Beckham!! Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe! So many others I told myself I’d remember when I commented but obviously already forgot
I love Halloween and I love how goofy and creative these are! <3 <3
also Rebecca (Sgt. Pepper/Minerva) where the HELL DID YOU GET THAT JACKET.
Some really great costumes here! Good work team.
OMG there are so many amazing costumes here!! I love them all!!
This proves my theory that Halloween is the queerest and the best.
I’m so glad I saved this post for reading at the end of my day today. Soooooooo good! Everyone is so freaking cute!
American Gaythic with the scissors, awesome. I remember when A League Of Their Own came out and thinking “how is there no lesbian romance in this”. I was really disappointed but not surprised.
CORKY AND VIOLET OMGGGGGG !!!!!
Damn. I knew I forgot to submit something. Oh well. Just wait for Black Panther. That outfit is going to be siiiiiiick.
sending the world’s BIGGEST and GAYEST shout-out to Padya and Mer for representing the Larries this Halloween!!
These are amazing, y’all are amazing
Clairezilla, I love you! Please Like Me is the best TV series on this earth and far too few people have heard of it or love it as much as I do.
may I admit that I feel strangely attracted to that grandpa there?
