Need help with your Halloween costume? Let Google data inspire you

As you may have seen over the last few years (and you will see again this year) the team here at Blue Bee are huge fans of Halloween. There has been a lot of discussion in the office around costumes, and some have found it easier than others to pick out their scary attire.

Luckily for those who are struggling, Google have revealed the most popular costumes this year using search trend data from the United States.

Using overall trending searches, as well as searches in particular categories, here is the list that Google have come up with, and our description

1. Cobra Kai (Netflix series)
2. Dungeon Master (Dungeons & Dragons – huge points for pulling this off)
3. The Mandalorian (we have no idea either)
4. Space Cowgirl (pretty self-explanatory)
5. Trolls (Get that hair spiked up)
6. Belle (friend with a Beast)
7. Marshmello (musician that wears a funny helmet with x’s for eyes)
8. Inflatable shark (not sure how you can make yourself inflatable)
9. Firefighter (at least make the effort and be Sam)
10. Sanderson sisters (with Hocus Pocus 2 due out soon, this was bound to be up there)

Whilst these are the overall search results, Google has also compiled some more lists for those who still aren’t sure.
