Is it just us, or has this whole year been Halloween? We’ve been scared, spooked and binge-eating candy since January already.
Now that the actual holiday is here, just before Election Day, Halloween 2016 has no chance of being a time of blissful escapism. That pant-suited grandma and the pumpkin-tinted reality star are barking at us from every screen — but that doesn’t mean they have to be your Halloween costumes!
So, please throw away those blonde wigs.
