Kids Halloween Costumes UK: Skeleton, Vampire, Ghost and Grim Reaper on Amazon

Contains Amazon affiliate links. See Disclosure.

Halloween is Saturday 31 October, and school discos, parties and trick or treating all land in the same couple of weeks. Which kids Halloween costumes are worth a look on amazon.co.uk, and how do you get the size right?

The short answer: choose by age band and height, not just age, and check exactly what is in the pack. Skeleton, vampire, ghost and grim reaper outfits are the classics, and toddlers have softer options like a skeleton bat jumpsuit.

How to get the size right

• If they sit between two sizes, the larger one leaves room for a warm layer underneath
• Check chest and inside leg where the listing gives them
• Note that some sets are one size or sized S, M and L by height rather than age

What to check on the listing

• Exactly what is included (mask, gloves, hood, props)
• Age band and height range for each size
• Whether a mask fits comfortably for younger children
• Delivery date before the party, and returns notes
