Stranger Things might just be the perfect series to watch around Halloween! Yeah, the popular Netflix show is great any time of year—but its' eerie plot and gruesome villains make the show especially fitting around the October holiday. So while we anticipate all the fun Halloween activities (like those Halloween parties and iconic Halloween movies), why not start planning your Halloween costume and channel it around Stranger Things?! We curated a list of the best and most creative Stranger Things costumes that will have you feeling like your in Hawkins, Indiana!

We've rounded up some of our favorite looks from the Stranger Things series over the years (a mix of costumes from all seasons), providing products and inspiration on how to make them the best costumes this season. Whoever your favorite characters are (Eleven, Steve, or even Jim Hopper), they're probably on this list. All of them are great for '80s Halloween costumes inspired by fashion trends of the decade, like graphic T-shirts, neon colors, and high-waisted jeans. You can combine a few of them to make them the cutest couple costumes or even group Halloween costumes, too! Whatever the case is, make sure to let us know in the comments which are your favorites!

Henry Creel "001" Costume

Hawkins High Cheerleaders Costume

You can scream "Go Tigers!" this Halloween by dressing up as a Hawkins High cheer leader! The uniform and pom poms are the first thing you'll need. But you'll have to learn the chants and practice your snobby, but somehow lovable attitude to really embody the spirit!

Murray Bauman Costume

Murray is hilarious, trustworthy, and apparently a black belt in karate. His aesthetic on the show can't necessarily be defined, since it always seems to be changing. Though, a wool newsboy cap, a pair of earmuffs, and a orange/red scarf might just be one of the most notable fits he's worn.
