Halloween isn't just about yummy Halloween candy and scaring everyone you know half to death. It's also about bringing out the most creative side of yourself. Think about it: Halloween is the time when adults get super crafty, especially when it comes to making their own Halloween decorations for the parties they're hosting. There's also the joy of making spooky appetizers and painting the prettiest pumpkins on the block.

But arguably so, the most creativity comes with the costumes — and that's where these Snapchat filter Halloween costumes come in. There are a ton of simple Snap-inspired costumes that can be accomplished in minutes, and there are also some more challenging picks that require a bit of artistic skill. There's a filter for everyone, no matter what type of costume you're going for — think terrifying demon filters and the classic Rainbow Vomit filter. And if you need more internet outfits, check out these hilarious emoji costumes.
