Spooky sweaters to scare everyone away.

Frisco Spooky Ghost Dog & Cat Sweater available for $13.99 in large and extra large sizes.

“Nothing brings in the Halloween spirit like a cute festive sweater! This sweater fits my dog so nicely, it’s very comfortable for him to wear. It also has a slit at the top for his leash. This way, I can still walk him comfortably with the sweater on. I love the spooky ghost patterns on this sweater, such a great pick!” — Joni

Who says dinosaurs are extinct? You can always turn your little four-legged into one.

The Frisco Stegosaurus Dinosaur Dog & Cat Costume is available for $23.99 in sizes XS-2XL. Here’s a customer review for this costume:

“This fit perfectly in a size large on my full grown Aussie. The Dino head piece is really what makes this costume because it is so cute. He wore it comfortably and had no issue running around the house in this costume. It was lightweight and made him slightly less terrifying because he couldn’t stop smiling while playing in his dino costume. 10/10 on this one for any pet parents who want to get a costume that your pet might be willing to wear.” —Crimsontheaussie

“This has been my all-time favorite Amazon purchase thus far. Whoever came up with this is a genius! It arrived quickly and in good condition. It was easy to put on, easy to tighten without harm and it even came with a little tuft for the tail! (my dog only has a nub, so I didn’t use that part) The mane bugged her a bit at first, but she got used to it really quickly and soon became the center of attention 🙂 This thing is amazing. BUY IT!” —Kenzi

Nigua Pet Cat Bat Wings for Halloween, Cosplay Bat Wing Costume Decoration for Puppy Dog Cat is available for $6.99 for small cats and dogs and $12.99 for big large size cats and dogs on Amazon. Here’s a product review from a valued customer. 

“These are great for a simple Halloween idea for your pup. I don’t like the idea of using full outfits on my dog, and was happy to see that these were available. If your dog uses harnesses, they probably won’t mind these wings on them as they strap on. I have a 57-pound husky and I ordered large but I should have gotten a medium. Not a big deal tho! I was able to cut the straps to make them smaller so now they are the perfect size. So I would say don’t be afraid to go up a size because you can just fix it with scissors. These are a good quality and are perfect to match with the costume this Halloween!” —Aniko McGee

It’s time we set things right and bring order to the world. Dress your girls in Wonder Woman costume and let the innocent know they’re not alone!

DC Comics Wonder Woman Pet Costume. Available for $10.49 in S–XL, 2X–3X sizes. 

“I got this costume for Penny, my 40-pound pit bull, to wear while we were trick-or-treating on Halloween. It was so cute! The dress doesn’t have “sleeves” and the fabric ends right at the middle of her belly, so Penny was able to comfortably wear it without feeling like she was overwhelmed. I put it on her a few times before Halloween, and she was paying with her toys, walking around the house, and lounging in her bed like nothing was any different. She also tolerated the headband very well, but I think it’s because the headband is just a flat piece of fabric and elastic – nothing floppy or wobbly to make her feel like something is there that shouldn’t be. Pit bulls are broad-chested dogs, so the top Velcro pieces kept pulling apart, but it really wasn’t a huge deal. Overall, I’d say this outfit is very easy for a dog to wear, and it’s super cute!” —JBD

Nothing is scarier than a giant spider.

I opened up a seam on the legs and stuffed with more filling and did the same for the head. Also, I put a snap on the chin strap as these are always large on my little guys. The end result…so CUTE! Even without changes it is so cute — and it’s even better when they walk around.” —Devin
