These lovely mid-century photos capture children dressed up in Halloween costumes during the 1950s and ’60s. The images show kids in a mix of homemade and store-bought outfits: ghosts, witches, pirates, clowns, skeletons, and popular characters of the time, posing proudly before heading out for trick-or-treating or parties.
Many of the costumes reflect the simpler, often handmade style of the era, full of charm and creativity. These photos offer a warm and nostalgic glimpse of childhood Halloween celebrations more than half a century ago.
