What makes an EXCELLENT Halloween costume?  Like any great success, it all starts with a good idea.  For many people, picking out a costume for pumpkin day can be a very personal thing.  The clothes we put on every other day of the year can say something about who we are, what we like and how we want to be perceived.  In a way, Halloween isn’t that much different.  What’s fun about October 31st is the opportunity to be someone else for a change.

In February of 1989, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure hit theaters.  Nearly two decades later, people are trick-or-treating as the dynamic time traveling duo.  It’s no wonder Alex Winter just confirmed to MTV that “B&T Part 3 is on the way.”  What is it about Bill and Ted that has stuck with fans after all these years?  As you’ll see in the photos below, for many people, it’s about friendship.  Planning a Bill and Ted costume isn’t a solo pursuit – and it isn’t limited to teenage boys.  Below you’ll find people of all ages, boys and girls, friends and family – all who started with the same idea: This Halloween, let’s be excellent to each other AND, party on.  Dudes.
