The most popular Halloween costumes of 2016 are here.
The Google Freightgeist is a compilation of the top Halloween costumes that are trending ahead of the spooky holiday. The selection includes some classics we see every year such as superheroes.
Additionally, the release of Suicide Squad earlier this year brought back popularity to several characters in the movie, including the always-popular Joker.
Comic book characters are quite popular this year as Marvel and DC have both been on a tear over the last decade or so with plenty of movies and TV shows being released promoting their superhuman characters.
Some Halloween classics are also on the list, including witches, ghosts and the ever-present clowns who have taken over October frights this year, actually terrorizing and threatening innocent bystanders all around the U.S.
Unsurprisingly, other contemporary classics such as Star Wars characters and video game favorites such as
Pokemon monsters — who have breathed new life thanks to the release of Pokemon Go — will also be dominating the scene this year.
Here are the 25 most popular costumes that you will see this year:
