#TRENDING 10/28/22: Fake Spirit Halloween Costumes Are All Over Twitter

Fake Spirit Halloween Costumes Are All Over Twitter, Including a "Radio Host" Outfit

 

Fake Spirit Halloween costumes exploded on Twitter this week. Now everyone's doing them, from random people to big corporations.

  

Basically, someone took a photo of a real Spirit Halloween costume in its packaging . . . Photoshopped out all the details . . . and challenged people to come up with their own costume ideas.

  

Some have been a little mean-spirited, and others are just dumb. But here are a few we liked . . .

  

1.  Social Media Manager. Comes with an iPhone 14 Pro Max . . . Adobe Creative Cloud . . . and irritable bowel syndrome.

  

2.  Grandma. It comes with back pain, a comfy sweater, and expired milk.

  

3.  Indie Artist Playing a Show Tomorrow. It includes 467 Instagram posts about the show . . . a link to buy tickets . . . a "low ticket warning" . . . and anxiety.

  

4.  Unprepared Hiker. It comes with a t-shirt, flip flops, a sunburn, and an empty energy drink . . . "Sense of direction not included." The Washington State Department of Natural Resources did that one.

  

5.  Job Recruiter Who Ghosted You. It comes complete with a "We've solved this internally" smirk.

 

6.  Conservative Guy Who's Scared of Cities. Jeans and a patriotic Nine Line t-shirt with American flags on it.

  

7.  Kanye West. Just a picture of a bag filled with garbage.

  

8. A costume for guys called 5-Foot-11 Twitch Streamer. It comes with a gold chain, a tripod, and an angry forehead vein.

  

9. A costume for women called Influencer from Upper Class Background. It comes with three crop tops and a degree from NYU.

  

10. Another one for women called A Damn Fine Friday Night. It comes with a Snuggie, a cat, a bottle of wine, and a vibrating love toy.

  

11.  Professional Screenwriter. Just a robe and a cup of coffee.

  

12.  Children's Librarian. Comes with a puppet, a pound of glitter, and, quote, "the energy of a toddler." The Anaheim Public Library system tweeted that one.

  

13.  Enthusiastic Fitbit Owner Hitting 10,000 Steps. It comes with a Fitbit and positive energy. That one came directly from Fitbit.

  

14.  Dad at a Concert. It includes ear plugs, sick dance movies, and parking anxiety.

  

15. And finally, Radio Host. Comes with a dash of narcissism . . . three other part-time jobs . . . and a post from ten years ago with a celebrity who just died.

  

By the way, Spirit Halloween responded to the trend this week after someone did a lame one that just said "Gay Guy". They clarified it was NOT real and said their "review team" would look into it.

  

They don't seem too upset about the trend itself though, because THEY even got in on the action with a fake costume called Spirit Halloween Store.

  

It comes with a store sign for "the abandoned building you take over" . . . and, quote, "the will to exist for only three months."
