People planning on getting out and howling for Halloween need to dress the part. Here in the Reno area, we have plenty of Halloween stores that will not only help you with a costume, they can also supply all the other spooky stuff you may need to decorate for a party or to just have fun scaring the neighborhood trick-or-treaters.

There has been an explosion of those temporary Halloween stores all over the Truckee Meadows, but there are other, locally-owned choices. If you are the do-it-yourself type, check some of our many thrift stores for the raw materials to make your own costume. We also have some funky boutiques and counter culture stores (think Burning Man) that can help you become whatever you want for Halloween.
