Disney-inspired costumes are always popular on Halloween.
But if you don't want to dress as a classic character, there are plenty of underrated ones to work with in Disney's catalog.
Zenon and Mia Thermopolis, for example, are two characters from Disney films that are rarely seen on Halloween.
You can also put a twist on more traditional costumes, like wearing Ariel's human clothes rather than her mermaid tail.

Disney-themed costumes are always some of the most popular looks on Halloween.

That being said, some of the company's classic characters can look a bit tired as costumes. If you're looking to switch things up this year, consider taking a look through Disney's underrated movies, TV shows, and theme-park attractions to find inspiration.
