Halloween is creeping up fast, and that means one thing: it’s officially costume-hunting season. If you’re still figuring out what (or who) to dress up as, Google Trends has dropped this year’s most-searched costumes—and the results are a perfect reflection of 2025’s pop culture obsessions, from viral K-pop films to classic horror icons.

Leading the pack? KPop Demon Hunters. Characters from the smash-hit animated movie—Rumi, Zoey, Mira, Jinu, Baby Saja, and Derpy the Tiger—have taken over the charts, especially among kids. Expect to see plenty of sparkly demon slayers on trick-or-treat night.

Meanwhile, Labubu mania isn’t slowing down. The mischievous characters created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung back in 2015 have found new life after celebs like Rihanna and Lisa started accessorizing with them. This Halloween, Labubu isn’t just a collectible—it’s a full-on costume trend.

For those leaning into the creepy side of the holiday, horror gaming has a firm grip. Silent Hill creatures—especially the eerie nurses and the infamous Pyramid Head—are among the most searched. Whether you’re going for Bubble Head Nurse realness or Pyramid Head’s terrifying presence, survival horror is back in a big way.
