For some of us growing up, a bed sheet over your head made you a ghost, a towel was a superhero's cape and toilet paper equalled mummy bandages.

This year, some famous faces have been spotted dressed as superheroes, supernatural beings and other creepy creatures.

So, your verdict - spine-tinglingly good or ghastly?

The British singer even went on stage dressed as Post to perform a karaoke version of his hit Rockstar.

Rita wrote on Instagram: "Surprised Wembley as you tonight at my show my fans didn't even recognise me LOL."

Harry Styles

Harry threw back to a 1975 Sir Elton John performance which took place at the Dodgers Stadium.

Spookily, Harry donned the costume on Friday 26 October, which is also the date that Elton's performance took place back in 1975.

Perrie Edwards

Usually she seems nice as pie but Little Mix's Perrie Edwards showed off a darker side by dressing up as Ursula from Disney's The Little Mermaid.

Let's hope that unlike Ariel, none of her band mates were made to give up their voices.

And you may have noticed that the queen of Halloween costumes, Heidi Klum, is missing.

The former model hasn't posted this year's outfit yet but last month teased she was getting ready for another special outfit.
