Our guides on this topic
Choosing a Halloween gift
Halloween gifts in the US fall into three groups: costumes, treats for trick-or-treaters and party guests, and small seasonal gifts for kids who love the spooky side of October. Costumes are the largest universe here, with eight picks; check the size chart rather than the age label, since kids' costumes often run small. For a gift that outlasts October 31, books and collectibles beat candy.
By age and profile
The recipient tiles lead to pages for a child and for a teen.
Halloween budget and timing
Halloween is the most affordable occasion on the site: 16 of the 26 ideas cost under $30, eight under $15, and only two go above $50 to $100. Prices are indicative and drop quickly after November 1. For costumes, order at least a week before October 31 so there is time to exchange a size. Books, candy and plush ship faster and can wait until the final days with Prime.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Halloween gift under $10?
Eight ideas here cost under $15.
What can I get for Halloween at the last minute?
Candy and books, which ship fast and need no size: a box of Ring Pop Halloween Candy Lollipops or a seasonal picture book. Leave costumes for when you have at least a week.
Who is this Halloween selection for?
Mostly kids from toddlers to preteens, with costumes, books, dolls and plush.
Do people give gifts for Halloween?
Not the way they do at Christmas, but small Halloween gifts are common in the US for kids, grandkids and classmates, often as a Boo basket left on a neighbor's porch. Keep it modest: a book, a plush or a bag of candy is enough.
