COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- As Halloween approaches, we decided to hit up the local Party City to see what some of the trends were heading into the spooky holiday.

Despite Covid-19, Assistant Manager of Party City April Leitte says business has been pretty good.

“We are actually seeing a lot of customers and everyone is being really respectful of the six-foot social distancing but they are coming out getting costumes, decorations, and celebrating Halloween," she said.

And Party City actually ranked their top five costumes this year:

  1. Slasher-themed
  2. Gamer-themed
  3. Everyday heroes (first responders)
  4. Disney's "Frozen" characters
  5. "Tiger King" inspired

Leitte said a big draw to the first responder costumes is the mask usually fits, adding, “You can still wear a mask with it and you can dress it up as much as you want.”

But this year, fewer people are expected to be out trick-or-treating. So what exactly are they doing?

Leitte said, “We are really seeing a mix of virtual parties, parades, trunk or treat -- a lot of different things, they are being very creative.”

So remember to keep your social distance and have a safe and fun Halloween.
