Parents Are Going HAM On Their Kids’ Halloween Costumes This Year

It's scary how awesome these parents are.

Halloween is undeniably creeping into Australian culture, which is great for locals who love chocolate, parties, scary movies and dogs in fancy dress, but a real bummer for those whose sense of joy has been inexplicably drained and whose zest for life was long ago squelched.

But still, we’re a ways away from ever matching the enthusiasm of America’s adorable parents, who have gone especially HAM in 2015.

Take for instance, the Californian dude who turned his three-year-old daughter Zoey into El Niño, complete with artificial lightning and rain.

Then there is the father-daughter pair from Chicago who did… whatever this is.

Ryan Scott Miller, another California, turned his son Jeremy's wheelchair into an honest-to-goodness Star Wars snowspeeder.

An Oregon dad, Ryan Weimer, even went so far as to start a nonprofit organisation to make Halloween costumes for children in wheelchairs.

“When Weimer’s son, Keaton, was asked the best part of the costume, he said it was getting to feel included.”
