With slasher films being a staple of Halloween, the idea of the “Final Girl” (or final boy) stands out as a must-do costume. This term refers to the final, surviving character of a slasher film (think Jamie Lee Curtis’s character Laurie in John Carpenter’s movie Halloween). There’s no better zodiac sign to represent such a powerful character troupe than the courageous and unstoppable Aries.
There you have it – your fated Halloween costume, according to your zodiac sign. If you listen to the stars and dress up according to your sign, send a picture. We’d love to see your costumes and feature them on our Instagram story!
