We’ve got just four weeks until Halloweekend — do you know where your costume is?

We do. It’s at Goodwill.

Here’s why Goodwill should be your Halloween planning HQ in Asheville:

  1. Low cost: Costumes shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg. Goodwill has a ton of pieces you can put together for a creative, budget-friendly costume. (Get ideas.)
  2. Originality: Who wants to be caught in the same costume as everyone else? Whether you’re assembling a classic witch wardrobe or putting together a niche zombie Sabrina Carpenter look, your vibe will be one-of-a-kind based on your finds.
  3. Decorations: Don’t forget to browse eerie decor, antiques, and craft supplies to DIY your home into a haunted haven.
  4. AVL love: Every purchase here supports free job training and community programs in Asheville. It’s a treat that keeps giving.
  5. Cheap thrills: Shopping at Goodwill is like a haunted treasure hunt. Consider the journey across WNC’s 50+ stores part of your Halloween destination.
