[PHOTOS] The Most Epic Halloween Costumes in the Hudson Valley
Halloween is truly the great unifier. Young or old, creative or lazy, partier or homebody, nearly everyone has fun on the wildest night of the year.
Halloween proper is on a weekday this year (and next year, and the year after that... ) but that just means there's more days for partying. While the kids will go out to trick-or-treat tonight, the adults already had their fun this past weekend at WRRV's Boo Ball at the MJN Convention Center in Poughkeepsie, NY. The costumes did not disappoint.

It's been several years since the Hudson Valley partied at WRRV's Boo Ball. To mark its triumphant return, there was live music from Probable Cause and The Hype, tarot card readings, and of course the legendary $1,000 costume contest.
Costumes at WRRV's Boo Ball
Some of the most impressive costumes were entirely homemade, like the hilariously-oversized "French maid" Minion and the body painted God of War (above). Even the bands were in costume, with Probable Cause dressing like Batman villains and The Hype transforming into the members of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
One of the highlights of the night was when The Hype invited the scariest costumes to join them onstage for Thriller. The Purple People Eaters, Beetlejuice, Michael Myers and more all joined the Turtles for an epic performance (below).
In a growing trend, humans aren't the only costume-wearers on Halloween. Dog costume contests have become increasingly popular not only in New York but across the world. Check out some awesome creativity from an hour north below.
