Tweet ideas · Halloween
Halloween on X runs for most of October, so you have weeks rather than one day. Costume posts and photos peak on the 31st; jokes about candy, horror movies and pumpkins work all month. The best ones turn an everyday fear (a screen time report, a Friday deploy, a 'quick question' email) into a spooky one.
Every tweet on this page is original, written for you to post or adapt. Square brackets mark the bits to fill in.
Costume ideas are some of the most shared posts of the season because people actually need them, usually at the last minute. If you post one, make it something a reader could put together tonight. Brands can lean in more than on other holidays: a horror story from building the product or a spooky changelog fits the mood without feeling forced.
Bought Halloween candy for trick-or-treaters. Ate the candy. Bought more candy. This is my process.

Costume idea: a 404 page. Plain white shirt that says '404: costume not found'. Done.
Going as the meeting that could have been an email. Just a calendar invite taped to my shirt.
Low-effort costume: a sheet with eye holes. Classic for a reason.
Couples costume idea: salt and pepper. Cheap, easy, and every photo of you two will be adorable.
My costume this year: a phone at 1% battery. Mostly just looking stressed.

Group costume idea for coworkers: everyone goes as an app on your phone.
Kid wanted to be a dinosaur. I made a dinosaur. Kid now wants to be a toaster. Send help.
