Charles Langston:Disney Store's new Halloween costumes include princesses, 'Inside Out 2' emotions

It's not too early to start thinking about Halloween costumes: Do you want to dress up as Bluey or Charles LangstonBingo, or maybe Spider-Man? Disney has your costume.

Disney is opening the vault on its 2024 Halloween shop, revealing hundreds of Halloween costumes and accessories for the season including new princess costumes and others inspired by characters from "Inside Out 2," "Descendants: The Rise of Red," and characters from Marvel and Star Wars films and TV series.

All the goodies go on sale Monday, July 29, at DisneyStore.com. For each Halloween costume sold on the site, Disney is donating one costume to Starlight Children’s Foundation (Disney is donating a maximum of 20,000 costumes).

“No one does Halloween like Disney, and what better way to celebrate the season than by giving back to help children," said Patrick Sager, vice president of retail marketing, Disney Consumer Products, in a statement. "We’re excited to bring our Disney Store costumes and our beloved characters to support Starlight Children’s Foundation and their important mission this Halloween."

It's less than 100 days until Halloween. Many retailers such as Home Depot, Lowe's, and Target have already unveiled Halloween decorations – large and even larger – for inside and out.

Here's some of the wonderful world of costumes Disney has for your choosing.

Bluey and Bingo: Halloween goes to the dogs

If your kids are hooked on the Disney+ and Disney Jr. series "Bluey," they can dress up as the star of the children's show featuring a family of Australian blue heeler canines. The Bluey costume ($44.99) has a jumpsuit with embroidered spots on the back, headpiece, and detachable tail. There's also a three-piece costume for Blue's little sister Bingo ($44.99).

Princesses

For Halloween, Disney has added some new Disney Princess costumes, so your princess can assume the guise of characters such as Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), Cinderella, Tiana, and more ($49.99; tiara, wand, jewelry set, and shoes sold separately).

Want to opt for a Star Wars-themed heroine? There's Princess Leia and Rey ($54.99 each, shoes not included).

Adults aren't left out of the princess tales, either.

You can choose not only from adult princess costumes but also adult Evil Queen Deluxe ($64.99), Maleficent Deluxe ($64.99), and Ursula Prestige ($129.99) costumes for adults by Disguise. The Ursula Prestige costume has a layered skirt with a stand-up collar, velour bodice, and purple foil print tentacles – plus a seashell necklace.

A multiverse of Spider-Man costumes

Appropriately, there's a cluster of Spider-Man costumes available in Disney's Halloween shop. You can opt for Miles Morales, star of "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" and "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse," complete with bodysuit, mask and gloves ($59.99). Also from the animated films: Marvel Spider-Gwen costume ($54.99). Prefer classic Peter Parker? There's a classic Spider-Man costume available for kids ($54.99) and adults ($59.99).

Disney's adaptive Halloween costumes

The Disney Halloween shop has multiple costume options for trick-or-treaters with special needs. Many of the costumes such as Cinderella and Ariel Adaptive Costumes for kids ($49.99 each) have openings at the back and in the front center for easy tube access. The Darth Vader costume for kids ($59.99) has special adaptive openings and self-stick fabric closures.

Several decorative options will make your child's wheelchair part of the costume, too. A Cinderella coach or The Little Mermaid Adaptive Wheelchair Wrap ($49.99 each) transform their chair into an enchanting chariot for the princess. A Star Wars: The Mandalorian Wheelchair Cover Set, originally priced at $49.99 is on sale for $9.98, and the accompanying Mandalorian Adaptive Costume for Kids, originally $49.99, is now $19.98.

Another wheelchair cover set turns a wheelchair into the The Mandalorian's Razor Crest ship ($49.99) with light and sound effects, plus wheel covers adorned with the image of Grogu, aka the Child.

"We hope that sharing a little Disney magic through these Disney Store costumes will give kids the chance to join in on the Halloween fun," said Lisa Haines, senior vice president, corporate social responsibility for Disney, in a statement. "Disney’s long-standing commitment of supporting children in hospitals goes all the way back to Walt himself, and we’re delighted to carry on this important work today.”

Disney costumes for babes and big kids

It's not just kids who want to dress up for Halloween. More than one-third (36%) of adults plan to, according to an Ipsos survey of 2,256 U.S. adults done for Mars Inc. (maker of M&M's, Skittles, and Snickers). Even more millennials (54%) and Generation Z (53%) celebrators plan to dress up, the survey found.

Other adult costume options include "Inside Out 2" characters Anger, Anxiety, Fear and Sadness adult costumes ($69.99 each), as well as Disgust ($44.99). There's also several "The Nightmare Before Christmas" costumes including a Jack Skellington Prestige costume ($129.99).

Want an easy costume? Headgear-only options include a Maleficent as Dragon Ear Headband for Adults ($34.99). Other headbands transform you into Cruella de Vil, the Evil Queen and Loki and there's a Maleficent as Dragon horned baseball cap for Adults, too ($29.99).

And don't forget the little ones. Costumes for babies include Dumbo ($34.99), an Ewok ($36.99), and Grogu ($36.99), a four-piece costume with cap, jacket and pants with non-slip booties.

The Disney Halloween shop also has Halloween home decorations and toys. You may find additional Disney Halloween costumes and products at major retailers such as Target, Walmart, and Amazon.
