Scare and slay: Filipino celebrities dress up as their favorite characters for Halloween
The spookiest time of the year is finally here!
Besides binge-watching horror movies and exploring places that are coated with a haunted past, one of the ways how Filipinos celebrate Halloween is by dressing up as their favorite characters in stunning and impressive costumes.
Here are some of the local celebrities who have managed to scare and slay in their Halloween getups:
Kris Bernal and Maymay Entrata
Kris Bernal and Maymay Entrata coincidentally channeled their inner Sailor Guardians and transformed into the beautiful and magical warriors of love and justice, Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury respectively.
Both Kris and Maymay donned their respective characters' Sailor uniforms, with Kris completing her outfit with a magical scepter and a gorgeous moon backdrop.
"If I am just fully capable of using Sailor Moon's scepter to heal the sick and wounded, return the dead to life, and even restore the whole planet," Kris wrote.

Pia Wurtzbach
While Kris and Maymay decided to dress up as protectors of the world, Pia Wurtzbach took a dark turn and slipped on the costume of one of the Powerpuff Girls' most dastardly enemies, Mojo Jojo.
The beauty queen is set to rule the world with her gorgeous violet cape, knee-high boots, and Mojo Jojo's signature helmet that covers his exposed brain, capped off with menacing lightning effects to complete her villanous aura.

Andrea Billantes is a vision of youth and radiant beauty as she donned the look of the ethereal La Muerte, a character from the 2014 film The Book of Life, wherein she is the ruler and queen of the Land of The Remembered.
Her awe-inspiring look is composed of an extremely large sombrero adorned with gold and black skulls and a fiery red sequin dress decorated with cempasuchil (Mexican marigold flowers), with the hem of the dress layered with more skulls and white candles.
Adding flare to her Halloween attire is her gorgeous sketeton makeup with rhinestones around her eyes.

The Crawford family
Billy Crawford, his wife and actress Coleen Garcia, and their son Amari kept their Halloween costumes simple by dressing up as Will Byers, Eddie Munson, and Eleven from the science fiction horror series Stranger Things.
"Didn’t wanna break our little tradition, so we did what we could. Also made the most of Amari’s (too short) haircut and took his photos before we left Manila. Billy said he couldn’t dress as any of the kids because of his beard. I told him he was wrong," Coleen wrote in the caption.
