Halloween Children Costumes Scarecrow Witch Candy Bags 1960s Photo - 4 x 4

This 1960s snapshot captures two children in Halloween costumes standing together indoors, holding bags likely used for collecting candy during trick-or-treating.

Halloween traditions of the period centered on simple, recognizable costume themes and neighborhood participation, with children often carrying handmade or repurposed bags to gather treats. The emphasis was on practicality and creativity, with costumes frequently assembled from everyday clothing and minimal accessories.

The child on the right wears a wide-brimmed hat and light-colored shirt, holding what appears to be straw or raffia, suggesting a scarecrow costume. The child on the left is dressed in a darker outfit with a pointed hat and decorative trim, resembling a witch costume, and holds a cord or strap connected to a small bag. Both children face the camera, their expressions relaxed and slightly playful, reinforcing the candid, documentary nature of the scene.
