It's one of those holidays you either love, or hate. Halloween. In Texas, it really kind of depends on where you live. Austin was HOPPING with trick-or-treaters, and all the houses in nearly every neighborhood would comply.

Amarillo is a bit different, as there are hot spots you need to hit on October 31, or you can hit up one of the many trunk-or-treat events held around the city.

One thing that remains the same though is the want and need for costumes. Whether it's a party you're headed to, or the kids need something to dress up as, costumes are the one constant. The hardest part is figuring out what exactly you or the kids are going to dress up as.

Sure, you can go into a Halloween store like Spirit and see what's hanging out on the shelves, but you want some creativity, something different. Problem is, you're drawing an absolute blank. Maybe it's just that you can't decide, or maybe it's because you don't know how many different things are out there.

If it's the latter, allow me to help you out. I've got 10 costumes here that are definitely something different from the norm, and should at minimum give you a couple of ideas if you're stuck in a rut trying to figure out what to be.

So without further adieu, here are 10 of the top costumes people are talking about in Texas.
