Scratch and Sniff Costumes
AKA the most 1980s thing ever! These are weird and probably wrong but I’m grateful they didn’t release a “Clown” or “Hobo” version.

Oh my…..You're right. These are VERY wrong. Can you imagine? "Trick or Treat, smell my feet…I mean…shoulder!"
Suddenly, the notorious Atari Asteroids costume seems much less of a stretch.
Another terrifying thought:
"Kid, stay still so I can scratch and sniff ya!"
Yeah, these wouldn't fly today.
Wow, these are the stuff of nightmares. Especially the pumpkin and rasberry ones. Makes me think of Halloween III.
