For the last several years, seven friends have been winning Halloween with their group costumes.

And they look to continue that tradition.


Starting in 2012, the friends picked an actor. Then each member of the group dressed as the star's most famous characters.

The friends met eight years ago. They were all hired by the same company.

They bonded over their shared experience and have been friends since.

Here they are doing Johnny Depp.

After the success of their Johnny Depp inspired costumes, the group knew they were on to a winning formula.

Here is their tribute to Jim Carey.

They made this their tradition for their annual Halloween party, and the internet couldn't be happier.

Here are their Will Farrell inspired costumes.

While the group took a break in 2017, in 2018 they came back with their best costumes yet!

They went with Tom Hanks this year, even though Halloween is still a few days away.

In case you need it, the women made a handy guide pointing which friend dresses as which character.

Every year they've done these costumes, the photos get shared online. The group receives a fantastic response to their creativity.

The group is always open to suggestions, and plan to do this for the foreseeable future. And yes, they have always chosen male actors to make it a bigger challenge.

Sometimes everyone needs to hush up.

Wouldn't that be nice?

If people could catch onto social queues and actually engage in conversation with another human, maybe then we'd be able to triumph at the basic art of communication.

But humans seem to be failing in this department.

So who among us hasn't been trapped in a nonsensical splattering of words we'd give limbs to escape from?

Be it a random fact of trivia that everyone knows, or even realizing there's a reason your parents were trying to instill a life lesson in you.

Being hit by a ton of bricks might actually be a welcome relief to the embarrassment that will run through your body.
