Halloween 2021: The best costume rental shops in KL for last-minute Halloween inspiration

It’s spooky season, so here’s a fun fact: Did you know that Halloween is widely believed to be originated from the ancient Celtic harvest festivals where people would light up bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts? As years passed, the spiritual and religious activities no longer remain, although dressing up in costumes is still a big part of the festivity.

October 31 is right around the corner, and if you’ve yet to get your costume sorted for the return of (SOP-filled) physical celebrations this year, fret not! Here are seven costume rental stores where you can score the perfect get-up which can also be delivered to your doorstep:
