Welcome back to Paranormal Hive's "Paranormal Prompts"! We’re excited to continue our series, encouraging members of the Paranormal Hive tribe to delve into eerie, unexplained and downright spooky experiences.
Today’s thought-provoking prompt revolves around a trope in horror and fantasy that often comes up around Halloween time:
What if you became your Halloween costume?

Imagine slipping into your costume this Halloween night, only to find that it has transformed you in more ways than one. This "becoming the costume" trope is a fascinating exploration of identity, perception and the mystical connections between our choices and who we are. What if, through magic or some supernatural force, you physically and mentally embodied the persona and characteristics of your Halloween costume?
When you become your costume you don't just wear it - you are it. If you dress as a vampire you might find yourself feeling an insatiable thirst for power and allure, perhaps even developing a predatory instinct. Alternatively, wearing a superhero costume would make you an actual superhero, giving you superhuman powers and a sense of justice. This "becoming the costume" transformation could lead to both fascinating and frightening outcomes.
This Halloween take a moment to consider:
What if like in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Halloween" or the My Babysitter's a Vampire episode "Halloweird" you became what you are dressed as this Halloween? Would your costume make you a threat to others or would it empower you to do good?
