Halloween Already?
So perhaps you're wondering how Halloween can be ranked #11 on the Lycos 50 already, when October 31 is still a full seven weeks away?
The answer: everyone else is already putting together their Halloween costume. (And you'll wait until the last minute again, won't you?)
It's true: last week "Halloween costumes" was the most popular query related to the holiday. It got even more queries than the word Halloween itself.
Here's a full list of last week's top 20 Halloween-related searches, with the percentage of all queries received by each:
37.4% Halloween costumes
26.4% Halloween
4.7% Children's Halloween costumes
3.7% Halloween crafts
3.5% Halloween party ideas
2.9% Halloween screen savers
2.8% Halloween decorations
2.5% Adult Halloween costumes
2.4% Halloween ideas
2.3% Halloween props
2.0% Halloween masks
1.7% Infant Halloween costumes
1.5% Halloween pictures
1.3% Halloween clip art
1.1% Halloween games
1.0% Haunted house ideas
0.9% Halloween recipes
0.7% Halloween party games
0.7% Halloween toddler costumes
0.5% Halloween kids costumes
First of all: who are all these people dressing their infants up in Halloween costumes? That's an odd one.
If you total up all the various costume searches in that top 20, you get a whopping 47.5% of all Halloween searches devoted to costumes. That's a definite trend, all right.
Given that popularity, we've looked down our search logs even further to see what individual costumes people are looking for. Tomorrow we'll reveal: the exact costumes you'll be seeing at your door this Halloween! Tune in then, won't you?
