Stars dressed up to scare for Halloween
GLAM, wicked, sexy or ghoulish, local celebrities took the chance to gamely dress up this Halloween in popular characters they once dreamed about to essay, fondly portray or idolized.
They did manage to scare in this spookiest time of the year, where artists made an effort to dress up and look different.
A number of celebrities opted to celebrate Halloween out of the country, as they took the long weekend to recharge and spend some time off away from Manila.
Kris Aquino, who returned to the country only last September after staying in the US for more than two years, where she battled her auto-immune diseases, spent Halloween in Japan with her sons, Josh and Bimby.
It’s Showtime host Vice Ganda spent the short break in Hong Kong, with close friends Bernard Cloma and designer Paul Cabral. Vice decided to paint the town red when she wore the Catwoman costume.
Also in Hong Kong briefly were Zsa Zsa Padilla and her daughter Nicole, while Anne Curtis was with her chef-hubby Erwann Heussaff in Cambodia.
Meanwhile, even in the local front, celebrities did not pass up the chance to dress up in outfits and characters that they once dreamed about.
TV host Raymond Gutierrez attended a party wearing navy blue pajamas, with matching sleeping mask and pillow. He was with long-time friends Solenn Heussaff and Georgina Wilson who looked unrecognizable, as well as actress Carla Humphries.
Miss Universe 2018 title holder Catriona Gray sported a wavy wig and figure-hugging pastel pink, sexy lingerie similar to a Victoria’s Secret model. She completed the angelic look with the brand’s iconic wings.

Rhian honored Taylor by looking like the pop superstar in the latter’s albums through the years.
Cassy Legaspi decided to honor a local character earlier portrayed by Angel Locsin as Alwina in the popular fantasy series, Mulawin.
In a white armor and sword, complimented by a large pair of wings and a feathered head piece, Cassy posed as if she’s ready to fight off the Ravenas.
Meanwhile, young actress Kyline Alcantara went wicked as she dressed up like a mangbabarang or a sorceress who uses black magic to slay their victims.
