Father Mag, a parenting and lifestyle magazine, analyzed Google Trends data from September 15th through October 15th to identify the most popular Halloween costume in Canada in 2021 and found costumes based on the popular Netflix series, Squid Game are the most searched for in most of Canada.
It should be no surprise that Squid Game topped the list as #squidgame tag on TikTok was viewed more than 22.8 billion times.
While Squid Game costumes dominated the search in B.C., Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and PEI, Harley Quinn costume is the top choice in Newfoundland & Labrador.
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick favour the witch costume and Cruella won the search pattern in Saskatchewan.
Princess, Cruella, Witch, Dinosaur, Fairy, Harry Potter, Pirate, Harley Quinn and Clown are the other top 9 Halloween costumes.
Father Mag says their analysis also showed that Squid Game-based costumes are popular in the U.S.A, Australia and Ireland.
