Halloween approaches. Scratch that. Halloween weekend approaches. So that could mean you require more than one costume over the next three days. But what to wear, you locally-minded folks ask? SFist can help.

Sunday was the annual How Weird Street Faire, which took place on Howard Street (get it?), and it was just as colorful and lively as ever.

Scores of comic aficionados converged on Moscone Center this weekend to attend the annual Wondercon, our annual comic book, science fiction, and motion picture convention. Folks dressed up in colorful attire, emulating characters ranging from Captain America to Superman to (most splendidly) Bob's Big Boy.
Those Life-Size iPhone Dorks and 9 Other Supremely Expensive Halloween Costumes
NBC Bay Area has a cute gallery of a number of extremely involved and expensive Halloween costumes, including those guys who constructed two functioning, human-sized iPhones, and a guy who made a working, life-size Gameboy costume as well. What they call "supremely awesome" we call "trying too hard," but then again for Halloween we're fans of just drenching ourselves in the $11 bottle of theatrical blood we bought three years ago. Our only annual expense is the shirt we're wearing, which must be thrown away afterward, but yes we know lots of other people spend LOTS of money preparing for this holiday, and cheers to them. (And yes, the working iPhones are quite impressive.)
