Every year, pop culture trends seem to shape the way kids choose their Halloween costumes (or determine how a parent is going to dress up their little one to win cool points on social media). There are always a handful of popular costumes per year — sometimes they're a hit regardless of age group, others just in kiddo-land — but only one a year has taken the top spot for the youngest trick-or-treaters over the last 26 years.
Whether you'd dress your kid in one of these now or not — Scream was popular back in the '90s . . . parents couldn't say no to the nightmare-inducing costume — read through to see which costume was most popular for kids each year since 1990.
