Halloween is for candy — especially eye candy.

Pure, a sex-positive dating app, recently surveyed 2,000 adults over 18 years old to unveil what costumes Halloween-goers planned on wearing this year.

According to the poll, 58% of adults are likely to wear a sexy costume, and 19% hope their disguise helps them end the night with a sweet treat — under the sheets.

But results show that women are putting in more work to look the part and lock in a potential boo because 72% of women are likely to wear a sexy outfit this year — compared to just 43% of men.

And apparently, the less you know, the better, because 80% of respondents found the anonymity of costumes to be a turn-on. 

Halloween is the night you can be anyone you want, and 56% of people are going full throttle with their costumes, even if people can’t recognize them.

Most female participants plan to channel their inner sexy dressing as Catwoman (16%), Harley Quinn (14%) and a nurse (11%).

Meanwhile, men are considering Batman (15%), a gladiator (15%), or a police officer (15%).

No matter what identity people decide to embody on October 31st, 39% hope to get laid even if it involves some kinky behavior.

If the night leads to role play, 75% of participants will be more than satisfied to fulfill their steamy sexual desires.

And for those who usually don’t get lucky, 76% of men and 49% have had sexual fantasies about a character they met at a Halloween party.

“Sexy and classy was my definite plan for Halloween,” Pure CEO Olga Petrunina confessed in a statement. “I went to a kinky party in Berlin, dressed in a latex outfit.”
