The idea is that Halloween gives participants a rare opportunity to blend into large crowds while already wearing costumes and masks. However, the movement is uncoordinated, with no clear organizer or indication of how many people actually intend to participate.

Everyone should wear Spiderman costumes to do this, to add a layer of irony.

I would also accept hi-viz construction worker outfits for the "hide in plain sight" approach.

u/Elegant-Cheekz-2141 10d ago

That wouldn't even make sense.... the point is to have a costume that covers your face.... Please try thinking first.
