Sluttiest and Weirdest Store-Bought Halloween Costumes for 2012

It's almost Halloween — the time of year when the whole world does cosplay. Every year, the Halloween superstores roll out their new line of costumes that are vaguely reminiscent of the year's hit movies and television shows. Except a whole lot sluttier.

Check out our round-up of the trashy, strange and occasionally quite good costumes you can buy this year. Including the traditional "steampunk" and "steampunk vampire" costumes, that get updated every year these days. Now, at last, you have something to wear to your local steampunk gathering, that'll be just as good as what they spent months making from scratch! Or if not, you can bite them.
