One of the best things about Halloween, aside from all the candy of course, is being able to dress up in costume. When we become parents, we don't typically get to go all out on our Halloween ideas. We use all our creative juices to help our kids with their costumes, but we deserve some fun, too. One of the best ways to get into the spooky spirit is to spruce up our outfit with a festive Halloween sweater.
We've seen Christmas sweaters and we're all about them because it allows us to put some extra holiday spirit into the day. So, why not do the same for Halloween? The weather is the perfect excuse to wear one as the days get chillier but it's not quite cold enough for a jacket. All those elements combine to give us the ultimate excuse to start shopping for cute Halloween sweatshirts for us.
For parents who are looking to add a little pizazz into their wardrobe, here are 18 of the cutest Halloween sweatshirts we've found to get everyone into the spooky spirit.

Let's Get Spooky
This pullover sweatshirt is perfect for any adult who wants to show some Halloween spirit without being too over the top about it. There's a choice between a golden orange and a classic gray, and along with the adorable phrase comes a cute little Halloween ghost, and some spiders.
Black Cat Whiskers
For something to scream Halloween, it doesn't have to be in our faces about it. This black pullover sweatshirt is a subtle nod to the holiday but can definitely work in the wardrobe outside the season. The sweatshirt comes in a variety of colors, but black is our favorite for Halloween.
Pumpkin Patch
Nothing screams fall more than a knit sweater and this one has the added adorable of being overflowing with jack-o'-lantern pumpkin patches. This would go well with our favorite leggings or a pair of comfortable jeans.

Another Glorious Morning
Hocus Pocus is one of those Halloween movies that we can watch over and over and fall in love every time. We feel like we're the fourth member of the Sanderson sisters crew and any opportunity we get to represent our love for them, we take it. This sweater comes with two different sayings on them and one or the other — or both — would be great to wear all month.
Halloween Pumpkin Crew
This cute Halloween sweatshirt has everything we think of when we have Halloween on the brain. It has pumpkins and ghosts, black cats, haunted houses, and spider webs in the middle of the sweatshirt giving the perfect spooky vibes without being over the top. This can be worn at home or work and it's comfortable, which is a bonus.
Lydia Deetz
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetleju…. Don't worry, we're not going to finish it and bring the troublemaker into our lives but we do want this sweater. Lydia is a rare character from our childhood who stood out because she was confident in herself and didn't take crap from anyone.
Sweet as Candy Corn
We recognize that candy corn isn't universally loved. Some people think it's the best candy ever and stock up at the one time of year they can get it, while others can't stand it. Either way, we can all agree that this candy corn sweater is adorable.
I Got a Rock
Want to be funny and nostalgic this Halloween? This adorable sweatshirt brings the Peanuts fun to any outfit.
Basic Witch
We love our coffee and even with the buzz of Halloween around, we can always use some help keeping our energy levels up. This sweatshirt highlights our love for Halloween and Starbucks — and it's not too over the top so it can be worn the whole month — or the whole season.
I Boo What I Want
If someone is looking for a shirt for an adult that has a little more sass to it, this one is exactly that. The phrase includes a Halloween pun and a little spooky ghost that is giving the middle finger out. It's a funny choice for a parent who doesn't take themselves too seriously (& maybe has older teens).
A Witch's Moonlight Ride
This sweatshirt features a captivating design of a witch soaring through the night sky on her broomstick, with a mystical bat silhouetted against the glowing moon. It captures the essence of Halloween with an artistic touch.
Spooky Skeletons
This Halloween sweatshirt features intricate skeletal embroidery on the front, adding a touch of edgy and artistic flair to your outfit. This stunning piece combines classic comfort with unique, eye-catching skeleton embroidery, creating a versatile addition to your collection.
Friends Horror Movie
This sweater is so funny — instead of the typical castmates from Friends, the sweater highlights the famous horror movie characters and it has everyone. Five characters just like the television show, except this isn't a group we would want to hang out with — right?
You've Been Ghosted
This crew-neck sweater looks like the comfiest thing we've ever seen, and it's got a vintage color palette, which makes it stand out. There's not an obnoxious amount of Halloween on here, just the middle top section with the ghosts and fun patterns on the rest of the sweater.
Let's Dance
Dancing skeletons are a Halloween classic, and this off-the-shoulder sweatshirt perfectly combines spooky and fun.
Ghost Halloween
Hoodies are the best kind of sweatshirt, and this one is just adorable to the max. It's subtle with the little ghosts in the center, white so they stand out. They're all different shapes of ghosts and they're the perfect size to celebrate without being too extra.
Ouija Board
We've all seen these boards, and they're the focus of many Halloween horror movies that we can't get out of our brain. The back of this sweater has the letters and numbers on the Ouija board, and we're curious to know if spirits can get in touch with this sweater? Only one way to find out…
