This Netflix movie took over Portland’s list of popular Halloween costumes

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — With Halloween fast-approaching, Portlanders have their eyes on some trending costumes — and no, an inflatable frog is not one of them.

Every year, Google Frightgeist reveals which spooky season looks are most popular across the U.S. while also ranking the most popular costumes in certain regions. In the Portland area, the top five costumes reflect nationwide trends.

Rumi, from Netflix’s “KPop Demon Hunters,” took the Rose City’s No. 1 spot. The character is one of three members of the K-pop girl group featured in the Netflix fantasy film. Her groupmates, Zoey and Mira, are also trending as the second-most and fifth-most searched costumes in Portland.

Another character from the record-breaking animation, Derpy the Tiger, landed at No. 4.

The only high-ranking costume that was unrelated to the movie was a Labubu, the collectible plush toy that went viral over the summer.

Labubus and “KPop Demon Hunters” also took over the rankings of the top 25 costumes nationwide. Minecraft’s chicken jockeys, Elphaba and Glinda from “Wicked,” “The Lorax,” and the nurse from “Silent Hill” were among other popular searches.

Elsewhere in Oregon, Care Bears, Raven from “Teen Titans,” aliens, Uncle Fester from “Wednesday” and Pomni from “The Amazing Digital Circus” were the Eugene area’s top picks.

Bend-area residents are searching for costumes of Labubus, Lord Farquaad from “Shrek,” Tinkerbell, clowns and Cookie Monster from “Sesame Street.”

In the Medford area, Ghostface from “Scream,” “Shrek,” Rumi from “Kpop Demon Hunters,” fairies and “The Lorax” were popular.
