From ghostly firefighters to superhero MPs, people across Singapore got creative with their Halloween outfits and celebrations, each putting their own spin on the spooky occasion.<\/p>\n
In an Instagram post on Sunday (Nov 1), Bukit Batok Fire Station shared photos of firefighters with white towels draped over themselves and glasses perched on their heads, giving them a ghostly appearance.<\/p>\n
The firefighters were seen posing inside a fire engine, as well as standing behind an SCDF fire engine while sporting their makeshift costumes.<\/p>\n
Accompanying the photos was a caption: “Don’t worry, we’re still on standby. Just don’t expect us to answer the doorbell.”<\/p>\n
\nMeanwhile, the police also joined in the Halloween fun with a spooky-themed social media post reminding residents to stay alert and safeguard their homes.<\/p>\n
“It’s 3am, you live alone, and you realise you aren’t the only one laughing,” the post read.<\/p>\n
“Sometimes that spooky ‘gut feeling’ isn’t a ghost at all. Stay alert, safeguard your home and know that if someone breaks your peace, our officers are ready to step in.”<\/p>\n
\nFrom costumes to community spirit<\/h2>\n
Beyond the spooky costumes, Halloween also saw people coming together for celebrations across the island.<\/p>\n
Former MP Amrin Amin joined in the festivities by dressing up as a Foodpanda delivery rider for the Chip Bee Gardens Halloween street party.<\/p>\n
In a social media post, he joked about potentially switching to Grab if the benefits were better.<\/p>\n
“Might switch to Grab if the benefits are better. Are they?” he wrote.<\/p>\n
Beyond the costume, Amrin took the opportunity to show appreciation for actual food delivery riders, who continue working through different weather conditions.<\/p>\n
“The real riders keep our orders coming, through heat, rain or haze. Go easy on the ratings if they’re running a little late. Much respect,” he added.<\/p>\n
\nOver in Keat Hong, residents also came together for a night of Halloween festivities.<\/p>\n
In a social media post, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim shared highlights from the area’s Halloween Fright Night, which featured a best dressed competition.<\/p>\n
Zhulkarnain also joined in the festivities, dressing up as what appeared to be a Marvel superhero.<\/p>\n
“Residents of all ages turned up in an array of costumes, ranging from adorable little monsters to more elaborate Halloween outfits,” he wrote.<\/p>\n
He added that the event was about more than just a night of spooky fun, as it brought the Keat Hong community closer by giving neighbours opportunities to connect, share joyful moments and build meaningful friendships.<\/p>\n
“It is this strong sense of togetherness that makes Keat Hong such a vibrant and welcoming place to call home,” he added.<\/p>\n
