3 Perfect 'Riverdale' Group Costumes To Do With Your Crew This Halloween

As Halloween approaches closer and closer with each passing day, TV fanatics are running out of time to put together the perfect group costumes with their friends. Seriously, it's barely even a month away, people! So if you're looking for an easy group costume to put together quickly that will also announce to the whole world your love of trashy TV, look no further than the characters of the CW teen drama, Riverdale. Here are a few group Riverdale costume ideas to try this year.

Now, admittedly, Riverdale is based on the Archie comics, so I suppose these are technically Archie group costumes, too. Just like, the sexier, cooler, and darker version of an Archie group costume. Plus, because they are just regular people, the costumes are fairly easy and cheap to put together just by hitting up your local Goodwill store. And isn't that what Halloween is really all about?

1. The Core Four, Riverdale Style

It's an obvious choice, but a classic one. Grab three friends and assign yourselves one of the following characters.
