#september-11-2001

In the 2001 Greenwich Village Halloween Parade, just weeks after the September 11th attacks, two participants dressed as the Twin Towers with angel wings and halos, turning their costumes into heartfelt tributes. Their embrace symbolized unity, mourning, and the idea of the towers as reunited souls in the afterlife. That year, Halloween became a space for public grieving as much as celebration, with costumes and performances reflecting collective sorrow and resilience.
