Bronx residents are preparing for Halloween.
Frank Bee's in Throgs Neck is one of the places where they're going for costumes.
"People start as early as the end of August, the beginning of September," says Wayne Baker, the store owner. "It is a last-minute holiday though."
The store bills itself as a Bronx costume staple since 1957.
Workers say superhero costumes are the most popular this year, but people are also dressing up as politicians and Pokemon.
