UNC students will flock to Franklin Street dressed to the nines tonight for Halloween. Assistant University Editor Sofia Edelman talked to students about their plans, their costumes and their reasoning behind those costumes.

We’re going to be the Final Five, like the five gymnasts who competed in Rio at the Olympics this year … Personally my favorite is Laurie Hernandez...but yeah it was perfect because there was five of us too so it was like ‘Oh my gosh, it’s like five people and five people,’ so it worked out really well.
Cecilia Blomberg, senior health policy and management major
I’m going as a glow-in-the-dark skeleton just because I really like doing makeup and I’ve been doing makeup for a long time so it’s going to be, hopefully, really scary … I’ll have the makeup on my hands and stuff and then I’ll probably be wearing some kind of crop top so I’ll have like a spine coming through.
