Halloween is the one time of year when we can all get away with being someone else for a day. Some people dress up as a ghost, goblin or their favorite Hollywood monster, while other's use the holiday as an excuse to dress in a ridiculous costume--or a ridiculously racy costume.

For the same reasons, celebrities capitalize on the day to do away with wearing lavish clothes and looking picture perfect to have some fun in the land of make believe. And, lucky for us, many of them have shared their weird, absurd and crazy costumes on social media for us to see!

Hence, we give you the top 10 celebrity Halloween costumes shared on Instagram.

10.
Starting off the list by coming in at number 10 is Lea Michele who dressed up as a barmaid for Halloween. Although the "Glee" star didn't earn a lot of points for originality, she and her Halloween twin did a great job at coordinating.

9.
Up next we have actor James Franco who decided to dress up as a witch. Even though his costume isn't too creative, his scary pose in this IG pic gives him some edge.

8.
At number 8 is Jessica Alba, who looked stunning dressed as Cher's character from the original "Witches of Eastwick."

7.
Joan Smalls came in 7th place dressed as a cute Monster's, Inc. character...we think.

6.
Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka ranked in at number 6 because they decided to include their two adorable children, Gideon Scott and Harper Grace, in their costume fun.

5.
Kelly Osbourne, number 5, did an excellent job impersonating Dame Edna.

4.
Nicole Richie and her dress-up partner totally nailed their costumes portraying Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 1988 hit movie "Twins!"

3.
For Lance Bass, who came in 3rd place, it was all about Wayne's world, party time, excellent!

2.
Hugh Hefner and his 27-year-old wife Crystal Harris sure knows how to party! The couple celebrated early Halloween at the Playboy mansion's annual costume party, dressing up as this year's MTV Video Music Awards' infamous duo, Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke.
