Salinas, CA, September 09, 2019 - Goodwill Central Coast, for decades a local treasure trove for
Halloween costume inspiration, has announced a special finger-snapping theme for the year’s spookiest
day.

Goodwill brings back the silly vibe of “The Addams Family,” the beloved American horror and black
comedy sitcom from the 1960s. Featuring a theme song punctuated by finger snaps, “The Addams
Family” brought to life a hilarious cast of misfits, including husband-and-wife Gomez and Morticia, their
butler Lurch and even a disembodied hand called Thing.

Each year finding the right costume at a price that is not downright scary can prove to be a daunting
task. Not at Goodwill Central Coast, with 16 outlets to help provide DIY inspiration — from Uncle Fester
to Cousin Itt.

And don’t forget your pets. Find inspiration in the curious lineup of “Addams Family” household animals,
including Kitty Kat the lion, Aristotle the octopus, Zelda the vulture, Isolde the piranha, and Lucifer the
lizard.

Goodwill invites everyone to support their community by shopping at a Goodwill store, or by simply
donating gently-used clothing and household items. Each donation helps Goodwill’s cause to help
empower people to work and setting them on a path to financial independence. Donations also help
preserve the Central Coast landscape by diverting millions of pounds from landfills.

From home pick-ups to potential tax write offs, Goodwill makes donating as easy as possible. Find out
