Leigh is HalloweenCostumes.com’s Inbound Marketing Manager and a lover of all things fun and adorable, specifically Minions and puppies. (They're tied for first.) For Halloween this year, she plans to recreate Kristin Wiig's Saturday Night Live character, Dooneese.

This Friday, we can catch our favorite little henchmen in their new movie, Minions. We last saw Stuart, Kevin, and Bob in the ending credits of Despicable Me 2 as they were auditioning for their roles in the upcoming film.
