#CrappyHalloweenCostumes. We've seen the sexy nun costume on Black Chyna, then the sexy Ebola nurse costume hoax a few days ago, and now there's a real "Sexy Ebola Containment Suit" and also "Fat Girl" costumes from Walmart.
Many are calling these costumes insensitive, but online retailer BrandsOnSale, thinks the Ebola suit is just coming at the right time. This is at a time where two American nurses have just been declared Ebola free, while some are still being treated or in isolation.
Most of the reaction on Twitter was not favorable to the costume.
"I'm in complete and utter disgust."
"The fact that there's a sexy ebola nurse costume proves the sexy costumes have gone out of control."
On the other hand, Walmart has apologized for their ill-thought Halloween category, titled "Fat Girl Costumes."
After Twitter users complained in droves, Wal-Mart took down the section and sent out multiple apology tweets.

@KristinSecorsky This never should have been on our site. It is unacceptable, and we apologize. We worked quickly to remove this. -Jes
