On 31st October, 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the door of the church in Wittenberg, accidently jump-starting what became the Protestant Reformation, scaring the bejeezus out of Roman Catholics everywhere.
If that's not worthy of a hallowe'en costume, I don't know what is.

Your partner can come as the nun he ended up marrying!
There were apocalyptic preachers at the time who were convinced that the son of a priest and a nun in rebellion against Rome simply would have to be the one who was the prophesied AntiChrist.

I used to attend very conformist Presbytarian church in Pennsylvania (don't ask). On halloween the kids in the church would dress up either Luther or his bird an cermoniously nail the treatese to the church door. The kids in frenzy of excitement having spent the upcoming weeks creating and memorizing said treatese.
And they cancelled Christmas too.
