For those of you who haven't decided on your costume yet, the website Poets.org has an article on how to dress up as your favorite poet (includes Poe, Dickinson and Whitman, among others). Just click on the Halloween icon under "Celebrate the Season with Poetry" and it will take you there.

Pretty fun and creative. You could also put a Halloween spin on it- Zombie Poe, for example, or Vampire Dickinson. That's the fun part about Halloween- anything's possible, so go crazy!
