It isn't officially Halloween until Neil Patrick Harris shares with the world what he and his family dressed up as for the holiday. Thankfully, they did not disappoint this year.

NPH, along with his husband David Burtka and their two kids, donned a carnival-themed getup that was equal (and absolutely perfect) amounts adorable and terrifying.

The "Burtka-Harris Halloween Carnival of Curiosities" included Harris as a ringleader, Burtka as a horrifying clown, and their twins Harper and Gideon as a bearded lady and a strongman, respectively.

In the past, the family has been everything from pirates to characters from the Wizard of Oz. Basically, they put every other family on the planet to shame when it comes to Halloween spirit.

Who knows what next year will bring!
