Jenna Dewan says the family’s yearly trip to HomeGoods fuels a Halloween makeover that’s bigger than ever.
Key points
- The Dewan‑Kazee family’s Halloween prep centers on an annual HomeGoods shopping trip where the children pick decorations.
- Everly’s enthusiasm for elaborate décor pushes the family to create a more immersive Halloween environment each year.
- Costume choices often involve custom, hard‑to‑find pieces, especially for Everly’s anime‑inspired outfits.
Actress Jenna Dewan told PEOPLE that she, her fiancé Steve Kazee and their three children have turned a simple store run into a seasonal ritual. Each October the family visits HomeGoods, letting the kids fill a basket with whatever décor catches their eye, then uses the haul to transform both the interior and exterior of their home for Halloween.
Dewan explained that the tradition grew out of daughter Everly’s love of holiday decorating. The 13‑year‑old, whom Dewan shares with ex‑husband Channing Tatum, reportedly “asks for a house‑wide makeover,” prompting the family to go “more Halloween than we’ve ever been” in recent years. Dewan gave a shout‑out to HomeGoods for the annual supply run.
Annual HomeGoods haul
The family’s past celebrations have been documented on social media. In 2023 Kazee posted a TikTok tour of a house decked with purple and orange twinkle lights, thick cobwebs, a skeleton at a piano and a foyer table laden with treat bags, all staged for Everly’s 10th‑birthday‑themed party. Earlier Halloween photos show the children in whimsical costumes: Callum as a green frog, Rhiannon as cotton‑candy‑inspired ruffles, Dewan herself as a fly with glasses and antennae, and Kazee repeating a piñata outfit from 2022.
When asked about costume planning, Dewan said Everly often chooses obscure anime characters that require months of Etsy hunting for the right pieces. Despite the challenge, Dewan described the process as “fun” and now a predictable part of the family’s holiday rhythm.
