Each year hundreds of sets of twins pack a pair of bags and travel two-by-two to Twinsburg, Ohio, to celebrate their duality at the Twins Days Festival. This get together is the world's largest annual gathering of twins, which means it brings out all kinds of duos, wearing every kind of matching outfits.

It's like a double dose of Halloween!

Take a look at these pair portraits, including this one of rapping identical twins Margaret and Katherine King, straight from the festival grounds, and see why they say two is better (and more fun) than one.
