Dressing up as Frozen's Elsa this Halloween? Chances are, you won't be the only one.

On Monday's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Jimmy Kimmel predicted we'll see so many snow queens this Friday that we might as well rename the holiday "Elsaween." You have "to pretend to be excited" by each and every Elsa that comes to your door trick-or-treating, Jimmy said, and that's not easy when you've seen the same costume dozens and dozens of times!

The late-night host said that order to make each and every Elsa "think their costume is great and original and all those things," you have to tailor your reaction. He demonstrated how to do this—and how to "handle the coming Elsapocalypse"—by showing how he'd react to Elsa after Elsa after Elsa ringing his doorbell for candy.

At first, Jimmy tells a little girl she has a "great Elsa costume." He humors the next two snow queens, too, saying excitedly, "Ah! Two more Elsas! Here you go guys [extends candy basket]—have a good one!"

When an adult dressed provocatively as the Disney character came for candy, Jimmy asks this "sexy Elsa" if she's "a little old for this"! He also calls out after her, "Put on a sweater!"

After that, a bearded man dressed as Elsa comes to Jimmy's door in search of candy. "Well, that's unfortunate," says the comic laughingly.

Next, he encounters "a dog Elsa" in the form of an adorable, crown-wearing Corgi. "No chocolate for you," says Jimmy. "That's no good—you can have some beef jerky, OK? Happy Halloween!"

He gets excited when Chewbacca comes by trick-or-treating, but the little girl in costume quickly reveals, "I'm Elsa dressed up as Chewbacca" and shows off her Frozen getup.

That's not all, though—one of Jimmy's trick-or-treaters returns, asking for beef jerky after supposedly hearing about it from the dog! Watch the clip above to see how Jimmy reacts to that one!
