The officers can be seen holding a sledgehammer and wooden bat while huddled round with other cops at the start of the clip.
The cop dressed as Deadpool can then be seen standing beside a woman in front of a haul of narcotics.
He is also filmed escorting her through the streets, before walking with her inside the police station.
Cops seized 54 bags of cocaine, along with 850 packets of coca base paste and 2,000 Peruvian soles (approximately £410), local media said.
The items were displayed during a press conference, with the cops still wearing their superhero outfits.
They stand beside an officer who explained how they were wearing Halloween outfits as they are “specialists at camouflaging”.
He adds that, if it’s Halloween, they will go to the streets of Rimac, giving sweets to children “according to the festivity”.
The officer said: “They knew about a criminal organisation that trafficked drugs.”
The Policía Nacional del Perú posted footage of the incident on X, writing: “The Witches of Alameda family clan falls!
“Dressed as comic book characters, Green Squad agents arrested aliases Muelon, Gorda, Viejita and Pequeña in #Rímac .
“They seized various drugs and confiscated money and other items.”
