Movie Themes

It’s always fun to dress up as a character from a movie, and you may want to come as your favorite character. One of the favorites for girls and women is the Corpse Bride. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on a costume, most of the effect actually comes from the body paint. Be sure to experiment before the big night in order to get the right look for your costume though!

Another favorite movie theme is the headless horseman. This costume can be made at home with a little creativity or purchased at a store. Great for both men and women, you can be fairly simple or go more elaborate with blood and other elements. Horror costumes are always a favorite, so be sure to think outside the box. Look through some of your favorite horror films to get ideas.

Remember also that it doesn’t just have to be a horror themed character though. You may want to go as the scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz. Consider making an “evil scarecrow.” If you have a favorite character from a book or a movie, you can think of interesting ways to make a darker version of that character. It’s certain to stand out at a party or event.

Consider Making It Sexy

Scary Halloween costumes don’t just have to be creepy, you can also go in another direction and make yourself walk the thin line between scary and sexy. Start by getting a sexy costume like a cheerleader, nurse, or some other character that you like. Then, make it into a zombie. With a little fake blood and a few minutes with the scissors, you can create a great look for yourself that’s perfect for Halloween. Scary Halloween doesn’t just have to be about making a creepy statement, you can also look your best this holiday!

Don’t Forget The Masks

Many of the favorite  Halloween costumes aren’t complete without a mask. You can make or put together a lot of your own favorite costumes, but you’ll probably have to splurge on a mask. But, even if you end up buying your own at a store, that doesn’t mean it can’t be unique. You can make your own adjustments to the mask, add certain touches to make it your own and stand out in a crowd.

These are a few ways to get started on your scary Halloween costume this year. Remember that your creativity is the only limit to what you can come up with this year. These ideas can give you a great place to start and spark your imagination to create a truly memorable costume.
