The Expert’s Best Halloween Costume Guide

This coming Halloween for sure, you are looking for an even more original, scarier, creepier or even sexier Halloween costume so you can stand out from the crowd of monsters, Yetis, Pirates, Evil Emperors, Demons, Ghosts and Elvis. -Looks like, right? But as the occasion approaches, it seems that you are not the only one who is looking for the best Halloween costumes so the question is where can you find the most original or the most unique?

For decades, people thought of ghosts and fantasies and sinister costumes when it came to Halloween. One would like to end up as an evil Jack-o-Lantern. Another evil soul will start thinking about dressing up as an ugly ogre (well, ogres are ugly by nature, right?). Anyway, you might even think of being a mischievous goblin who steals babies from their mothers and asks them to guess his name or something.

But today’s Halloween is no longer about being scary and there are plenty of costumes to choose from, online and offline.

You can start with the usual horrible costumes. First, you can choose between being a vampire, a werewolf or even a lycanthrope, a “half-breed” of vampire and werewolf like in that movie of these ugly, blood-sucking creatures attacking each other.

Or it may be Van Helsing, the man responsible for hunting down and killing hundreds of vampires and werewolves and bringing Mr. Hyde to justice. If you want to be more scary, you can go for a nasty imp or a poltergeist or a zombie who wants nothing more than your neighbor’s fresh brains “straight out of the can.”

Now, because many people would like to join in the fun, even moms and dads, Halloween costumes date back to the 1950s, 60s and 70s. They can dress up as Elvis, or as Jimi Hendrix or even become a fan of the 70s disco with that afro hair and stylish pants and 9-inch heeled boots.

Or you can choose to be one of the superstars of wrestling that you adore. Check out these Hell Fighting Suits: The Ultimate Warrior, The Powers of Pain, Demolition, Road Warriors (Legion of Doom), Rockers, Killer Bees. You can even become the Undertaker or his brother, the evil Kane. How about being a goth-metal guitarist or shock rock belter like Alice Cooper, KISS’s Gene Simmons, or Motley Crue’s Nicki Sixx? What about Twisted Sister? Heck, they are the craziest bunch of people, but they can be good examples of rock star Halloween costumes. What about cartoon characters? Surely, you are not saying that you cannot remember Snow White or the 7 dwarfs or even Cinderella? Their costumes can be fabulous head-turning on spooky Halloween night.

There are many ideas that you can choose from when planning to celebrate Halloween in a unique way and the best Halloween costumes can be found online and the examples listed here are all available at your fingertips. Of course, if you’re on a budget but still want to celebrate the holidays, you can still try going online and get some tips on how to make your own Halloween costume.
