Halloween Costume Ideas for Adults

Halloween is the time of year when you either get the joy of being sick from eating 3 garbage bags full of candy, or the chance to dress up in the most ridiculous costume you can think of and not get in trouble for it. However, whenever it comes around each year, it’s also provokes the challenge of wearing something cool/creative/funny enough to top what you were wearing last year. Below are some ideas for both males and females on what you can be for Halloween. Remember, these are just ideas… improvise as much as possible and have fun doing it!

Males:

1. Buy a plastic Jason hockey mask and the closest cheap plastic toy blade that looks like his weapon. Then dress up in dark dirty jeans and dark ragged shirt. If you go to any good Halloween parties, I guarantee the sword with get broken/stolen within the first couple of hours, so it’s really just for the initially out-the-door show, and then it just kind of gets forgotten for the rest of the night. You don’t even have to wear the mask half the time, but put it on anytime anyone asks who you are and they WILL get freaked out once they are reminded of how much that hockey mask scared them back in the day. 

2. If you have a spare trench coat and black sunglasses lying around – dress up like Neo from the Matrix! Style your hair like Keanu Reeves and anytime anyone asks who you are (like it’s hard to recognize Neo!) just pretend you are falling backwards off of a cliff to imitate “dodging bullets”.

3. Wear a white robe, sandals, and grow out a beard. Tell everyone you are the Son of God and that you love everyone. Not only will this create controversy and a lot of attention, you get to wear sandals and grow out your beard!

4. Dress up like Satan and then walked around holding hands with someone dressed up like Saddam Hussein… 

5. Inspector Gadget – If you can pull this off with a trench coat, the hat, and all sorts of gadgets… you will win my respect forever.

6. Wear a robe and nothing else. I repeat… NOTHING else. When people ask, be creative. (No inappropriate behavior!)
