It’s that time of year again, where everyone gets dressed up as magical creatures, dead people or sociopaths, and it’s actually completely acceptable. Well, maybe this year you don’t fancy having the awkward ‘Oh, you’re dressed as a Witch too?’, maybe your ‘Slutty Witches Cat’ costume is feeling a little worn and overused, or maybe you’re heading out tonight and, oops, you still don’t know what you’re going as?
Well you’ve left it a bit late, huh? Just cut some eyeholes in an old sheet, and shout BOO at everyone who walks past, you can get away with that, right?
Wrong. Been there, done that, seen it all before… It’s time to be creative and come up with something a little different this year, and here’s a few which thankfully, you can get ready in time for tonight!
Mad Scientist
If you’re a science student, you already own a lab-coat so you’re pretty much sorted – if you’re not, I guarantee you know one, so bribe them with chocolate or pizza and see if they’ll lend you theirs for a night!
Simply back-comb your hair with PLENTY of hairspray, scribble a few equations on your arms, don a pair of goofy fake glasses and maybe add the odd fake blood splatter here and there, and voila. You’re a steriotypical sceintist, just be really weird, and chat about your ‘crazy’ experiments all night!
Hello, I’m….
… Great In The Sack!
If you happen to have a sack handy, (or make use of a box, or plastic bin bag) what better way to introduce yourself this halloween? It may not be a classically scary choice, but you know you’ll get plenty of laughs
The Thought-Provoking (easy) Serial Killer
One cheap white teeshirt and a few minutes with a sharpie later..
50 Shades Of Grey
Granted, this one might be a bit more difficult to replicate, but instead you could easily buy several varying shades of grey coloured teeshirts, wrip each of them in different places and wear over eachother so different layers and colours showed through.
Then go overboard on different shades of grey face paint all over your body, and hey presto – 50 Shades Of Grey!
If all else fails, buy some toilet roll and get your housemates to wrap you head to toe; within mere minutes you’re (arguably) a Mummy, just watch out, you’ll need a hand re-wrapping every time you go to the loo!
Happy Halloweening Everyone!
