Each year, millions of people dress up as someone they admire, something they find silly, or something that suits their personality. While most of us are less than mediocre when it comes to dressing up, these people are legends!
1) Your Fire Isn’t Warm
This dude dressed up as a fire for his costume party. He made sure to entertain guests by warming the house all night. Or at least they were drunk enough to think that he was doing so.
2) I’ll Take a Chalupa
This Taco Belle dress is everything that we could ever hope for. The month that she finished making this dress, she appeared in a Taco Belle commercial in a different dress!
3) I Put a Spell on You
These are the most convincing Hocus Pocus witches ever! Not only are their clothes legit for today and the original movie, but their expressions are spot on. The only thing seperating them is that these witches are even prettier!
4) Best Princess NA
Is this not the prettiest Princess Leia that you’ve ever seen? He put a lot of effort into his costume and even found an R2-D2 hiding in the back of the closet. Now this is innovative!
5) It’s Been 25 Years
Though this isn’t from any specific fandom, it is one of the best costumes that I’ve ever seen. This young man is a lost hiker found on Mount Everest. The details are immaculate down to his frostbitten fingers.
6) When You Have Triplets
If you have triplets, then you have no choice but to dress them as Harry, Hermione, and Ron. This grandpa dressed his son and grandkids for Halloween and we think that’s incredible.
7) Call Me Raven
Many people have been Raven and many people have been Mystique, but not many people have tackled both at the same time! This Mystique is transforming into her favorite form.
8) Is That Phineas and Ferb?
Yes, she’s watching Phineas and Ferb. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s try to appreciate how amazing this Frida Kahlo costume is. She looks like Salma Hayak’s version of her!
9) Who’s More Attractive?
We can’t decide who is better looking: the man side, the woman side, or that statue behind them both. This dude proves that he can look good no matter who he decides to be.
10) Darth Mom
When you beat cancer, you need to celebrate iwth your son by suprising him on Halloween. This kid had planned on being Darth Vader for some time. That’s why his mom dressed as Darth Maul without letting him know!
11) Attractive Incredibles
This must be the most attractive Incredibles family that has ever existed. Those pretty parents make gorgeous children, and their portrayal of an Incredibles family is spot on.
12) You Don’t Want to See the Back
Gory costumes will never go out of style, but when your school has regulations as to how gory you can get, cut-in-half man is a great option. It’s easy to do and is quite spooky!
13) Making Kids Cry Since 2015
This No Face from Spirited Away is a classic and this little girl is adorable portraying it. But not everyone agrees that it’s all fun and games. Some of her friends are quite afraid of her.
14) Super Scary
There’s nothing much more frightening than your computer crashing. This computer crash/grim reaper hybrid must have won a costest for originality because we’ve never seen it before!
15) Super Trooper
This undead Stormtrooper took a lot of work and dedication. Who would have ever thought of destroying a new Stormtrooper suit and creating this masterpiece? Han Solo in the background does nothing but good things for this costume too!
16) That’s Daft
These Daft Punk costumes are something that anyone can do and no one would think of doing. Remember just a few years ago when Daft Punk was everything? Who are we kidding, they’re still the bomb!
17) I Swear on My Mother’s Rechargable Batteries
This Rosie costume actually did win a prize for originality. And we understand why! This girl did an amazing job of portraying the Jetsons’ maid and did it in a way no one would ever expect.
18) Cutest Little Sadness
The best costumes are the ones done without any shopping beforehand. That’s how this Inside Out family was born. They used whatever they could find in their closets!
19) It’s An Oogie Boogie Night
This Oogie Boogie is so well done that if it were nighttime, we’d be quite frightened. Do you think this is exactly what this little girl wanted to dress up as? If so, she’s the coolest kid on the block.
20) Mother of Dragons
Daenerys is one of the most common costumes of the last few years. So, whenever you do it, you gotta do it right or else you’re just like everyone else. However, this girl, she did it right! That dragon eye is scary!
21) Just Like Granny
One of the best things you can do on Halloween is dress up as your hero, as someone you truly admire. That’s exactly what this sweet little girl did when she dressed as her grandmother.
22) That’s Not What We Meant
When the people at work said to dress as dominoes for their office party, someone didn’t get the memo and came as a piece of Dominos pizza. Now that is one funny coworker.
23) What A Darling
This girl scared all of her friends when she dresses as this horror for her Halloween party. There’s a reason she’s taking her own picture, it’s because all of her friends are too afraid to.
24) Don’t Try To Sell Him an iPhone
This dude dressed as Steve Jobs for Halloween and stopped by ehte local Apple store on his way to the party he was attending. He got quite a few looks considering Steve Jobs had already passed at this point.
25) That’s Innovative
This is exactly how you dress the part. This amputee is such a good sport that she dressed as Fiona with the canon lost arm! She even chose the most beautiful replacement.
26) Who’s the Real Turk?
Wait, are we seeing double because this is the best Turk cosplay that we’ve ever seen. The tattoo is the only thing giving away the imposter. We have to say that we are impressed.
27) He Looks Frightened
Again, why not dress as the person (or cat) that you admire most. That’s what this guy did when he dressed as his cat for Halloween. Boy, does said cat look freaked out!
28) Gene Wilder?
If this isn’t Gene Wilder dressed as Gene Wilder in Young Frankestein then the Earth really is flat because nothing makes sense. This guy looks more like a young Gene than the orignal actor does!
29) Has All His Ears
This Van Gogh is gorgeous! Just don’t stare straight into his eyes as they are intense! People complain about this guy not cutting off his ear for the part but those who do don’t know the true story.
30) Hunka Hunka Peter Pan
This Peter Pan loves his daughter so much that he dressed as whoever she wanted for Halloween. Since she was Tinkerbell, she had her daddy be Peter Pan and that is what every father should do.
31) Cameron?
Yes, this guy looks just like Cameron Frye from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. That said, he is supposed to be a short man on stilts since he is naturally seven-foot tall. That’s such a good idea we feel silling for thinking about Cameron.
32) He Looks Just Like Him
This Donald Trump impersonator looks more like Donald Trump than Donald Trump does. Looking at them side by side, you’d be convinced that he actually is the president!
33) Gender Swap at Its Finest
If you’re going to gender swap, you have to commit. That’s why these two won the best couples costumes at their party. Harley is extra adorable and The Joker has as much personality as a villain can.
34) Only Australians Understand
According to this girl, only Australians will understand this costume. According to other Australians, that is a magpie and magpies are even and you shouldn’t go anywhere that you might run into one.
35) Those Some Anglers
These angler fish are both beautiful and scary. These young girls did an amazing job of creating such a costume! From the lights to the teeth to the scales on their foreheads!
36) The Scariest Costumes Ever
Now this is the scariest costume that we’ve ever witnessed. What makes it even scarier is that it’s a couples costume. We not only have an extremely low battery but we also have no wi-fi.
37) Perfect Marge Hair
Marge hair is not easy to pull off, says everyone but this lady. She does an amazing marge with nothing but blue cotton balls and a green dress. If there were a live-action version, we know who we’d cast.
38) Little Ludo
The Goblin King has never looked so fine and Ludo has never been more adorable. That’s something we never thought that we’d say because the originals are just about as good as you can get. Just about.
39) Acid Trip
How is this for original? This girl dressed as an acid trip for Halloween to confuse her high guests and let others know what it’s like to do drugs. Don’t do them! That’s the gist of it.
40) Out You Go
This costume never gets old. This girl dressed up as a Mexican being deported by Trump for her Halloween party. Let’s just hope the school didn’t send her home because that would have been ironic.
41) Hijabi Goddess
This Hijabi is absolutely beautiful. If you live by a dress code, that doesn’t mean you can’t join in on the fun this time of year. This girl proves it with her adorable pigtails!
42) Hidey-Ho, Neighbor
Who doesn’t love Wilson from Home Improvement? He’s the character that inspired Ned Flanders on The Simpsons. His catchprahse “Hidey-Ho, Neighbor” is one used by millions to this day.
43) Now You’re Mine
This guy proves that you can be whoever you want for Halloween if you have the skills to pull it off. No one would expect this transformation to be possible and yet he nailed it.
44) Never Want to See This Again
Let’s not stare for too long. This guy used a little facepaint to pull this one off. Oh yeah, and a 3D printed face! It’s so simple, yet so devastating. Let’s hope there weren’t any kids around.
45) Stock Photo Madness
What better costume than one that gets memed every day? Stock photos are so in right now and if you can find one that suits your job or look, then you are going in the right direction.
46) They Attac
When Mars Attacks, we admire just how accurate they are, ack ack ack. This family slays every year with their costumes and we are stoked to see what they do this year!
47) Coolest Weatherman
Most weathermen have personality but no one is cooler than this meteorologist who dressed as the sun for Halloween. At first glance, it’s confusing, but when you see him in action, you can’t help but smile.
48) Just Keep Scrolling
This is the scariest thing I’ve ver seen. If you watch American Horror Story, you’ll wish that you didn’t because this Twisty is far too real. If you don’t watch it, then you should probably try to forget this because Twisty won’t forget you.
49) It Moves
Who would ever consider being an x-ray for Halloween? It’s so smart and can go so many ways. You should really see her when she opens her eyes or removes the clear screen from her face!
50) Vote 2020
You know who would make the best president in the world? This adorable baby boy! He should defintiely run as soon as he can. So, like forty years, right? We’ll be there!
51) The Brass Bikini
This couples costume is everything we did and didn’t want to see today. You would assume that the woman would be Leia but you shouldn’t make assumptions, now should you?
52) Atoms!!!
Like Taylor Swift and her James Dean dream, punny costumes never go out of style. This couple is going as the Atoms Family! Their facial expressions are priceless and their atoms are in orbit.
53) Fresh From the Freezer
This is genius! You know that conspiracy theory that Walt Disney isn’t dead and he’s actually alive, just frozen at Disney World? Well, here he is, back from the “dead” and ready to judge every post-90s Disney movie!
54) He Loves His Painting
The way this Bob Ross looks at his happy little trees makes every single girl out their super jealous. And yes, that is his real hair, which makes us even more jealous! What a cute couple!
55) He’s Only Eleven
Many young girls have dressed as Eleven from Stranger Things, but this is the first guy I’ve seen. It’s funny because he actually looks like Eleven which is super creepy when you think about it.
56) Only the Fearless Can Be Great
Ratatouille is one of the greatest Disney movies of the 2000s. It’s become a classic and has been quoted millions of times. This simple costume is so smart that I know what I’m going as this year!
57) Amputee Glory
Another amputee slaying today with his Woody costume. He dressed as Woody in Toy Story 2 when his arm started falling off. This is great for when you want to freak out guests by tearing your own arm off.
58) Heeere Fishee, Fishee
When her Orthodontist told her that she would ahve braces by Halloween, she decided to use it to her advantage. She took on the most beloved brat on Finding Nemo. Wake up, fishy!
59) Fun Chemo Day
When cancer bites, you bite back even harder! Even cancer can’t stop best friends from celebrating at the hospital with these Spy Vs. Spy costumes! If you don’t know who this is, you need to learn.
60) Every Boy’s Dream
Every kid wants to dress up as a dinosaur at least once in their life. But not every kid gets to because not every kid has parents that can craft this masterpiece out of a mattress pad.
61) If This is a Dream…
This Drogo is everything we want him to be. You know he showed everyone at his office party up with this killer costume. Everyone else is going around with a “this is my costume” t-shirt on.
62) The Very Best Dad
This must be the very best dad like no one ever was and these aren’t tears, it’s allergy season. Since his kid was confined to a wheelchair, this dad created a Pokeball for him!
63) Too Bad
This is the “this is my costume” t-shirt guy. Only this time, he actually did it right by putting at least a little effort into it. If you are too lazy to make a costume, then give this a try.
64) Is This Real Life?
A life-size lego? This is every kid’s dream, and most adults to be frank. If you look closely, you can see that this is legit and not photoshopped. To see this in person would have been amazing!
65) It’s A Him
Anyone who watched Cartoon Network as a kid knows who this is. It’s HIM from Powerpuff Girls in all his glory. He was the creepiest villain on the show and so many kids’ favorite.
66) Amazon Prime
Ahaha! It’s Amazon Prime! Get it? Amazon Prime is a thing and so is Optimus Prime. This girl’s cosplay won her office Halloween party and it definitely deserved it. Just look at the windows on her chest!
67) He’s Not Coming Back From That
This Archer is so cool it makes us wish we could ress as comics or cartoon characters and get away with it. Most people try to bring them to life but this guy looks did it the other way around.
68) Weird Costume, Al
Do you thik this chick dressed as Weird Al because she looked like Weird Al or is she really that good at Halloween? While she is muchy prettier than Al, she does an awesome job of portraying him.
69) They Won the Office Party
I probably didn’t have to tell you that they won their office party costume contest because it’s pretty obvious that this group of friends is the best. And all you need is some green spray paint!
70) Hands are Too Big
Okay, we get it, the joke is that Trump has baby hands. Whether it’s true or not is beside the point ebcause this kid wins Halloween with the passion he has for his costume.
71) The Voices
Has anyone seen that creepy Ryan Reynolds movie called The Voices? It’s kind of like this. Have you seen a mom cooler than this? And not just because she’s in a freezer!
72) She’s An Adorable Doll
This is so adorable that we can’t help but smile. This is this mom’s first attempt at making a costume and she did amazing. What matters is the smile on Sally’s face when she puts on the dress.
73) Those Some Ghostly Legs
Who knew ghosts could be so saucy? At first, you may see a regular old sheet ghost like on Charlie Brown. But then you get the full picture and you see that this is the prettiest ghost you’ve ever seen.
74) Cutest Little Twins
Okay, imagine this, you step onto this elevator and see these two. They say, “come play with us.” Do you get on the elevator or do you run away screaming? Yep, defintiely the second one.
75) Gorgeous Gelatin
This may be the most beautiful jellyfish anyone has ever seen. That’s saying a lot too considering jellyfish are naturally beautiful when the swim. This is a costume anyone can pull off if given the resources.
