Although Disney characters and animals have inspired Halloween Costumes, choosing a frightening outfit is a great idea for people of all ages. When searching for a scary costume, there are many to consider for Halloween :
Freddy Krueger

As no other movie character looks like him, Freddy Krueger won’t be mistaken for anyone else. A Freddy Krueger costume usually includes every accessory. Along with a fedora hat and a striped jumper, a mask is also provided where the person who’s wearing it will look just like this serial killer. A ‘Chest of Souls’ can also be chosen. Made out of latex, this accessory makes a Freddy Krueger costume appear even scarier.
The Joker
The Joker, as played by Heath Ledger in ‘The Dark Knight’, is a terrifying character. Although Jack Nicholson played the Joker in an earlier Batman movie, Heath Ledger’s performance is celebrated more. The costume that Heath Ledger wore usually has a purple jacket and a green waistcoat. To complete this particular joker costume, buy a green wig and hair dye in order to look just like the Joker.

Although his costume has changed, Jason Voorhees is usually remembered as wearing a hockey mask and a brown bomber jacket whilst carrying a machete. In order to avoid added expense, choose a fancy dress costume where every accessory is provided. Therefore, an entire Jason Voorhees costume can be bought at once.
Michael Myers

Usually wearing a blue boiler suit and carrying a butcher’s knife, Michael Myers has appeared in various disappointing ‘Halloween’ sequels but he has remained scary. As his expression is constantly the same, Michael Myers’ costume is similar to Ghostface from the ‘Scream’ movies. By choosing this particular costume, its wearer will look truly terrifying, especially when a large plastic knife is carried. To make a Michael Myers costume even scarier, check that a wiry wig is included. As Michael Myers’ hair is wild and unkempt in every ‘Halloween’ movie, wearing a wig with this costume is highly recommended, especially as it will look just like the Haddonfield murderer.
Darth Maul
spooky halloween costumesSince appearing in ‘Star Wars Episode I: the Phantom Menace’, the Darth Maul costume has become one of the most popular Halloween Costumes around for people of all ages, in particular young children. By purchasing red face paint and all of the relevant accessories, such as a full-length light sabre, its wearer will look truly gruesome. When a father and son want to wear similar costumes to each other when trick or treating, they can decide to be Darth Vader and Darth Mail. As a result, they’ll look incredibly scary and will probably get more sweets.
