I started this homemade zombie costume with a suit from the Thrift store, brown shoes and white shirt. I ripped out pieces from the suit. I then added details with fake blood and red paint. I added moss to the shoes and different parts of the body. I then used a plastic bone that I … Read more
Hi, my name is Jon, my wife’s name is Shanda, and our son’s name is Christian. It all started about a month before Halloween. I was trying to come up with a costume idea for my two year old son. Last year, we dressed him up as Sully from Monsters Inc. He was a big … Read more
Hey everyone, I’m the creator of the costume and am wearing it as you all can see. I grew up watching “Nightmare On Elm Street” as well as the “Friday the 13th”, “Halloween”, and “Child’s Play” movies, but Freddy Krueger stood out as the most gruesome of them all. The deception/illusion is credited towards those … Read more
I love the movie Slither and the character Grant Grant, so my wife and I took clear trash bags, liquid latex, paint, duct tape, poly fill, spray glue, tan shirt, and a pool noodle and made this bad boy. Only thing we didn’t make was the mask, and monster hand we painted! We took clear … Read more
When I was about 5 years old I hid in the kitchen of my mother and father’s home watching “Child’s Play” for the first time. When it was over I came out to let my parents know I had been watching and I was not scared of this murderous doll. So for my birthday on … Read more
Well, this Halloween, I wasn’t thinking of wearing a costume at all. You see, in my country, we don’t really celebrate Halloween the way other countries do. We just simply have small horror booths and that’s all– a bit of Halloween costume fun for the kids at the mall but nothing much for the teens … Read more
It all started with a plastic bag over my head. (Holes cut to breathe of course) then we wet the plaster strips and began with an X and then top and bottom and then covering the rest of the face and head until all that was left were the eye holes. We then took the … Read more
We had been planning the costume for months, but waited until the very last minute to throw it together. So the day of the party we finally went shopping. It took lots of sifting through nightgowns, dresses, wigs, shoes, etc to find exactly what we wanted- but we couldn’t have been happier with the way … Read more
I wanted to be scary this year, I knew Carrie would help me achieve this but let me be creative! I couldn’t find a prom dress in thrift shops so I opted for a “goddess costume” that I cut pieces off of to make a generic type dress. 2 nights before my party I used … Read more
The scariest of all scary!! Being a fan of horror The Exorcist, for me, tops them all. This costume was so easy and the makeup was so much fun! I took an old night gown and smeared baby food peas all over it and let them dry.. gross! I also took an old brown wig … Read more
The costume took 2 hours in total to apply, it was completely mad using liquid latex, cotton buds, metallic spray paint, a bald cap, face paint and a cape. First I had to apply 5 layers of liquid latex to my face and bald cap which I left to dry and then I covered it … Read more
The idea for my costume this year started with looking on Pinterest. I noticed some grayscale costumes, and thought “how neat”, they look like they came right out of a black and white movie! I started to think about some of my favorite old horror flicks and Alfred Hitchcock films came to mind. I decided … Read more
