A classic : The Addams family
Wether you’re celebrating with your SO or with your friends, you can decide to go as the Addams family and there will be an idea for everyone !

You’ll need a striped blazer, but if you don’t want to buy one any other blazer will do, gomina, a black wig, a black tie and a black pencil to draw a mustach.

Edward Scissorhands & Kim
If you want something less gloomy, but still very Halloweeny, Tim Burton’s other movies are very good inspiration !
For Edward

Buffy the Vampire Slayer ( & friends or random vampires)
Buffy’s costume is something you can probably do with clothes that you already have. I’ve chosen an outfit with a leather jacket that she actually wears with red leather pants, but it can work with a pair of jeans or black pants
- Black leather jacket 36£ on Asos
- Red leather pants 19.99£ on Asos
