What will you be? Back to Blog

Are you planning to dress up for Halloween this year? What are you going to be? I’m thinking about Medusa–should be easy enough to get some fake snakes to put in my hair!

If you’re looking for some costume ideas, check out this video. Interesting…

Let me know what you’d like to be for Halloween…I’ll pick one winner to win a mystery prize pack. Ah, yes *mystery* (that means a box full of paranormal books…just in time for Halloween!

    I’m going as Alice in Chains

    (dressing as Alice from alice in wonderland and wearing shackles on my feet and hands, lol yes I’m really obsessed with the band)

  2. Raonaid Luckwell says:

    I’m hoping to dress up as The Simi this year. That is if I have the money to get the hair dye to get black hair, and a skirt.

  3. Natasha A. says:

    I am going to a Superhero vs. Villains party. I am going to go as Poison Ivy…BUT, I am putting my spin on it. I found a straight jacket costume, so I am going to be Ivy in Arkham. I am soo excited! Hubby is going to go as King Pin from Daredevil! 😀

    I haven’t thought about this year so far cuz we aren’t sure if we can go to a party. But my best costume ever IMO was the Zombie-Conjoined-Twins costume I had with my bff a few years back. Was great cuz everyone always mistakes us for the other. Loved it!

    I’ll be going out in costume on the 30th and 31st. For the Goth Ball on the 30th I’ll be dressed in Victorian style clothing as a Vampire (caps and all, yay!). The following night (Halloween!) I’ll be going out in my pvc Cyber Geisha outfit and make-up.
    Happy Halloween! xx

    I loved that video, wonderful costumes!!! I usually go as a witch, but a bit different each year. I may not go to a party this year, but I will dress up to scare any kids that come to my door “trick or treating”!!

    My friends and I are going to a party as different Alice in Wonderland characters. I get to be the Queen of Hearts. My skirt will be a bit shorter though since we all drive tiny cars and I don’t think we’d all fit otherwise.

  8. Mel K. says:

    I won some chrome fangs a while back so I’m dressing up as a vampiressssssss.

    lol! Very clever, Christina!

  9. I am just going to dress as a witch, all we are doing this year is trick or treating but I just gotta dress up lol!

  10. I am going to wear all black and hot glue popcorn and candy wrappers to my shirt. I’ll be going as a movie theater floor;-)

  11. If I had a reason to dress up, I’d likely choose my favorite thing to dress up as: an ugly witch. None of this surgar-coated new age magic with sexy vixens in their witch hats. No ma’am! 🙂

  12. Jane says:

    I haven’t heard about any parties yet, so I probably won’t be dressing up this year.

  13. Teresa says:

    I’m going as a fairly traditional witch, while on a cruise. 😀 Yes, I’m emptying the coffers to go have a little fun! Hubby plans to be a blind football ref. Yeah, he’s a little frustrated this week. LOL. I understand teams won who shouldn’t.

  14. Taylor Z says:

    I was supposed to be going to this one party, but that got canceled, but then i got invited to 2 more…my costume is an army girl.

  15. Alexia561 says:

    Plan on dressing up as Raggedy Ann’s evil twin, Goth Ann! Found a cool costume, but will be adding a few touches to it in order to make it my own. Will also carry around a Raggedy Ann doll with a noose around it’s neck. Will probably traumatize my niece, but am looking forward to it! >:)

  16. Susan says:

    I’m going as myself which is scary enough. Just ask my kids 🙂

  17. AmyW says:

    This year I’m going as a funky style witch 😀 Cannot wait!!!!

  18. Angela says:

    I cannot wait for Halloween. Have a party to go to this year and I’m going as Xena Warrior Princess 😀

  19. Amy says:

    I’m dressing up as Glenda the Good Witch 🙂

  20. ann marie says:

    We are dressing up as prom queen disasters. My crown will be broken, my dress will have a tear in the side (or two) along with holes in the stockings, my sash will be shredded in parts and I will be missing a heel on one of my shoes.

  21. Michele says:

    Very excited this year for Halloween, taking the kids down to Disney for the Not So Scary Halloween party. I’m going as a Devil Fairy and my husband will be the Grim Reaper. Hopefully we won’t be kicked out of Disney for scaring the kids 😀

  22. Linda Henderson says:

    Well I’m not going to any parties but if I was I would like to dress up as Cleopatra, with a fake asp.

  23. Tracy says:

    I’m dressing up this year as Tina Turner. Got my short skirt, wig and the finishing touch, go go boots 😀

    And we rollin, rollin, rollin on the river 😀

  24. Minna says:

    If we would celebrate Halloween around here, I would dress up as a witch.

  25. limecello says:

    I’ve always wanted to wear some incredibly elaborate costume – like a regency gown, or something like that.
    However… if I dress up I’ll probably re-hash this Arachne costume a friend made for me in high school. (For a competition.) But it has this gauzy spider web print cape thing – it’s pretty hilarious. In the style of a tunic/chiton.

  26. Edie says:

    What a lot of parties! Love the Tina Turner idea.

    I won’t be going to a party or dressing up. Have fun with your snake hair.

  27. Brandy says:

    I went as Betty Crocker (from the cake and brownie mix fame) one year. We’re not attending a party this year and haven’t for several years, so I won’t be dressing up. I”ll be handing out candy to the kids instead. If I were I’d like to be Vampira. *G* It’s so out of character for me that it’s hilarious and would shock the heck out of everyone who knows me.

  28. Ina says:

    I would dress as a Greek godess 🙂 but unfortunately there is no party within my circle of friends…

  29. e_bookpushers says:

    Halloween, the start to my favorite time of year. This year I am dressing up as Mrs. White from Clue. I had a blast finding the different pieces and accessories :D.

  30. Donna S says:

    I am not going to dress up this year but if I did I would want to get this one: http://www.amazon.com/Fairy-Punk-Gothic-Halloween-Costume/dp/B001D3STA6/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1256240824&sr=8-14

    Its a Fairy Punk Gothic Goth Costume.

  31. Shari C says:

    I am hoping to go as a flapper from the “Roaring Twenties”. I have the outfit and just need to figure out the hairstyle to wear.

  32. Danny says:

    A gothic vampire witch

  33. Diane Sadler says:

    Ah! Halloween. I’m not sure what I would dress up as, but today I spent about an hour with my son in a Halloween store looking at costumes; not for me, I’m working Halloween evening but for him since he has a party to got to. He’s 27 years old and only wanted my input, but did not decide yet; so he will go back this week.

  34. Eva says:

    Not sure. I’m thinking vampire or fairy.

  35. Fedora says:

    I’m hoping to avoid dressing up this year, but if pressed, the costume at the ready is princess–I have an old bridesmaid dress that ought to work (lacy, pink, poufy…) and I’ll steal one of my daughter’s crowns 🙂

  36. RachieG says:

    I think I’m gonna be a kitten. 🙂 My weenie dog is going to be a hot dog!

  37. Nancy Gilliland says:

    I am working the neighborhood Trunk or Treat event, so I will go as the tattooed lady. I do temp tats for the kiddies, and I have a terrific assortment of my own tribal temp tats that look real when on. The kids love it, and I usually run out before any of the other activities. This year should be lots of fun.

  38. Lyoness2009 says:

    Ha! The plan is to be a ghost…I have some “new” old sheets I’m going to use. Maybe be a pretty girl ghost….gotta put my twist on it!

  39. Cathy M says:

    I am borrowing my sister’s costume this year, and will be dressed up as Raggedy Anne.

  40. RKCharron says:

    Hi Cynthia 🙂
    Thanks for the interesting video.
    I’m zombifying myself.
    My eldest daughter is going out as a St. Trinian’s girl.
    (from the recent movie).
    The younger daughter is going out as a 50s girl.
    My son (youngest) is going out as a vampire.
    🙂
    All the best,
    RKCharron

  41. Darkreader says:

    I don’t plan on dressing up this year, but we love to go driving around and look at all the decorations.

  42. Amy Kathryn says:

    I have a great Millificent costume (the evil queen in Sleeping Beauty) I got a few years ago at the Disney outlet. Very easy and very warm!

  43. Chelsea B. says:

    I’d probably go with a witch. I have the perfect hair! LOL

  44. I was just thinking about this this morning. And while I would love to dress up in something more fun, I think it will be really cold here for Halloween….and we tend to have lots of little tikes that trick or treat in my neighborhood so I think I am going to forgo anything scary and go for “inviting” with a giant bunny costume. Should be warm; everyone loves a bunny, and shouldn’t scare the little ones too much…and maybe put on a more sexy bunny outfit underneath for later 🙂

  45. Allie Harrison says:

    I think I’ll just put on my wings! It will keep people guessing!

  46. Jacqueline L. says:

    I’m not sure I’ve anywhere to dress up to this year but if pressed for a costume, I’ll probably go goth.

  47. Barb P says:

    Hi Cynthia! My husband is an optometrist and we are going as pair of eyes! We also dress up for the business districts safe Trick or Treat, for the area kids. We have eyeballs all over at the station outside of my hubbies office. What fun!

  49. Pamk says:

    I might dress up a demon mom. lol. I have some red contacts that I can put in with some red horns. Wonder if those crazy folks at work would notice.

  50. Lindsey Ekland says:

    I am going to a party as a space cadet. I have star earrings, silverish dress, sockings and glow-in-the-dark hairspray. I also have glowstick bracelets. Mabe I will find a crown and be a space queen.
