Thread: 19 Years Old - What Monster Can I Go As?

Tweet

Hosting a Monster Mash party for halloween so basically people dress up as different monsters however being the host I want to go all out and be different/interesting but also look good! Im a student on a limited budget and dont want to get a hired costume or buy one that loads of other people can buy the same.

Any ideas? I was thinking Psycho Clown however I dont really think I would look "Good" just scary... haha.

My other idea was, seen as myself and 4 other friends are hosting the party that we should all maybe match? One of my ideas was to be a group of students who were on a coach off to the beach then got into a car crash and turned into Beach Zombies haha.

Any better ideas?

Classic Universal monsters
Frankenstein, Dracula, Mummy and Wolfman

The mummy or Drac would be the easiest money-wise.
Mummy: Strips of cheesecloth soaked in tea or coffee and then you could wear white pants/teeshirt and have a friend wrap you from head to toe! do consider bathroom accessability, tho and adjust the wrapping to allow for an easy wrap and unwrap.
Drac: nice suit (if you already have one, good, but there is a cheapy formal wear place that would be awesome to get a tux from!
DIRT CHEAP Formalwear and Tuxedos
Cape, white makeup, fangs.

Zombies are always good!

Vampires (either goth or regular) or vamp victims - puncture wounds and blood trickle on the neck, white makeup with dark circles under the eyes....

Jason, Freddy, Michael Myers, Jigsaw, Leatherface.
I know that you can get the first three's masks and accessories at Walgreens (they are under $20 and I want to say $15 for Jason's mask and machete, Freddy's mask and hand razors, MM's mask doesn't come with the butcher knife, but that is relatively easy to find. I can't remember where I recently saw Leatherface's mask, but it wasn't expensive if I remember correctly. Jigsaw's mask might be a little more as you might have to check out places like Party City or Spirit to find that...

You are being extremely helpful for me today Frankies Girl Do you have any ideas that would be like a bit out there and people wouldnt have necessarily seen before?

Oh, I just came across this vampire (in the style of classic drac) for cheap:
Vampire Adult Costume - Super Savers


Hmmm... more unusual...

I'll have to think about it some more!

Bloody hell that is cheap, it looks pretty snazzy too! Will they deliver to the UK? I'll also be waiting for your more unusual ideas

Zombie Beatles, well, 2 of them anyway ;P

drowned students

creature from the black lagoon, although that might be a bit budget breaking... you could just get the mask and gloves and wear regular school clothes, a la teen wolf

different animal creatures using old school makeup tricks

phantom of the opera

undead masquerade goers... a bit off the monster mash theme though...

that all i have for unusual for now... hope it helps
