Arrow UNIQUE & UNUSUAL IDEAS for Halloween part one

Castaway: Take an old pair of khaki pants and tear off the legs to create shorts. Wear a dirty white T-shirt, beard and long hair. Carry a Wilson™ Volleyball (for extra effect put a red handprint and face on the ball).

Static Cling: Wear any kind of mismatched clothes, pin one pant leg up, pin dryer sheets on you as well as socks, small towels, etc., and then use hair gel to make your hair look like it has static.
Submitted by Kellie

Lightning Victim: Take old clothes, cut out some holes, then carefully burn the edges (kids get help from your parents with this!!!). Tease your hair so it sticks straight up, smudge your face and any exposed skin with black make-up.
Submitted by Billspj

Deviled Egg: Wear all white. Paint or attach a yellow circle to your stomach. Wear devil horns and carry a pitchfork.
Submitted by Dawn C.

Puppies for Sale: Take a large box and cut a hole in the bottom so you can wear it around your torso. Then write "puppies for sale" on the box. Use make-up to give yourself a dog's face.
Submitted by Sara Gross, 12 years old

Lead Role from the Movie "The Birds": Wear an old blue dress and attached fake birds (available from a craft store) pecking you all over. Wear an old pair of cracked glasses. Tease your hair and add scratches and blood dripping from wherever birds are pecking you.
Submitted by Stacey L. Adams

Floor of a Movie Theater: Dress up in all black and tease your hair. Apply candy wrappers, chewed gum, lots of popcorn. If you can, attach real movie theater cups or popcorn boxes for a realistic touch.
Submitted by Heather from Manassas, VA

Tornado: Dress all in black, paint your face black, wear a black stocking cap and black gloves. Find a bunch of "miniatures"--barnyard animals, hotwheel cars, tractors, houses, etc. Attach all of your accumulated stuff to black yarn or string, and fasten to your clothing with glue or pins. When someone dares to ask what you are, spin crazily around the room making a roaring noise!
Submitted by Ivana Frump and Melissa Thomas

IRS Agent: Wear a business suit, carry a briefcase, take 28% of the person's candy without saying "thank you."
Submitted by Tino T.

Leggo My Eggo: Wear pajamas and a bathrobe with the right sleeve burned. Put a wig in rollers and burn the hair on the right side as well. Buy an old toaster and carry it around by sticking your fingers in one of the slots... with a waffle in the other slot.

Little Dead Riding Hood: Wear the usual Little Red Riding Hood Costume and then use fake scars, wounds and blood to make it look like the Big Bad Wolf got you. Don't forget your basket!!
Submitted by Maria

D.B. Cooper: Dress in a nice suit with dark glasses. Staple Monopoly money so that it is coming out of all your pockets. Carry a backpack with a parachute looking thing (sheet) coming out the back. Carry a weapon. (You might want to carry business cards with a description of who you are, because many people will not know!)
Submitted by Bus 12

One Night Stand: Large box with a cutout for your head. Cover with tablecloth and use a glue gun to attach items for a nightstand (plastic champagne glasses with nylons draped over them, ashtray, cigarettes, condoms, candles, Tic-tacs, alarm clock, etc). Put a lampshade on your head with a small flashlight attached, shining down on the table.
Submitted by WGMmojo67

Cousin It: Take 2 or 3 grass skirts. Glue one to a hat so it falls down over your head, glue some sunglasses into the grass to accommodate seeing.
Submitted by Richann

Mrs. Potato Head: Use brown felt to make yourself into a potato, wear white leggings, turtleneck and gloves underneath, with red clown shoes. Make up some felt body parts (eyes, lips, etc., and attach Velcro everyone will be able to play with your parts!)
Submitted by Richann

Mimi (from the Drew Carey show): Blond wig, outrageous colorful clothes, lots of blue eye shadow & make-up.
Submitted by Richann

A Kissing Booth: Construct a booth using two boxes, with the opening of the top box facing forward. Add straps so the boxes sit on your shoulders. Spray paint the boxes white and then use red paint to write "Kisses $1" and "Kissing Booth" on them. (You might even make some money!)
Submitted by MattLmp

Wicked Witch of the East: Design a large box to look like a house. Place it over yourself, cut so you can see out, and so that your legs show. Wear striped stockings and red glittery shoes. (Or…wear black sweats and hang striped stockings with red baby shoes attached to look like the legs dangling underneath the house.)
Submitted by KristiH from Winston-Salem, NC

Alien Host: Attach an alien doll to your midsection. Cut a hole in the middle of your clothes so it looks like the alien is bursting through your stomach. Splatter fake blood around the hole.
Submitted by Paula MacKenzie

"Chip"-monk: Dress in a monk's robe, rope belt, etc., then hot-glue (empty) potato chip and/or tortilla chip bags all over.
Submitted by Sandra

Flasher: Wear "natural" colored tights and leotard. Buy curly fake hair at a costume shop. Pin the hair on the crotch of the leotard. Cover the outfit with a raincoat and carry a newspaper. Flash at will!
Submitted by Ztakr

Flasher (variation): Wear a trench coat with flesh-colored clothes underneath, or just shorts and a t-shirt. Take a couple of camera flashes (the old-style ones from the 35mm cameras) and attach them to a belt in front of your groin area. When you open the trench coat, activate the flashes.
Submitted by Gerry Zed

Anne Robinson from The Weakest Link: You could wear a shirt and slacks with a long jacket. Add fake or real glasses.
Submitted by Steph

Piece of Gum Under a Table: Dress in a pink jumpsuit. Prepare a small board with a checkered table cloth, and glue plastic dishes on top (plate, knife, fork, cup). Strap the board to your head.
Submitted by micheung

Partly Cloudy With A Chance of Showers: Wear blue surgical scrubs, glue cotton in a patchy pattern all over the shirt and carry a squirt gun.
Submitted by Rossdahl

Software Pirate: Dress up like a pirate. Wear a belt made of floppy disks, and hang chains of CDs from your shoulders.
Submitted by Tim C.

Bag of Jellybeans: Take two or three clear dry-cleaning bags and put one inside the other. Punch a large hole on each side next to the opening for the hanger (your legs will go into these holes). Blow up about 15-20 balloons of various colors. Turn the bag upside down and step into the leg openings. With your body in the bag stuff it with the balloons. Tie the bag off at your neck with a colorful ribbon.
Submitted by Anne Paulus

Igor: Use a white lab coat (or very large white men's shirt). Stuff a small pillowcase with cloth, close it, and sew it to the inside of the coat where the "hump" should go. Wear an old pair of dirty brown pants with the legs torn off raggedly just below the knee. Use a rope as a belt. An old ugly brown or gray t-shirt should also be ripped at the collar, sleeves, and bottom hem. For a finishing touch, carry a jar with brownish water (use mixed food coloring), with a chunk of cauliflower in it, which you have soaked in the brown water for at least a day (this is the brain). A shaved head is optional! Walk hunched over.
Submitted by Stacey

Cereal Killer: Take a bunch of empty miniature cereal boxes, stick plastic knives in the sides, paint with red paint or nail polish to simulate blood. Pin the boxes all over yourself.
Submitted by Burgess Hatch and also by A. Hatcher

Cereal Killer (variation): Take a package of small cereal boxes, 6-8 Kellogg's, and attach different things to "kill" them with. Examples: a small knife with blood, a mini pack of cigarettes glued on, different kinds of pills (overdose), mini noose, etc. You could also just use one big box with a "killer" idea on it.
Submitted by Kelly Ann DeMauro

Electrocution Victim: Take store-bought latex that can be heated, melted, and applied to the face. Prior to application, put black and red streaks on face. Then, apply the warm liquid latex to face. After the latex sets, apply more black and red on top of the latex. Cut into the latex to form scars, and fill these areas in with fake blood and touches of yellow liquid makeup. Take some old clothes and set fire to them in strategic places (kids get help from your parents with this!!). Rub some of the ash over the clothes and on your skin. Mess your hair up, and set with gel to appear that you have been electrocuted. Walk around with outlet the end on your fingers.
Submitted by Michael Kupferman

Road Kill: Wear gray sweats and a gray t-shirt. Use pieces of masking tape to make a dotted line down the front of the t-shirt. Use an old stuffed animal or two, cut random parts off (head, leg, tail, etc.) and use paint or fake blood to make the parts dirty and bloody. Pin the parts to your t-shirt.
Submitted by Carrie (similar ideas submitted by crankytammy and Tara Hettesheimer)

Road Kill (variation): Wear an old cat costume (or some other animal). Make tire tracks across the front, and add lots of blood splashes, etc.
Submitted by Wormus829

Monkey Wench: Dress up as a pirate wench, then add some monkey ears and a tail.
Submitted by L.B.

Half Asleep/Half Awake: Cut some “footy pajamas” in half, and sew one side to half a pair of pants and half a shirt. On the asleep side, put your hair in curlers, wear no make-up, keep eyes closed and wear a slipper. On the awake side, curl your hair, wear make-up, and wear a shoe. Carry a pillow on your asleep side, and a briefcase on your awake side.
