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 !

Gomez Addams

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.

• A black tie
• Black wig 5.22£ from Amazon

Beetlejuice & Lydia

This is also great if you are a couple or just want to wear a costume with a friend ! Beetlejuice & Lydia are characters from the 1988 Tim Burton Movie, and the animated serie of the same name.

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
• Blonde wig 16.99£ on Amazon
