Scary Werewolf Costume for Boys

Scary Costumes for Kids

Halloween should always be a howling good time. It totally makes sense that werewolf costumes will always be a worldwide favorite. Cause kids are great at getting into character. You know how kids do wolves. They go around growling around with their hackles hunched and their hands formed into claws. This werewolf costume will make all that frightening stalking and growling more picturesque. And if you need more options, we have plenty of wolf costumes for girls, adults, and even babies!

Scary Devil Costume for Boys

Scary Costumes for Boys

Your kid is a leader. It makes sense that they wouldn’t be a simple demon from the depths. Your kid can be the devil himself! Scary Halloween costumes for boys can be a little gory at times. Not so with this look! The dashing red devil featured here is sure to stand out in a street full of trick-or-treaters. With a bossy attitude and a pitchfork to give them extra authority, your child’s devilish new persona will rule this Halloween!

Scary Clown Costumes

Do you know someone who has coulrophobia, otherwise known as an intense fear of clowns? If they get nauseous, sweaty, and their heart starts to beat fast when they know a clown is walking around the mall, it's safe to say that your friend has coulrophobia. We get it though. There's just something about a clown's bright red nose, over-sized shoes, and bright colored curls that makes us cringe. Gone are the days where the terrifying jokers made kids giggle at birthday parties, now they just make adults run in fear. So if you're in the mood to make lots of people tremble with dread, we recommend clowning around!

Pennywise Costume

Evil Clown Costume

Did Tim Curry embody the most terrifying clown ever created? It's possible because Pennywise still gives us nightmares. That receding hairline, those yellow, jagged teeth, and that eerie balloon he carries are all reasons why the evil clown still makes us shudder. After all, Stephen King is one of the best horror novelists of all time, so of course his brain would conjure up a character as wicked as Pennywise, and dressing up as this clown means that you'll become one of the most horrifying fictionalized characters ever conceptualized. Don the costume and experience what it's like to become Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

Women’s Scary Clown Costume

Scary Clown Costume for Women

Hear-ye, hear-ye! It is time to announce the most sinister member of the royal court...the one and only, Scary Clown! Whatever you do, don't call this jester a clown. She's much more than some dope who tells jokes and juggles. This jester entertains the king but not in ways that you'd think. She performs macabre style magic and entertains the court with creepy dark comedy that will make your skin crawl. If you're looking for a medieval style costume that will make people say, "yikes," rather than, "wow," this Scary Clown costume for women is the one for you.

Killer Clown Costume

Killer Clown Costume

Clowns aren't really intended to cause nightmares, but we suspect that a lot of them end up creating a few to say the least. However, it wasn't until Hollywood came up with the concept of killer clowns that people began to fear them. We don't know about you, but we kind of enjoy the new and scary take on clowns. Get ready to channel the crazy jokesters when you dress in this black and white clown costume. Complete your horrifying look by picking up a makeup kit or a mask to create an appearance that will make people cower in fear. We have a feeling that you'll love giving fellow party-goers a bone-chilling Halloween experience!

Giggles the Clown Costume

Creepy Clown Costume

Meet Giggles. He's half clown, half monster and 100% terrifying. With larger than life hands and a gruesome grin, you'll have a frighteningly good time dressed as the one and only Giggles. This redheaded psychopath holds a big barrel gun in one hand while reaching out to grab a few innocent souls with the other hand. So, what kind of experience will you have when you dress as Giggles? It'll be an adventure that will have people shrieking in terror while you giggle underneath your creepy mask. So, it's easy to see why this clown is named Giggles, isn't it?

Scary Scarecrow Costumes

Country creep is a whole different kind of creep. There are isolated country roads surrounded by tall corn that could hold any number of murderous villains. Walk down a country road and someone (or something) could be watching you at any time. It makes sense that some of the best horror stories out there feature scarecrows with a super serious chip on their shoulder.

Sadistic Scarecrow Costume

Scary Scarecrow Costume

If you’re looking for a scarecrow costume with an eerie face, this scarecrow costume is the way to go! The mask features deep black eyes and an eerie mouth with bloody jagged teeth on the interior. With a plaid shirt, burlap material, and a faux leather peaked hat will make your scarecrow look admirable at first glance!

Killer Scarecrow Costume

Creepy Scarecrow Costume

We wouldn’t touch this scarecrow with a ten-foot corn stalk. This nightmare level scarecrow costume is super creepy but comfortable with a lightweight mask that’s topped with a wide-brimmed faux leather hat. The long brown tunic is belted with a hard, molded rope belt and rope cuffs to make sure your country look really hits home!

Frightening Jeff the Killer Makeup Tutorial

In order to do a correct Jeff the Killer makeup application you'll need to round up all the supplies listed in the video. Once you have all of the necessary utensils, you can begin the makeup process. First, roll the scar wax into a tube shape and apply it alongside both sides of the face to create an elongated creepy smile. Take a sharp object and cut slits into the scar wax where a smile would go. You will need to seal the fake skin and the slits you made with Fixative A. Next, cover the nose in a thin layer of liquid latex and single sheets of tissues. Keep applying until you're happy with the consistency. You may need to do many applications of this step until you get the consistency that you want. The third step is to cover the face in white makeup followed by white powder. Don't forget to do the eyebrows! Do more than one application if necessary. You can also put in the white contact lenses at this time. Apply the red shade inside the mouth slit that you created and cover the eyes in black cream makeup. After this is done, you can add the coagulated blood gel inside the slits of the face. If you want to, you can add dripping blood down the mouth but that part is up to you. Finally, tease the black wig for a messy look and place it on your head. Now get out there and start terrifying people with your Creepypasta style makeup application!

Scary Costume Ideas

Although clowns and scarecrows are incredibly creepy, they are not your only option for a scary costume. You could always dress as a character that is classically spooky, too. Our favorites happen to be zombies, mummies, ghosts, skeletons, witches, and reapers. Ghosts and skeletons might rule the graveyard, but they'll be ready to take your neighborhood by storm when you dress as these perennial favorites. The popularity of zombies is at an all-time high thanks to some big-name movies and shows like The Walking Dead, so create your own zombie look to rise from the dead with some gory makeup. With styles for men and women, these scary ideas are sure to cause a fright!

Women’s Ghost Costume

Scary Ghost Costume

What would it be like to have the ability to walk through walls and scare the pants off of random people? Sounds cool to us! Get in touch with the paranormal by dressing as a spooky ghost. You'll feel like you've crossed over to the other side when you paint your face white and blacken your eyes. Ghost costumes have really advanced since the old bed-sheet days. Now you can be a Victorian ghost, a pirate ghost, a gossamer ghost, or even a zombie ghost. Whatever phantom you choose to dress as, make sure to practice saying, "BOO!"

Scary Skeleton Costume

Scary Skeleton Costume

No one will have a bone to pick with you when you're dressed as a skeleton. Ladies will love wearing this hooded skeleton costume with cutouts in the shoulders and detachable leg warmers because they get to experience what it's like to be sexy and spooky all at once. Set the look off with face paint to whiten the skin and hollow out the eyes. Top off the look with black lipstick and you'll be the most stylish skeleton at any scary shin-dig. You can choose to scare people or give them a lesson in anatomy!

Scary Zombie Costume

Scary Zombie Costume

Perhaps the most horrifying costume on our list is a zombie costume. It's an eerie choice for both men and women. This look could require a prosthetic makeup application and fake blood, but that choice is up to you. It's a good idea to pick up some white contact lenses if you really want a look that will make people turn and run the other way when they see you coming. Finally, if you really want to commit to your zombie costume, we recommend practice walking and moving like a zombie. Practice your best creepy walk in the mirror before you set out of the streets to hunt for your first meal!

Mummy Costume

Scary HalloweenCostume

A mummy costume is a good choice for men and women who want to incorporate a little bit of history into their scary look. Wrap yourself up in a costume that is not for the faint of heart. You'll look like you just busted out of your sarcophagus when you're draped in ragged cheesecloth. For the ultimate experience, we recommend that you add dark eye shadow to the rims of your eyes to achieve an undead look. We have a feeling that you'll freak out anyone who crosses your path...this classic look has been scaring people for thousands of years!

Scary Witch Costume

Scary Witch Costume

You'll be spellbinding in a bewitching look that can either be as enchanting or as creepy as you want it to be. With a witch costume, you can decide your level of scariness. For instance, if you want to be a wicked witch, add green face paint, a long fake nose, and a prosthetic wart. Then, of course, you have to practice your diabolical cackle. If you want to go for the enchanted storybook type of witch, add a long hooded cape, some black lipstick, and carry a potion bottle as a prop. You can really get into character by concocting your own potion or waving a wand around.
