I'm going to merge with Tastosis, and together we will form the largest three-person Archon in history. We will roam the streets of South Korea, pillaging and plundering candy. Even if they don't celebrate it, all the candy will belong to us.
My existence-as-a single-sentient-being for Candy Aiur!
I've been wanting to dress up with people as the cast of Trapped in the Closet. We would walk around with a boombox repeating that beat and freestyle about what we are doing.
Putting on this bad boy and finding some brightly colored clothes to match the clown look. I will then be hanging around downtown and neighborhoods scaring the shit outa little kids. I will be 21 btw when Halloween arrives.
I love Halloween I get one really nice mask a year ($40-70) and wear it and scare people where I live.
Been growin out the beard to go as Jesus this year.... that pic from the funny pictures thread with the with the sign that says "It's Judgement Day... show me your tits and they will be judged." Yep that's going to be me
Ive always had this idea to go as a sort of "muppet" version of myself. Just get some felt for my hair and make some clothes out of it that look like something I might wear. Put a few lines on my face and draw on some stitch marks. Then just walk around all day like muppet and make some obnoxious laughs after ridiculous one liners. I think this may be the year though.

I'm going to be waluigi since I already kind of look like him. Gonna make my own hat, and the rest of the shit I can just get at good will or some thrift store. Except the orange sultan clogs and the mickey mouse gloves. Where to find those...

Some of the department stores are already playing Christmas songs here...
I was thinking doing something for one of the many inside jokes my group of friends have since we are all going out together. Either a frog or as the zombie king since I have picked up those two nick names this semester (anthropologists are weird :D)

Um, that is like ten different kinds of awesome! Would love to see pictures if you're comfortable posting them.
Halloween is my favorite holiday! I'm going to dress up as a character from a Tarantino film too (Gogo from Kill Bill). Last year I was Hit Girl from Kick Ass. I seem to have a penchant for dressing up as deadly little girls.
I'm going as michael cera from juno. Already bought the stuff, just waiting for it to arrive in the mail. I look kinda like him, and lots of girls have crushes on him, so you never know - !
Lady GaGa in her Telephone video, the hat i made is ready, just need some white higheels for one day (nah, have to present them to my girlfriend then) and make the plastic dress and need to get a wig... make-up.. well, what's a sister good for, lol?
Who wants pics? btw, i'm a guy, lolxdroflpwn, you weren't ready for that, admit

I'll probably just borrow an animal costume from my friend, maybe a dinosaur one. I'm lazy and I hate the cold, so a warm ready to use costume is perfect. I only really like halloween for the girls anyway and for some reason they can't resist talking to a guy dressed up as an animal.
I've got to figure out something I can wear that won't freak out my daughter (she's 18 months), so no crazy face makeup this year. I've been wanting to go as Zed from Zardoz. If I can find boots, I think the rest of the costume should be pretty doable.
I think I may be Snape. My hair is about long enough anyway, I would just have to dye it black. The whole process of putting together the ensemble sounds like something that is really fun to do as well, but I haven't ever given it a try. Will have to change that in the next week or so.
Just finished watching the Man With No Name trilogy a few months ago and decided that would be my costume this year. All I need is a poncho and a hat, so shouldn't be too difficult. I was planning on getting a revolver lighter like in Rock n' Rolla, but I'm a little short on funds :\
I miss my Rorschach mask from two years though. I almost died from heat stroke in it, and I'm pretty sure it partially reshaped my face because I made it out of pantyhose; but at least it looked fucking bad ass.
We are allowed to dress up at work, I work at a retirement home and i serve the old residents haha. I am going to go as Robin Hood!. My name is also Robin so it should be pretty sweet xD
Not sure if it's legal or not but I will be "parking" my SUV in the ditch, replacing the windshield with a cracked one and sticking a fake body through it. I will also have a smoke machine, some artificial flames, and fake blood all over it.

Add NaDa to that list. Then everyone will be like, oh man, look at that guy's body.

I'm also going to wear my full iaido gear but I'm thinking of mixing in a cowboy theme. Make it a cowboy samurai. I'll call myself Biff... Biff Teriyaki.
I'm going as Garrus Vakarian, a bunch of my friends and I have made a bunch of Mass Effect outfits. We've got a Miranda, Grunt (that costume was fun to make), Thane, Jacob, Female Shepard, Liara, and Tali.
my roommate and i will be going as jesse and walter from breaking bad (ill be jesse)
we'll be wearing full yellow jumpsuits with hoods (s3? meth lab garments) and respirators/rubber gloves ill be dying my hair blonde/sporting a mustache and he will be wearing a bald cap and having a goatee.

I cannot wait.
Concidering buying full V outfit tomorrow. Will be like 100$ though but that's all included. I'm just not sure I can be arsed to wear a mask an entire night. I need to get something anyway, party's on for tomorrow night... Anyone have any "easy" ideas? I'm going to visit two local costume shops, they'll have a bit of everything.

So, I couldn't find overalls anywhere for some reason, not to mention a plain purple shirt and white gloves etc. I'll look for that shit over the next year so I can be waluigi next year (and fuck those premade 40-50$ costumes, they are gay). Rather buy the real shit and make it myself.
Like I did for this costume, which I am going as this year: (still need some weapons and some face damage makeup)
Plan A: Geoffrey Chaucer Junked because I couldn't make the robe work without looking like I was 400 pounds.
Plan B: Young Joseph Stalin Junked because I didn't want to buy the thing that he wears around his neck, and besides I basically dress like that already.
I'm broke as fuck and so I needed something cheap and simple. Last night while trying to brain storm, my Facebook feed popped up with a Hangover 2 poster and it instantly clicked.
Drawing that on my face and calling it a night. I'm always surprised with how lazy and cheap I can actually be -- while yet still meeting the criterion.
I am going as a zealot, protoss shirt, 2 pieces of cardboard coloured blue strapped to my wrists, and a nametage that says "hi I am a zealot." It wasnt last minute at all
Went with the cap and goggles. Used my regular brown shirt (a bit meh but it worked) and a pair of leather gloves to go with it. Going to another party tomorrow, I'm concidering switching it up completely with the cap & goggles and then a blue and purple suit, but I haven't checked it out in the mirror yet to see if it works.
I'm New England, and this early storm completely just shut Halloween down. Few-to-No trick or treaters. No power in my entire town, so no parties. No dicking around in school, because it's cancelled (also no power).

This sucks.
Same here, but my power came back on. A lot of my friends still do not have power. I still plan on collecting some candies when the sun goes down though.
I went as a bank robber. Black suit, white shirt, black tie, black gloves, rifle and a mask ofcourse.
People will mistake you for everything from terrorist to office employee gone postal.
We dont do shit for halloween in netherlands.
It has actually been taking off quite a bit in the last few years.
It still can't be expected that there will be a ton of kids coming by your house on the night itself (maybe a dozen or so last year for my house) but there are a good number of parties planned.
But since Halloween is on a monday (and close to exam time for Dutch students) most were in the weekend.

Have a labcoat? Sew on some hot peppers (super cheap) and go as Dr. Pepper. Stethoscope, nitrile gloves, crazy glasses, lots of extra accessories you can use if you have them.
Here's an easy one if you're Chinese or don't mind pretending to be:
Put a sign on your chest similar to that of Super Man's but instead of having an "S" the sign should have "TSB". Carry a pair of chopsticks (concealed or otherwise).
When asked who you are reply with "I am Antony by day, and Tap Sum Bong by night."
If you need clarification, search up Russell Peters.
i was really looking forward to dressing up this year.. however, i'm going to be starting up sessions with a personal trainer that i told needs to kick my ass.. so i'm going to be sufficiently dead tonight..
i expect some awesome costume pics tomorrow though!!!
As it turns out, I am going to shit around and go trick-or-treating in Palmdale. If you live in the high desert in California, then you know wtf I am talking about. And I'm a senior in high school, so I am going to be interested as to how people react when I ask for candy. + Show Spoiler +
If you don't live in the high desert, then Palmdale is a void that fat people are inexplicably drawn into. Along with teens who cause SWAT teams to put down riots at the high school (that I don't go to, fortunately), Afroman grew up here, and it's basically lil' mexican gangland 24/7. But, because everybody is fat, they give out the good candy. As in, the footlong snickers.
This isn't so much a costume (paying off loans) as much as it is an idea for Halloween.
Was watching my friend ladder and he asked his opponents "trick or treat?" If they answered trick, he rushed/all-ined them. If they said "treat", he let them macro. safely.

I don't have the ones with both of us yet, but here's one of just me as Quaildog from earlier.
I bought some socks, put one on each ear and filled one with newspapers and put that on my nose, BOOM insta-elephant!
To spice it up I am a bad-joke-telling Elephant: Why did the doctor worry about the zookeepers smoking habits? He was smoking a pack a derm. What did the Mafia look for when they were buying Elephants? Lots of trunk space.

Best, most awesome costume ever.
Yea, I've been doing that for like 10 years now.
Anyways, I saw A Clockwork Orange a couple days ago and I've already decided to put together a pimp ass costume for next year. Well come to think of it, knowing myself, it's prolly just gonna consist of the hat, the fake eyelash, and some crappily put on make up, but it's 100x better than looking like the other 200 guys at the club.
