occasionally funny, always a mess


Halloween Costume Ideas

Hey there. It’s me again with a seemly useless post, but I’ve had this idea for over a year and I decided to go for it. I love finding costumes and planning out family outfits. My husband said that last year was the last year we could do a family costume, so I’m living vicariously through all of you. In this post you will find family ideas, couple ideas, singles ideas, mom and kids ideas, just kids ideas. I’ll include the links with each costume so that you can give credit to the OG creator of the costume idea (when I can).


Family Costumes:

Monsters Inc (example picture):
– Dad: Sully, Mom: Mike, Daughter: Boo
– Dad: Mike, Mom: Celia, Son: Sully

Flintstones (example picture):
– Dad: Fred, Mom: Wilma, Daughter: Pebbles
– Dad: Barney, Mom: Betty, Son: Bamm Bamm
– Dog: Dino

The Incredibles (example picture):
– Dad: Mr. Incredible, Mom: Elastagirl, Kids: the kids (everyone in their super-suits)

Inside Out (example picture):
– You’ll need: Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear & Disgust (you can choose who is who)


Couple Costume Ideas (this one was hard to narrow down because there are so many cute ones. I tried to only choose 2 per category):

Single Ideas (these are probably the easiest to come up with, but I tried to find the funniest ones that I could so that you had a fun idea for this year):

Funny Theme:
– Raining Men (example here)
– Third Wheel (example here)
– Darla from Finding Nemo (example here)
– Slice of Cheese (example here)
– Brawny Man (example here)


Kid Costume Ideas (these were so fun to come up with, I tried to include some for each age group. Some of these will work for just one kid, and some will work for a group of kiddos)

Disney Theme:
– Wilderness Explorer from UP (example here)
– Three Fairies or just one of them (example here)

Book Theme:
– If You Give a Mouse a Cookie (example here)
– Book Worm (example here)

Random Theme:

I hope that you have the most fun Halloween and that you take a million pictures because costumes take work. Make the memories and stuff your face with candy! Happy Halloween (almost).
