Make this year’s Halloween special and unique with your best friends! Whether you’re going trick-or-treating or attending a party, dressing up for Halloween can be so much fun, especially when you’re doing it with people you enjoy spending time with. Of course, you guys can have your own different costume concepts, but a group Halloween costume just makes it more silly, memorable, and an attention-grabber.
With a few friends, a little coordination, and creativity, you’re ready for the Best Costume Award. I’m pretty sure people will be staring at your crew in awe and envy while you guys walk together, all looking like zombies or Avengers members.
If you’re thinking of what to wear, here is a list of group Halloween costume ideas your squad has to try! With your fun costume concept, take a pose with the squad, post it on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter and trust me, everyone will be calling you #SquadGhouls.
1. Toy Story
For kids or nostalgic adults, you can never go wrong with a Toy Story group costume. The movie series portrays how friendship should look like! Anyway, with Toy Story 4 becoming a hit, there might be a lot of ‘Forky’ this Halloween so you may skip that one.
2. Zombies
Come on, we all know Halloween is all about the concept ‘horrifying’ or ‘scary’. So if your squad wishes to scare the living daylights out of people, dressing up as a frightening zombie could do the trick. Along with a group of friends, it will seem like you guys are in a zombie apocalypse. Here’s a tip, you can turn old clothing into a great zombie costume just by ripping it and putting fake blood --a lot of it. Make it perfect with detailed scary make-up, too!
3. Harry Potter
Chances are, you already have fake Harry Potter glasses or striped Gryffindor scarf if you are a hardcore fan of the series. Halloween is the best occasion to make your dreams come true and become students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry even just for a night. Now, go find your black cloak, wand and practice spells with your friends. Wingardium Leviosa (to levitate things)!
4. Riverdale
Have you been binge-watching Riverdale in the past few days? Then, why not become characters of your favorite Netflix series this Halloween? Make you cover the basic characters such as Archie, Veronica, Jughead, Betty, Cheryl, and Josie. Don’t miss each of their signature items: Archie’s Letterman jacket, Cheryl's crimson red lip, Veronica's pearl necklace, Jughead's Southside Serpents jacket, and Betty's ponytail.
5. Disney Villains
They may be evil, but Disney villain costumes are to die for! If you want to look intimidating, badass and fierce yet classy, check out the closet of characters like Maleficent, Cruella De Vil, Jafar, Hades, Ursula, and much more. Your squad will seriously look cool as villains of the night! Also, plus point if Cruella brings a cute Dalmatian with her.
6. Avengers
If you don’t want to be the bad guys and would prefer saving the world from villains, dress up like your favorite do-gooders, the Avengers. As the movie series, this group costume is legendary. The real Avengers have said goodbye, but you and your friends can continue the legacy and become the new and ultimate hero squad.
7. Scooby-Doo
Do you think this gang represents your squad the best? For Scooby-Doo group costume, aside from Scooby’s (dog costume), the rest of the characters’ outfits are simple and might just be available in your mom’s closet or thrift shops. Now, get your costume ready and solve mysteries like Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and of course, Scooby.
8. Three Little Pigs
Funny group costumes are also ideal for Halloween! Look funny and cute at the same time with your friends by dressing up as the Three Little Pigs.
I know, it’s difficult to decide among all these amazing group costume ideas but you’ll definitely find the best fit for your squad. Have fun this Halloween and creep it real! See what I did there? *wink*
