Agreed Halloween is not an Indian celebration, yet, these days we do see a few Halloween parties happening around us. Many hotels host Halloween parties and private spook parties are also common. While attending a Halloween party, one often faces a dilemma as to what character to dress up as. Some same old characters people dress up as are Harley Quinn, The Joker or Dracula, which have become really boring. Here are some stand-out yet easily accessible ideas you can try this Halloween.

For Men

Patrick Bateman’s Bloody face: At the end of a hard working day we often feel a little bit like Christian Bale in American Psycho. Killing people is not an option, but you can surely dress up like Patrick Bateman. You can wear your old corporate suit and splash a little red paint or even use fake blood available on Amazon, on your face and put on a transparent raincoat (optional). And there you go, you’ve a classic killer look now.

Vecna/001/Henry: Jamie Bower got our attention in Stranger Things Season 4 even though he played the bad guy. All you need to look like Henry/001 is to put on a white shirt and a pair of white pants and spatter a few drops of red paint all over your shirt and face and that’s it. You’ll look like the king of the Upside Down.

Damon Salvatore: Two years of lockdown and the free time gave us a chance to explore The Vampire Diaries or relive our favourite teenage vampire series, and the gorgeous vampires in it. Damon Salvatore haunts every girl’s dream, but in a good way! So this Halloween dress up like the most handsome vampire ever and not the regular Dracula. All you need to wear is a black Henley T-shirt or a black leather jacket paired with a black T-shirt. Not sure if girls will forget the real Damon Salvatore.

For Women

Broken nose from Fleabag: We all loved Phoebe Waller Bridge’s boyish yet enigmatic looks from Fleabag. For this look what you need is a black jumpsuit which mostly all you women have in your wardrobe and apply red paint on and around your nose to give the dripping blood from a broken nose vibe and a simple no-makeup look.

The bride look from Ready or Not: When Samara Weaving sighed and exclaimed “in-laws!” after a rough night with her newly-wedded family, we all felt her. To recreate this look all you need to wear is a white lace dress and team it with a pair of Converse and do a messy hair look. You don’t even need a veil to look like a bride.

Sharon Stone from Basic Instinct: The sexiest female villain in Hollywood’s history, Catherine Tramell still makes our jaw drop on the floor. Just put on a white turtleneck dress and a slick back-brushed hair and you’ve got the look!
