Halloween costume ideas

Unread post by selby »

At the company I work at they do serious halloween fancy dress party, so I need some ideas?

Last year someone did an amazing teen wolf and Papa Lazarou so I can't repeat those, I was thinking Captain Spaulding but I can't get a costume anywhere.

I know you lot are a creative and cruel bunch so I'm expecting some good ideas.

But I would love a cheeky little AP10, AP20 sort of amp for a bedroom setup...

I once combined a Saudi robe with an army jacket, fake beard and a toy machine gun and my Osama bin Laden outfit was a huge success. The Saturday night train ride to my friend's party in Sunderland was interesting in that get up.

Another time I made full KISS armour from some cardboard boxes and a can of silver spray paint and went as Gene Simmons. Strangely I got a lot of female attention that night. A studded codpiece has that effect on the ladies.

Research the "Mighty Boosh" for a wealth of back-of-the-wardrobe-face-paint-and-a-little-diy easily copied halloween foolery.
That , funky tunes and a very funny script is the essential modus of the entire show.
Eg. "Old Greg" or "the Hitcher"
Technic SL-P1200ASC>>SSP>>P50sa>>SSP>>A80>>LS6>>Royd Prior>>> and on the whole very pleased about it.

I was thinking about Old Greg or the Hitcher, it's finding all the bits needed.
