When it comes to Halloween, TV becomes our greatest source of inspiration for costume and makeup. But it’s the girls who tend to take away most of the attention with their on-point costumes and spooky makeup, so much so that they overshadow the boys. We’re about to change that and throw some light on Halloween ideas for men because—why should girls have all the fun, right?
 

Ralph | Wreck It Ralph

Ralph | Wreck It Ralph

First things first, Halloween isn’t just about the supernatural creatures and the spooky makeup—you could dress up like your favourite TV show and cartoon characters too, like Ralph from Wreck It Ralph

What to wear: An orange t-shirt, red overalls with one strap undone and spiked hair.

 

Admiral General Aladeen | The Dictator

Admiral General Aladeen | The Dictator

You thought the movie The Dictator was hilarious—why not dress up like Admiral General Aladeen this Halloween? It’s an easy look to pull off with props that say ‘Aladeen’ for yes and and ‘Aladeen’ for no.

What to wear: A military coat with epaulettes and badges, an exaggerated faux beard and black sunglasses.

 

Mitchell Pratt | Modern Family

Mitchell Pratt | Modern Family

You ought to admit—Mitch and Cam are the cutest couple on television. It’d be great if you had a friend to pair costumes with, but it’s alright to go solo and dress up all pretty and preppy like Mitch.

What to wear: A plaid shirt and a striped cardigan (buttoned up), a contrasting tie or bowtie, skinny pants, black oxfords.

 

Uncle Fester | The Addams Family

Uncle Fester | The Addams Family

The Addams Family was probably one of your favourite shows as a kid, so no reason you can’t channel your inner Uncle Fester now that you’re all grown up.

What to wear: A brown trench coat or a long cape with a collar, black t-shirt and black pants underneath, with exaggerated black eye makeup.

 

Abraham Lincoln | Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Abraham Lincoln | Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

While you probably secretly admire the Salvatore brothers’ dressing style, there’s nothing Halloween about them. But Abraham Lincoln, the vampire hunter, is another thing altogether.

What to wear: A black trench coat, a grey/black vest, a white/pale green shirt, a dark hued cravat and top the look with the highest top hat and an axe.

 

R | Warm Bodies

R | Warm Bodies

If you own too many hoodies that you’d like to turn into a Halloween costume, then R of Warm Bodies is who you want to dress up as.

What to wear: A tattered grey t-shirt, a red zippered hoodie, faded blue jeans. Wear light blue lens and smudge your eyes with some reddish brown eyeshadow.
