They did n’t have to poke fun us so heavily by labeling a Harley Quinn costume " Aging My Chemical Romance Fan . "
It’s officially spooky season, which means my favorite holiday is coming up: Halloween.
Why is it my favorite, you ask? Well, besides the candy and the parties and the black cats and the witchy vibes, I LOVE to dress up and probably attend at least four costume parties every year (see 2022’s costumes below).
I’ve been to my fair share of Halloween stores, and it always tickles me to find costumes that are so clearly supposed to be of some famous celebrity or movie/TV character, but for legal reasons, they have to change some small aspect or name the character something weird. So, without further ado, here are some of my favorite off-brand Halloween costumes.
1.Ah, yes, my favoriteHarry Pottercharacter, Potter Teacher Wizard Boy!
2.The name “Witch Hunter Gary” is kind of giving"Jack-O-Lantern Lewis."
3.Mom, can I be a pubescent frog this year for Halloween?
4."’80s Purple Musician" could be anyone, really.
5.I love the showUnusual Events!!!
6.For when you don’t want to be Ghostface for Halloween, but his weird cousin.
7.And here’s its lesser-known cousin, Ith!
8.“Trans Boy” is literally the last thing I expected a kid’s Halloween costume to be titled.
9.“Condescending online man” actual has great potential to be a funny Halloween costume, but I was not expecting aV for Vendettacostume.
10.Every little kid dreams of being a deceased hero for Halloween.
11.I had to include this one not just because they called Neo fromThe Matrix"cyber man," but because its dual purpose is actually kinda genius.
12.Commenters think this is a Lucy Pevensie (fromThe Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe) costume, but honestly, it seems like it’d work perfectly for all the little girls who dream of being a WWII evacuee!
13.To be fair, a stalker is a lot scarier and more real to most people than Slenderman.
14.I’m not sure I would vote for this Bernie Sanders.
15.You know what, I actually take issue with this one. Gomez is spooky, not creepy.
16.Honestly, Nintendo should’ve called the games Super Red Plumber Guy instead ofSuper Mario.
17.It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out why this was called “A-LAD-IN a costume.”
18.I mean, they’re not wrong that Katniss is a hungry rebel girl.
19.This off-brand samurai costume has the dual purpose of helping convert kids to Catholicism.
20.This costume description somehow roasted an entire generation.
21.And finally, this isn’t even necessarily off-brand, but I just love the naming on these.
