Halloween is here, and with it, costume party Reached Now, we have already covered some of the most coveted of the year, viz Kpop Demon Hunteras well as Crazy superhero funAnd, of course, like the Titans of Terror terrible, But what about the totally weird?
Here are io9’s picks for weird and unusual but often hilarious Halloween costumes for 2025. Retailers took some familiar spooky season icons and gave them a spin that cleverly but confusingly goes from sexy to head-scratching to deadly funny to deep nightmare fuel. There’s a lot of room for a lot of questions, so if you go for one of our picks, you might just become the talk of the party.
Clothing for women
Spongebob Squarepants Patrick Star Catsuit Costume – Spirit Halloween: D Spongebob Squarepants The movie came out in 2004, but it gave us a Patrick meme that will never die; It’s really the gift that keeps slaying. The fishnet and boot dancing moment is oddly iconic and has no right to be this hard-hitting diva after all these years.
shrek Lord Farquaad Dress Costume – Spirit Halloween:This funny Lady Farquaad looks like a perfect fit throw Made me a believer. It’s just a rendition in the weirdest way possible… and it makes the wearer suddenly want to track down gingerbread men to torture.
the pearl “Killer Farmhouse Starlet” Premium Costume Set – Dollskill: she is one Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! We needed a skimpy the pearl Movie costume moment? It seems so random to pull from such a cult film but the folks at Dollskill really did it. Good luck trying to secure this costume; It’s already sold out. (Although, you can probably DIY your own version pretty easily.)
The Cat in the Hat Poncho – Spirit Halloween: Whimsical yet low effort doesn’t make sense to go together, but this is lazy cat in the hat The poncho easily pulls off that combination. You can make it look scarier with makeup prosthetics or draw some whiskers, but there’s always the agent of seusal chaos.
Clothing for men
The Emperor’s New Groove Cronk Costume – Spirit Halloween: Cronk can certainly pull the lever on this one The Emperor’s New Groove Costume based on Himbo the evil sidekick from the early 2000s Disney animated movie. It’s wild that a character took this long to join the Disney Villain Halloween lineup.
Full Moon Werewolf Costume – Spirit Halloween: Well, this is one way to arrange a werewolf transformation and be economical about how much fabric goes where. Booty shorts are a perfect touch and if you live in a climate where Halloween is hot, this might be for you.
the hill Paul Atreides – Spirit Halloween: A fixed suit it is not; Paul never would. It doesn’t even hold one’s water, maybe a layer of sweat that will be wasted. The Fremen would frown at this.
Friday the 13th: The Game Jason Voorhees Retro Costume – Spirit Halloween: Okay, we know it’s inspired by the game but if Jason chased me into it, I’d put on some disco music and expect to die on a dance floor.
Clothing for children
Kids Inflatable Sonic the Movie Shadow – HalloweenCostumes.com: Shadow as an inflatable with silly proportions and no fur intelligent but cursed appearance.
“Radioactive Shrimp Baby – Spirit Halloween: It might just be a shrimp outfit, but we think with some neon lights and a “Recall” sign, it could be a very timely look for a baby.
children Halloween Michael Myers Pick Me Up Costume – Spirit Halloween: The rise of the inflatable slasher that embraces the wearer as the victim needs to be documented. This Michael Myers is an illusion because your legs are his legs but you are clearly the victim. Chalk this one up to creative costume genius.
Kids Vampire Coffin 3D Costume: Another one that young people can have fun with, wearing a coffin as a dead from the plague and all that. This being specifically A kid’s costume is unconsciously serious but funny.
Clothing for pets
the monkey – HalloweenCostumes.com: The cat model for this outfit looks like it’s channeling the energy of Oz Perkins the monkey I think if the pet owner were dressed like one of the deranged toy victims or a blood-soaked Theo James, it would make it even more so.
Halloween Michael Myers Pet Costume – Spirit Halloween: Stop! We can’t with Michael Mayer’s mask beret. The look of it really works even though it doesn’t make sense for the character, who never takes off his mask. If a cute dog runs up to me dressed like that, consider me dead.
hello kitty Dog Clothes – PetSmart: It’s a dog dressed as a cat; Make sense of it. So yes, let your pet guess the identity of the most iconic cartoon cat with Sanrio-approved overalls and a headband.
Creatures from the Black Lagoon Gil-Human Dog & Cat Apparel-Amazon: The depth of this galaxy brain clothing runs deep. Do I ever think, “Hmm, I think I want to dress my dog ​​up like he rescued the creature from the Black Lagoon?” No, not at all but this dress makes me need Watching my dog ​​run around looking like he rescued the creature from the Black Lagoon.
really weird
Labubu – Kill the Dolls: Sexy lips were inevitable. And demand is high, as the Dollskill Popmart keychain inspired by the monster trend sold out at a wild drop.
Two Person Brownie Brontosaurus Costume – HalloweenCostumes.com: I feel so bad for whoever is behind the brownie brontosaurus. This dino duo outfit looks like a comedy bit, not to mention dangerous at a party – of course we’ll sit back and watch the chaos.
Yellow Brick Road – HalloweenCostumes.com: Well, it really tickles because the yellow brick road is the perfect add-on for one wicked The group costume is not the obvious Tin Man or Scarecrow. it is so for good Coded and you can stand between an Elphaba and Glinda to recreate the posters. Two witches, one road. Done and done.
Carry Me Ghost Face Kids Costume – HalloweenCostumes.com: His back is broken because it’s the weirdest of all the kids’ slasher costumes that look like Ghostface.
Action Hero Costumes for Dogs – HalloweenCostumes.com: In a world where danger lurks around every corner, there’s a dog ready to sniff it out and uncover it. Action hero dogs need their own movies. All dogs should have this outfit to guard their homes.
Disney The Muppets Statler And Waldorf Masks – HalloweenCostumes.com: Yes, I see The Muppets Statler and Waldorf out on their porches and walking around with monstrous big heads is the scariest thing we’ve ever seen. Can you imagine how they chase their prey while roasting them? Bonkers.
