Deciding on a Halloween costume can be a big decision. First of all, you need to decide on whether you’re opting for a group Halloween costume or if you’re doing a solo operation. If you’re looking for a group costume idea, then why not make it a family affair? Go for cute Halloween costumes this year and get parents and kids coordinated for your best Halloween fancy dress ensemble yet.

Now you’ve decided on matching Halloween costumes, you still need to choose the costumes! This is where we come in. To bring you some inspiration, we’ve rounded up our favourite family Halloween costumes… Happy Howl-oween!

Scary Halloween Costumes

Put the spooky back in Spooky Season this year with a scary costume theme. You know what they say, if you’ve got it, haunt it! Let’s start with a good one… 
Do you know what is scarier than Pennywise (the creepy clown from It? A whole family of Pennywise. Take inspiration from the dancing clown and clad the family in the haunting grey ruffled look.

 

Our scary clown costume range has something for the whole family! Our women’s Pennywise costume with a bubble skirt and grey tights is perfect for mum and dad can go for the licensed men’s Pennywise clown costume. The kids can join in on the creepy with our Pennywise style dress or top and trousers, not forgetting baby who also has a little killer clown costume!

Get more inspiration for scary Halloween costumes from the movies here. Zombies are always going to be scary and you can pretty much make any costume zombified with the right make-up and a little braaaaaain power. Got a pirate costume lying around? Zombify it. Police outfits? Zombify. Old athletics kits? Zombify them. You get the idea. The zombie Halloween costume theme works really well for a group costume as you don’t have to all be wearing the same thing. Plus, zombies are usually in packs. 

Easy Halloween Costumes

Sometimes, in order to pull off the perfect family costume look, you have to keep it simple. May we suggest skeletons? The Halloween costume equivalent to stripping it all back (get it?). Our range of skeleton costumes for men, women, girls and boys makes group costume planning bone-afidely easy!

Masks are another great option for simple Halloween costumes and last-minute Halloween costumes. From lifelike animal masks and celebrities to TV characters and scary Halloween masks, we have a wide range of mask options. This Halloween costume idea works well with the group dressed all in black for added effect.

Harry Potter Costumes

You don’t need Wingardium Leviosa to raise your family’s Halloween costume game. Although, it wouldn’t hurt! Transport your family to the Wizarding World this Halloween with Harry Potter film-inspired costumes.

Our officially licensed Harry Potter outfits have great options for adults and kids. Adults can be part of the Hogwarts’ student community in house robes or command a little more authority as Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore, Hagrid or He-who-Must-Not-Be-Named… Voldemort! Kids can choose to be part of their favourite House in Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff robes. There’s even something for the little ones, dress your baby or toddler as an adorable Dobby or Hedwig!

Halloween Witch Costumes

Dress your coven to impress this Halloween by getting your witch on! Whether you’re going for more of a Hocus Pocus thing, or a Sabrina the Teenage Witch thing, we’ve got witchy outfits for the whole family coven. This is a witch and warlock-friendly family Halloween costume idea, as long as everyone has their pointy hat on and keeps dark spells to a minimum! 

Our witch Halloween costume range has something for everyone, from the littlest witch to the wickedest witch. Choose fishnet stockings or stripy tights, broomsticks or black wigs, short dresses or long robes… Witch, please, it all spells trouble this Halloween! 

We hope you’ve managed to get some inspiration from our family-friendly Halloween costume ideas. At the end of the day, Halloween is all about enjoying yourself because... Ghouls just want to have fun! Whatever you wear, we’re sure it will be fa-boo-lous! We’re sorry about the puns but we’re just trying to creep it real...
