Halloween is just around the corner. Some people might be excited to celebrate the day, while some others stay calm about it. What about you? Do you love the month of Halloween?

Celebrated on October 31, Halloween originated from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, where people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. In recent times, Halloween celebration typically includes more activities for fun such as trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins into jack-o’-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories, as well as watching horror films.

As the day is identical with people dolling up with eerie costumes and make-up, Jobiness would like to share with you some ideas of Halloween costume to wear at your office’s Halloween party. Are you ready to be the most “ghostly-person”? Here goes the list.

#1  Improvised sloth costume

This could be less scary but fun costume to wear. You can do little improvisation on the costume such as one eye sloth or cut nose cloth. Especially if you are customer service in the front desk, this costume will represent the sloth in Zootopia movie. Funny but scary…be sloth!

#2  Bellatrix Lestrange

Are you a fan of Harry Potter? You can get the thrill by becoming the wicked women in the movie. Dress up as Bellatrix Lestrange and don’t forget the wand.

#3  Dolores Umbridge

Another evil character of harry potter, Dolores Umbridge. Get your outfit and set rules around the office. After that, you can say, ‘Just a prank, guys!’

#4  Error 404

This is a simple costume for a simple person. If you don’t like to do some makeup, buy a t-shirt and write “Error 404 – bad costume not found”.

#5  iPhone costume

iPhone has gotten the most attention due to the high price tag. While it is expensive to buy the iPhone, it is not expensive to create the costume. You only need a t-shirt or a shirt and a construction paper to create a phone’s infamous camera lenses. Print out the icons and attach them using safety pins. Voila, now you are the iPhone!

#6  Dress imitating your favourite meme

Meme has been popular as it makes people laugh and can somehow reduce stress. If you want to get a better Halloween costume recommendation, maybe you can imitate your favourite meme and dress like the meme character.

#7  Filter Make-up (costume)

Technology like Instagram, Snapchat, or other photo-sharing apps is equipped with a filter such as the rainbow face, animal face, ghost face, or fancy face. Pick one you like most.

#8  Black or blank space 

Dress in either all white or all black. Thus, you can either be a blank space or black space. Boom, another Halloween costume idea.

#9  Ghostwriter

This costume is generated from a very simple ghost emoji you usually found in your smartphone keyboard. Find an old white bed sheet, cut holes for eyes, and carry a “death note” book with a pen.

#10  Food (candy) costume

Trick-or-treat is identical with candy or food. So, why not try it. Buy some candies or snacks, find a t-shirt, and attach those foods to your t-shirt using pins.
