Press Release Summary: Top Ten Halloween Costumes

Press Release Body: Now here are the top halloween costumes I would love to see and
talk to (since the costumes' expenses here are totally worth the attention)! And I'm
not just talking about ordinary costumes, but group halloween costumes! It's true that group
costumes eat up a little more time, resources and coordination (think of the work it
takes to pull off the big one at your city's Idiotarod), but they're also a lot of
fun. If you're going to do some serious play-acting in a costume, do it with
friends!
1. Care Bears from the 80s cartoon show of the same name– let the kid in you (and in
others) relive the cure-all, do-all power of these band of plush cuties. Sometimes
even wearing matching pants and some decorated hoodies in pastel colors get the job
done.
2. A pair of ping-pong paddles and ball (3 persons) – Be the must-watch players of
the night (literally, AND in the good sense) by getting two of your buddies to stay
on opposite sides of the party hall. Show off by running up and down the room and
bouncing yourself against the paddles, dressed as a ball. End the pantomime by doing
a slow motion dive; the one paddle tries to reach out for you, only to miss by a few
inches. In the end, *insert favorite country here, wink wink* wins! If done the
right way, this can be one funny halloween costume.
3. Cirque du Soleil Characters – What I remember most out of Cirque is how they do
things that bend and strain the classic acts of the magicians we used to know. More
than just aiming for high-tech, European-looking attire, the key is in the facial
make-up, the parody of their famous acts, and hamming and miming it up with gusto.
4. Mario Brothers Characters – hands down, a favorite; especially if pictured,
running in mid-air. By the way, enemy Goombas are optional.
5. Pac-Man and Ghosts (shared by Alex) – Have fun mock-chasing each other in the
party. Here's a tip, try making the head of the ghost rounded at the top by draping
some free flowing cloth over an umbrella, and putting yourself under the umbrella.
6. Speak, Hear, and See No Evil Monkeys – I saw at Flickr a variation of this.
Instead of monkeys, the three party goers were in Star Wars Federation storm
troopers.
7. The Three Stooges or The Marx Brothers (with a sinister Halloween twist) – to do
it, try getting the Three Stooges to act as history's most inept Four Horsemen. Get
the fourth horseman from the ranks of the Marx brothers, etc. The same scheme goes
for the Marx brothers, unless you prefer Karl Marx to be the fourth horseman.
8. Norman Bates – dapper, doe-eyed, a “bit” Psycho ... and on the run from a very,
very angry “Mother”! Try coming as a group of 5 wearing turtleneck shirts marked the
1st, the 2nd, etc. The fifth can be a buddy (you got that right, Mother is way
cooler if she's a he) wearing the Mother disguise: styled hairdo-wig with wisps of
white hair, fading long-sleeved blouse and skirt, owlish glasses, some pearl
necklace or bracelet if you will, low pumps, and the kitchen knife, lastly. It's
also cool if Mother gets around using a walker.
9. Sadako – Sadakos, bloodthirsty Sadakos, lots and lots of the hit 1998 Japanese
film's Sadakos! How come I don't see this often in Halloween parties? Why, all
that's needed are some wig (if you don't have extra-long hair), a long sleeping
shirt, and some shocker face waiting under that mat of hair. Props? A teddy bear and
a large TV frame to act through.
10. How about viral videos, like the unforgettable Internet sensation of the Dancing
Inmates? The rest of the list is up to you! Find more halloween costume ideas here!
