Halloween is undoubtedly one of the most popular festivities in the US, and it’s the one where the 'The more, the merrier' rule works out perfectly. If you think that dressing yourself alone in a Halloween costume is fun, then try it together with your whole family.
We’ve witnessed some fantastic cosplay ideas before, but nothing can top the efforts of a whole family working together to pull off a single-family costume idea.
So we here at Bored Panda have decided to track down the best examples of these Halloween costume ideas turned into family projects. From bringing the Simpsons to life to recreating quite a bit less family-friendly characters like the ones from Game of Thrones, these family Halloween costumes aren't only exciting for the viewers but are also a fun way to get a family together.
Now, scroll down for our picks of the best Halloween costumes below. If you’ve also done a similar family project, share your best cosplays in the comments section!

That's actually how they do a lot of movies. Shots from a distance that involve supposedly huge places or giant creatures will use children dressed to look like older characters.

Halloween costumes are a wonderful way to express creativity and bring families closer together. For those looking to add an artistic flair to their costumes, exploring different makeup techniques can be incredibly beneficial.
Delving into skull symbolism and other intricate designs by makeup artists can provide inspiration for unique and standout Halloween looks.

Extra points for the homemade costumes! Christmas 2017; there was a village fete near my parents place, with a fancy dress costume. Literally all the boys were literally in store bought marvel costumes and a lot of the girls were Disney princesses. I know it's what the kids want, it's just a shame, and expensive probably.
Mandy Delaforce (PC Girl) 8 years ago
There are 4 different types here. :) "I bought them all", "I made them all", "Its all about the parents and hiw good we look" and "its all about the kids and were just here to keep them safe". Obviously there are mixtures and they all look great, but I prefer the home made "its about the kids" costumes.
