50 Halloween Costumes To Get You Inspired For The Spooky Season, As Shared By Our Community
Interview With Artist
Despite the fact that Halloween has been celebrated for almost 2,000 years, the costumes we are accustomed to today have only been around for about 100 years.
Children of various ages dress as vampires, witches, and devils at the end of October, while adults from all over the world join in with a wide variety of fancy dress outfits.
I asked our Pandas to share with us what their Halloween costumes will look like this year, or how they looked like last year, and they sure delivered!

Jeff The Killer Using A Different Wig And Still Figuring Out The Makeup
Final score:

Nicole Tomme 3 years ago
Maybe a less burgundy shade? More red, maybe? Not a Jeff the Killer fan or makeup artist (just a regular artist haha) but the burgundy makes it look a little too much like you put lipstick on and someone slammed the brakes. No hate just a suggestion. The mouth shape looks good, though. Love the eye makeup. With a long wig you could also use the makeup to be the slit mouth woman from Japanese folklore. Or go in a trio and your third be joker. All big grins!

I'm gonna be Coraline but the costume is Not ready yet and I feel uncomfortable posting a pic of myself online.

I’m going to be Eleven from Stranger Things. I picked out her yellow outfit from season 3 so I can do the makeup for the wound on her leg.
