Mens Halloween Costumes by Liza B
Halloween is a time for disguises and dress-up, and it is no different for men than for women. Men’s Halloween costumes are often overlooked despite the fact that half of the people dressing up for Halloween are men. True, a Halloween costume is only worn once a year, but here is a guide to Men’s Halloween costumes that will help you get the best costume possible out there this year.
Men’s Halloween costumes typically fall into one of three categories. The first is the “cool” costume. This is harder to pull off than you might think, yet people try all of the time. Mostly, people trying to be something or someone cool fail, because trying to be cool is, at its essence, an un-cool thing. Dressing up as a pirate or a mobster seems cool; until twenty other guys are dressed up as the same thing. I recommend not going the cool rout with men’s Halloween costumes, unless you can really pull it off.
The second category of Men’s Halloween costumes is scary. This is usually, actually, more cool than the cool costumes, especially if there is some effort to be put into it: fake blood, fake scares, creepy masks, etc. On the other hand, though, what starts out as cool and scary quickly becomes weird. People begin to wonder how much time is being spent on a Halloween costume, and for many of the scary ones, it is more time spent on creating the costume than on wearing it.
Personally, I prefer the third and final category of men’s Halloween costumes: funny. Now, funny backfires just as much as cool or scary; particularly with pun-based humor, but I applaud a guy for not taking himself too seriously. Also, try to stay away from grotesque and/or sexualized religious figures. I am sure you and your circle of friends may or may not find such stuff funny, but if there are people you do not know at the party, it does not make any sense to accidentally offend them.
All in all, there are a few different kinds of men’s Halloween costumes and choosing one over the other is a good place to start. Just keep in mind that what might be cool or scary or funny to you might not be to other people. Plan it out ahead of time and be considerate of others and your Halloween costume can probably help you have the most fun Halloween you have ever had.
