Halloween, as we know it, would be nothing without the costumes. However, coming up with an original look year after year (especially if you’re a dinosaur like me and were born in the last millennia) is not that easy.
So, to save your tushy in 2021 and give you some ideas, Bored Panda put together a list of some of the most brilliant Halloween outfits we’ve seen.
From Freddie Mercury Krueger to Post Malone, remember, it’s not how much money you spend that counts, rather, it’s the ability to think outside the box and the guts to try something new that will set you apart during the spooky celebration.
Heck, you can even copy your favorite costume from this list. Whatever. There are no rules! And if you need more inspiration, fire up our similar articles here, here, and here.

#6 My Wife
The last few years she’s cosplayed like male characters for Halloween and it’s hilarious to see her transform. Besides the vest ($20), everything was put together from things we had around the house. The cravat is the sash of a silk dress. The tie pin is a thumbtack. She’s sitting in front of a piece of art we have that we propped on the floor.
