The Addams Family
The Addams Family is a classic Halloween costume for a reason. It’s fun, spooky, and easy to do. You can dress up as Morticia, Gomez, Wednesday, Pugsley, or even Lurch. And the best part is, you can probably find most of the costume pieces in your closet already.
The Incredibles
The Incredibles is another great option for a family costume. It’s a fun and active costume that everyone will love. You can dress up as Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl, Violet, Dash, or even Jack-Jack. And you can easily find Incredibles costumes at any costume store.
Houston-Themed Costumes
If you’re looking for something a little more unique, you can dress up in a Houston-themed costume. For example, you could dress up as a space shuttle, a cowboy, or a Texan oil baron. You could even dress up as a Houston Texans football player or a Houston Astros baseball player.
Space Industry-Themed Costumes
Houston is home to the Johnson Space Center, so it’s only fitting to include some space industry-themed costume ideas:
- Astronauts: Dress up as astronauts in space suits, complete with helmets and oxygen tanks.
- Aliens: Dress up as aliens from different planets, with unique costumes and makeup.
- Rockets: Dress up as rockets, with cardboard tubes and paper fins.
- Space shuttles: Dress up as space shuttles, with cardboard wings and tailfins.
- Satellites: Dress up as satellites, with silver foil and cardboard balls.
No matter what you choose to dress up as, make sure to have fun and be creative. Halloween is a time to let your imagination run wild.
Newcomer Tip
If you’re a newcomer moving to Houston, be sure to check the weather forecast before you go trick-or-treating. Houston weather can be unpredictable, especially in the fall. You may want to dress in layers so that you can adjust to the changing temperature. And don’t forget to bring a flashlight, just in case.
Have a safe and happy Halloween!
