Halloween comes and goes in a flash but there are just some people who dress up so bad that I’m thankful the web keeps an archive. I’ve scoured the Internet looking for the worst of the worst, and it didn’t take me long to discover that some people need serious costume help. Halloween is still a handful of months away but this should hopefully remind everyone what not to do next time.

Some of the costumes are down right wrong, and others left me thinking how could they have left the house looking like that. Halloween Costumes are all in good fun so I will admit that I personally put a picture of myself on this list, but I won’t say which picture is mine. I love a bad costume as much as a great one, so if you think you have these pictures beat, feel free to send us a picture and we’ll put it on the blog.

#1

Legolas from the infamous Lord of the Rings movie could get away with wearing a cape back in those mystical times, but I don’t know about nowadays. It definitely takes guts for a grown man to wear this out on Halloween.

#2

Santa Clause wouldn’t approve of this guy’s attempt at making good ol Saint Nick look scary. I can tell you this, I would never let my children near this guy!

#3

Well believe it or not but this is supposed to be Magnum PI but I don’t remember him having such a lousy mustache! At least he’s got the Magnum chest hair down pat, now if I could only figure out if he showed up to the party in a Ferrari.

#4

Some folks set out to either intrigue or repulse the opposite sex with their Halloween Costume, and this guy is definitely going home alone. If this guy were actually in the WWE, then his wrestler name could be “Holey Spandex”.

#5

Richard Simmons is always one to entertain people, even if it’s not actually him and some weirdo dressed up even more fabulous! This bloke gets an A+ for effort even if his spandex pants were WAY too tight!

#6

I don’t even know where to begin with this guy. I really like what he’s done with his facial makeup, and even the hands look top notch. I think this costume went downhill when he decided to sport silk pink granny panties to match the pink jumpsuit.

#7

Tron is one of my all time favorite movies, I’m excited for the sequel and I’m actually kind of jealous of this guy’s costume. Although this was a pretty creative attempt at recreating the movie costume, I still can’t help but LOLing every time I see this picture.

#8

Don’t drink and costume folks….I let this non Halloween one slip in here because this costume is just plain cringe worthy.

#9

Star Wars costumes have never died off in popularity and I’ve seen my fair share of them over the years. This attempt at C3PO would make George Lucas shed a tear that even the likes of Jar Jar Binks couldn’t do. I personally think that it’s so bad it’s good.

#10

This was so distasteful it just had to make the list. Some people think it’s hilarious to go way overboard this their costumes and this guy makes that apparent. I’ve got 10 bucks that says he got his butt kicked that night.

#11

I don’t even know what to say about this one other than FAIL!

#12

Another classic case of a grown man rockin a costume that should have stayed in his little brothers closet. I don’t think a children around the world would have been watching Pikachu if he had smoked…oh and one more thing. Put a shirt on dude!

#13

This guy brings new meaning to the name Ugly Betty. I applaud his efforts but this picture is going to haunt him for the rest of his life. I’ll give him points for resembling the tv show character though because I don’t watch it but I could make out what he was getting across.

#14

I’m not sure who’s more excited in this picture? The guy who finally gets to dress like a woman in public, or his buddy who has perhaps had too much to drink and can’t tell the difference! Either that, or this is a commercial for a new beer geared at college students across the nation.

#15

No I heard a few people doing costumes like this which is utterly disrespectful. These folks were most likely were never heard from again after wearing this out in public.

#16

Sarah Palin costumes were very popular this year and I got a kick out of all the ladies who did an excellent job, and then I saw this picture.

#17

It doesn’t take long to figure out that this guy got his entire costume from the dollar store! I’ll give this guy some credit, he put more effort into his costume than I did last year.

#18

These two clearly started drinking before they made their costumes. I just hope that the Evil Clown Cop(?) is able to keep his green spandex on properly for the rest of the night.

#19

I’m not even sure what I can say about this costume attempt…some sort of sad cat who’s addicted to cough medicine costume? I would have guessed John Candy from Spaceballs but that was a dog, so I’m speechless.

#20

This is the kind of costume you envision on a bad mushroom trip, sadly this isn’t a hallucination, and yes he is wearing a diaper.
