10 Halloween Costumes That Are Perfect For Groups

Whether you’re attending an adult party or getting ready to trick or treat with the kids, group Halloween costumes can make or break the event.

Celebrating Halloween with your squad is one of the most enjoyable parts of autumn.

To help get your wheels turning, here are ten Halloween costumes that will make your group the life of the party:

1. Super Friends

With the recent popularity of movies like Justice League and The Avengers, this is an easy group costume to create. You have a plethora of characters from which to choose, not to mention this theme can handle any size group. You can easily go the DIY route or find high-quality versions of your favorite heroes online.

2. Toy Story

The four movies that make up the Toy Story franchise are a hit among kids and adults alike. There are plenty of options for any size group, and people get to be creative in deciding which toys they want to be: Barbie, Mr. Potato Head, a Cowboy, etc. can all be part of the fun.

3. Zombies

A good group of zombies will never go out of style. You can add a little pizzazz to this group theme by throwing in characters from zombie movies or TV shows like Shaun of the Dead or The Walking Dead. Best yet, there are tons of ways to make the costume at home with minimal makeup skills.

4. Ghostbuster

With the release of Ghostbusters: Afterlife coming this December, it’s the perfect time to bring back this classic group Halloween costume. The men and women in your group have characters they can emulate, not to mention a plethora of ghost options.

5. Space Jam

Another way to keep your group costume modern is to go as the characters from Space Jam. This costume could be as simple as getting basketball jerseys that say “Tube Squad.” Of course, your squad could also divide and have some people go as the alien opponents for extra fun.

6. The Office

If you’re preparing for a part at the office, why not have your team go as characters from the hit TV show, The Office? The costumes are relatively easy to create since the characters were typically dressed in regular business clothes. The hard part will be deciding which manager will lead the group: Michael, Andy, Dwight, etc.

7. Jurassic Park

If you love dinosaurs, a Jurassic Park group costume might be for you. Some of your group can go as characters from the movies or even just generic naturalists. The rest can get creative by becoming their favorite dinosaurs. If nothing else, grab a couple of the inflatable T-Rex costumes online and go have a blast.

8. Star Wars

You’ll never be out of place if your group takes on the identity of Star Wars. There are endless character options from which to choose across three trilogies and Disney+ shows. There are plenty of costumes and accessories available online; you can easily make your own. The hard part will be deciding who’s baby gets to be baby Yoda.

9. Where’s Waldo

Are you looking for a simple costume that will create some nostalgic laughs? Pick one person in your group to dress up as Waldo. Grab a white shirt and some red felt (for the stripes) with some round glasses, and you’re set. Everyone else can dress however they want, with bonus points for outfits that could be confused for Waldo. Spend the night standing in a group to see if anyone can find your friend.

10. Mean Girls

While this group costume may be more for the ladies, it can still be tons of fun. The best part: Halloween doesn’t have to fall on a Wednesday to wear pink this year. A quick trip to the used clothing store or a few minutes in your closet should be enough to pull off the right look to be completely fetch.
