5. Video Game Characters
If you’re a video gamer, then you should dress up as your favorite video game characters. I mean, there are a LOT of video game characters. Here’s a crazy DIY Halloween Costume: A Sims costume! It is an easy choice if you’re a fan of the Sims computer game. You can create a Sims headband with the diamond-shaped mood indication on it with just a few basic components. The Sims characters in the game walk around with diamond-shaped mood indicators over their heads that represent their emotional and physical well-being, needs, and mental states. You can still be in costume while wearing your own clothes if you make one for yourself. Or if you want to make an effort, then you can be a Mobile Legend Hero! You can be Layla, Esmeralda, Miya, Alucard, Clint or the minions! You can also be the turret if you want to!
6. Filipino Mythical Creatures
Another fun Halloween costume idea! If you’re into classics, then dress up as a Filipino Mythical Creature! There are a lot of mythical creatures with interesting stories. You can dress up as a Diwata. Diwata is a goddess of Philippine folklore. Diwatas are spirits that are in charge of the many elements of nature, such as water and air, and grants blessings to its inhabitants. Take note of that, you might need to explain your costumes to your friends. To achieve the Diwata look, all you’ll need is a flowing dress or top and skirt, as well as simple, natural-themed accessories like a flower you may pin in your hair.
Another insteresting mythical monster but this one engages in dark magic and they are famously known as the “mangkukulam”. You may dress up as a contemporary mangkukulam in any attire, but to be authentic to the concept, we suggest digging out your old Buwan ng Wika outfits. The more worn out they are, the better. Use foundation that is one or two shades lighter than your natural skin tone, then create wrinkles on your face with an eyeliner or eyebrow pencil. To turn your hair grey, lightly dust it with flour or baby powder. Bring a doll and a needle to finish off your appearance.
You can also be the iconic Multo or white lady. It is regarded by Filipinos as a ghost with unfinished business in the physical realm. She is one of the most well-known legendary beings in the Philippines since so many individuals have said they have seen or encountered her. All you need is a white dress, of course, preferably one that you are planning to discard so you can add smudges of “dirt” to it with brown and black makeup. Add some red food coloring to make “blood stains” by drizzling or splashing it on. Use some eyeshadow for your fake eyebags. Then you’re good to go! If you’re an introverted person who doesn’t like to talk much then this costume might be perfect for you because of course, it is expected that no one will come close to you during the party. They might be scared of you. If it’ll happen, then that’s a mission accomplish for you. For Halloween, you might dress up as one of the spooky monsters or creatures that exist in the Philippines. These creatures are entertaining and unique from the typical cowboy, vampire, and skeleton costumes you typically see at Halloween gatherings each year. The best part is that achieving these looks won’t require you to put in a lot of work, money, or time.
