15 of the scariest and funniest theoretical Halloween costume ideas
At the time of writing, there’s still one more day to come up with a Halloween costume – for those who indulge.
Will it be a sheet with eyeholes, like some kind of Scooby Doo villain? Perhaps it’ll be one of the thousands of ‘sexy’ outfits online, like a sexy traffic warden or a sexy barrister. An orange jumpsuit and facepaint, with a bad blond wig would almost be topical – but not that scary.
Some people have been going a little more theoretical with their costume ideas, so we’ve gathered the most terrifying and/or entertaining.
