50 Classic Halloween Costume Ideas


Family Halloween Costumes Wizard of Oz

It's time for my annual Classic Halloween Costume Ideas post! I've been sharing this post in one way or another for years now, but each time with updates and additions. This is the most comprehensive list yet.

I let my kiddos choose their own costumes, and to my classic costume loving heart's dismay, the days of them dressing like pumpkins or black cats or witches are definitely over. These days they want store bought character costumes, the end. This year, my daughter is going to be Mal from Descendants and my son a Minion for their school Halloween parties and other Halloween activities that aren't actually on Halloween. 

But on Halloween day, we're doing a family costume for the second year in a row (this is new for us as my husband is almost always on the road with the band on Halloween), and it's definitely more on the classic costume end of the spectrum, which brings me all sorts of irrational joy. Last year our family was the Wizard of Oz, as seen above. While this is still a character costume theme, it's still a classic. 

Scroll down for my updated list of 50 (!!) timeless costume ideas.
