Halloween is when movie magic spills into real life — a night to channel your favourite characters, villains, and icons. Whether it’s horror legends like Jason Voorhees and Ghost Face or scene-stealers like Barbie, Harley Quinn, and Beetlejuice, every Halloween costume tells a story.
At Fun Place, those stories come to life with movie character Halloween costumes, wigs, masks, makeup kits and accessories that make transformation effortless.
Ghost Face – The Mask That Defined a Genre (Scream)
A ringing phone. A whisper. Then the scream. Since Scream first hit cinemas in the ’90s, Ghost Face has carved a permanent place in horror history. The black robe, hood and signature Ghost Face mask are minimalist, but the impact is chilling.
Ghost Face remains a top Halloween costume because it represents pure, stripped-down fear. Easy to wear and instantly recognisable, this Scream costume is a true slasher icon that sets the scene for jump scares and horror nostalgia.

Jason Voorhees – Silence That Screams (Friday the 13th)
Jason Voorhees doesn’t need words to terrify. Emerging from the chilling woods of Friday the 13th, his hockey mask and dark, rugged outfit are among the most powerful visuals in horror cinema.
Jason is a lasting Halloween icon because he represents the golden age of slasher films. This Friday the 13th costume is easy to pull together — jacket, dark trousers, machete prop and, of course, the Jason Voorhees mask — but the legacy behind it is legendary.
Pair Jason with Ghost Face or Pennywise for a slasher crew that dominates the night.

Pennywise – The Clown That Owns the Fear (IT)
Pennywise doesn’t just scare — he lingers. With his ruffled Victorian-style clown costume, bright orange wig, and iconic red balloon, the IT villain is pure nightmare fuel.
Pennywise endures because he taps into something primal — childhood fear wrapped in carnival colour. It’s unsettling and playful all at once, making it one of the best Halloween costumes for a truly spine-chilling look.

Michael Myers – The Shape of Fear (Halloween)
Before jump scares and CGI gore, there was Michael Myers — the silent figure in a mechanic’s jumpsuit and blank white mask who turned Halloween into a genre-defining classic. His stillness is what makes him terrifying.
This costume is iconic because it’s unsettlingly simple. One mask, one jumpsuit — and that slow, steady walk. It’s a look recognised instantly by horror fans everywhere and remains one of the most chilling Halloween costumes decades later.

Chucky – Playtime Just Got Dark (Child’s Play)
Chucky remains a Halloween favourite because he blends the uncanny and the absurd. He’s the killer doll with a foul mouth and a sharper knife — the one who made an entire generation rethink their toys. Since Child’s Play first hit cinemas, that striped jumper, overalls, and fiery red hair have become horror hallmarks that everyone recognises.
The Chucky Halloween costume works because it delivers big scares with a playful twist. It’s unsettling, iconic, and perfect for anyone who loves their horror with a side of chaos.

Freddy Krueger – The Nightmare That Never Sleeps
When it comes to horror legends, Freddy Krueger is the stuff of nightmares — literally. With his burnt face, striped jumper, fedora hat, and razor glove, the A Nightmare on Elm Street villain changed the way we think about sleep forever. He’s not hiding in the shadows; he’s waiting in your dreams.
The Freddy Krueger Halloween costume captures everything that made him terrifying on screen — eerie, unsettling, and dripping with classic slasher energy. With just a few signature pieces, you can bring the nightmare to life on Halloween night.

Beetlejuice – Say His Name
Some characters whisper. Beetlejuice crashes in, uninvited. Tim Burton’s chaotic creation has been a Halloween staple for decades, and his wild striped suit, green hair, and manic personality make for a look that owns the room.
The Beetlejuice Halloween costume works because it hits that sweet spot between creepy and funny. Whether you’re going solo as Beetlejuice or pairing with Lydia for a gothic duo, this look brings theatre and nostalgia together perfectly.

Grim Reaper – The Classic That Always Wins
Some Halloween costumes rise and fall with trends. The Grim Reaper never leaves. Hooded cloak, skeletal gloves, and a scythe — the look hasn’t changed because it doesn’t need to.
While not tied to one specific movie, the Reaper has been a cinematic constant — from old black-and-white horror films to modern blockbusters. It’s the simplest way to make an entrance that gets noticed.

Joker & Harley Quinn – Beautiful Chaos That Lasts
There’s a reason Joker and Harley Quinn are Halloween regulars — they’re loud, theatrical, and impossible to ignore. Harley’s pigtails, bold makeup, and cheeky grin meet Joker’s wild green hair and sinister smile in a costume duo built for chaos.
This pairing has endured because it’s not just about appearance — it’s about owning a vibe. Harley brings playful rebellion, Joker brings unhinged energy, and together they’re one of the most expressive couples costumes out there.

Barbie & Ken – Pop Culture Royalty
Some costumes ride a trend. Barbie is the trend. After conquering the box office, Barbie and Ken became the face of playful, nostalgic glamour. Barbie Halloween costumes are all about pink energy, sparkle, and confidence.
Barbie works because she’s not just a character — she’s a cultural mood. Whether you’re going for Cowgirl Barbie, Roller Barbie, or full-on disco glam, the look is fun, bright, and instantly joyful. And when paired with Ken, it’s an easy couples costume that gets attention without needing explanation.

The Addams Family – Gothic Elegance Never Dies
The Addams Family has been setting the Halloween aesthetic for generations. Morticia’s elegance, Wednesday’s deadpan stare, and Gomez’s old-world charm make these characters timeless icons.
The resurgence of Wednesday has only made these costumes more popular. It’s the perfect theme for families or groups, blending humour, style, and just the right amount of creep. These looks work because they’re as fashionable as they are spooky.

Cruella – Villainy Meets Runway
Cruella De Vil doesn’t creep — she commands. Her black-and-white wig, bold red lipstick, and faux fur coat make the Cruella Halloween costume a fashion-forward villain look.
This costume works because it’s wickedly stylish and instantly recognisable — ideal for solo looks or group themes.

Pirates of the Caribbean – Swagger Meets Adventure
Pirates have always been cool, but Pirates of the Caribbean made them iconic. Jack Sparrow’s tricorn hat, beads, long coat, and cheeky smirk turned the pirate costume into a Halloween classic.
A Jack Sparrow Halloween costume is pure swagger. Perfect for solo looks or assembling a crew of buccaneers.

Ghostbusters – Nostalgia Meets Squad Goals
Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters isn’t just a costume — it’s an entire mood. Those khaki jumpsuits and proton packs carry a nostalgia that instantly brings people together.
This is one of the best group Halloween costumes, perfect for friends, families, or even office parties. It’s comfortable, clever, and a nod to one of the most beloved film franchises ever made.
