Halloween is that one magical night of the year when you can be anyone, a vampire, a superhero, or a slice of pizza. But let’s be honest: not every costume idea deserves to see the light of a party. For every clever or creepy outfit out there, there are a dozen that belong in the “please never again” category.
This list of costume disasters is a cautionary tale for anyone who’s ever thought, “I can totally pull this off.” From superheroes that melted in the sun to couples’ costumes that should’ve stayed in the drafts, these are the looks you’ll want to avoid at all costs (unless you’re aiming for viral internet fame).
