Attention, gentlemen! Spooky Season is officially upon us. And with the festivities comes that crucial yearly decision of — settling on a Halloween costume. 

It can be tough to narrow down one look, since there are so many iconic options to choose from.  

Only problem is, when you’re scouring the internet for unique Halloween costume ideas, it seems like every other listicle shows the exact same set of monsters — we’re looking at you, Pennywise and Scream. If you want to switch it up with a look that’s more creative, trendy, and dare I say dapper… fear not — we’ve got you covered.

Here are some of the trendiest, most badass costumes that are bound to be a hit this Halloween. Ready to dive in?

Patrick Bateman — American Psycho

I’ll admit, the first time I read Brett Easton Ellis’s novel American Psycho, I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to rip the book in half and chuck it across the room, or give it a five star review on Goodreads and add it to my Favorites. Perhaps a testament to how much of an effect the character Patrick Bateman — who is played to perfection by Christian Bale in the film — had on me.

While there are many ways to master this look, including the clear raincoat and ax fit for only $21 bucks on Amazon, I personally love the visual of Bateman in his typical corporate business suit with blood splattering only one side of his face. 

To achieve this look, I recommend purchasing this classic corporate shark business suit, as well as this bottle of fake blood to coat only one side of your face with. (Just make sure you return those tapes to the video store.)

Thomas Shelby — Peaky Blinders

Another unforgettable costume to rock this Halloween is Thomas Shelby from Peaky Blinders. Grab your favorite newsboy cap along with the character’s iconic vest, long-sleeve, button-down, and 1920s pocket watch. (Note: this costume does not come with Cillian Murphey’s cheekbones, unfortunately.)  

Richie Tozier — It/It Chapter 2

my first (of many future) trip to Spirit Halloween of this year 🖤 #it #itmovie #it2017 #richietozier #cosplay #richietoziercosplay

Beep beep, Richie! 

Since everyone and their mother is already going as Pennywise, why not switch it up by dressing as Richie Tozier this Halloween? Although Finn Wolfhard’s character from the Stephen King adaptation serves as much-needed comic relief in the film, his biggest fear — ironically — is clowns. 

Amazon has a few awesome Richie Tozier outfits to choose from — including this Palm Waves Men’s Hawaiin shirt that he wears sporadically in the movie. Yet my personal favorite is this Freeses Department Store shirt that Wolfhard sports in the most famous scene of the film — when he enters the haunted house to defeat Pennywise once and for all… Or at the very least, for 27 years….

To complete the look, here are his distinct glasses, as well as a shaggy jet-black wig if you’re gonna go full out.   

Kendall Roy — Succession

Alexa, blast the Succession theme song. 

Why not go this Halloween as everyone’s favorite sad-boy, nepo baby, Kendall Roy? If you’re in the mood to become CEO of your fam’s notorious news conglomerate — or perhaps you just want to know what it feels like to slip inside the bones of the 1% — this is definitely the costume for you.     

To ensure people know which Succession character you are, consider wearing this Waystar Royco shirt with Kendall’s classic Quiet Luxury black cap. (Just be sure to keep your eye out for that Wamsgams fellow. He may seem unassuming at first, but you never know who might take over Waystar when you least expect it…) 

Jim Halpert — The Office

@theoffice

He’s a three hole punch version of Jim, duh. #TheOffice #Halloween #HalloweenCostume #JimHalpert #DwightSchrute

♬ Peacock_TheOffice_ThreeHolePunchJim – The Office

We all know Jim isn’t one for Halloween, so when he shows up to Dunder Mifflin in his three hole punch costume, everyone has something to say about it. You can steal this look without having to Superglue the black dots, with this Amazon fit. 

If you want to go full out here, purchase Jim’s Dunder Mifflin Lanyard ID badge that he wears every day to work.   

Burt Macklin — Parks and Rec

@julesmich20

Burt Macklin, FBI!

If you’re ready to solve some serious crime while teaming up with a wealthy widow who has a terrible, terrible secret, look no further. We’ve got you a costume right here. 

Bonus points if you bring Janet Snakehole to tag along for a fun couple’s costume look.

Noah — Nobody Wants This

With Netflix’s Nobody Wants This being all the rage, consider going as Adam Brody’s hot rabbi role, Noah. We all know that pivotal scene where he visits Kristen Bell’s family, and she gets a serious case of the ick — did somebody say Pregoo? Brody’s signature look in the scene involves running shorts with a formal blazer, as well as a bouquet of sunflowers. 

Stan Marsh — South Park

@81194cosplays

Mans just wanted a cookie 💔 I actually really liked my Stan cos I’m happy how it turned out 💪 I’m glad you guys are liking my South Park content #southpark #stanmarsh #southparkcosplay #stanmarshcosplay #stanleymarsh

♬ Stan wants a cookie – South Park

Feeling like goin’ down to South Park so you can have yourself a time? If so, you’re gonna love this simple Stan Marsh look that he’s been rocking since ‘97. You can snag the full costume here, or — for a more laid-back version — just pull on his signature puff ball hat and wear your own winter clothes. Trust me — people will know exactly who you are with just the hat alone.

Kyle Broflovski — South Park

@northweston

kyle is so underrated #kylebroflovski #kyle #southpark #southparkedit #kyleedit #kylesouthpark #kylesouthparkedit

♬ original sound – elly

Fun fact: did you know that South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker originally planned on killing off Kyle in season 5 instead of Kenny? That’s right! The series creators believed Kyle Broflovski and Stan Marsh characteristics were too similar so they planned to give Kyle the boot. So good they didn’t, since Kyle is the best character on the show!

If you want to steal his look, purchase his staple green trapper hat on Amazon for only $19 bucks.

Elio Pearlman — Call Me By Your Name

Do you identify as a hopeless romantic? If so, go as Timothee Chalamet’s breakout character, Elio Pearlman, from the 2017 indie classic Call Me By Your Name. Go on Amazon to buy the Talking Heads T-shirt he wears during that weighted scene in the streets of Crema when he finally confesses his feelings for Oliver. 

To complete the look, add his bracelets to the cart as well as Elio’s blue and yellow backpack — a bag super popular in the ‘80s when the film takes place. Don’t forget to wrap up the night by crying to Sufjan Stevens as you gaze into the fireplace. (Gotta do the outfit justice, no?)

Where are my Guardians of the Galaxy fans at? Wanna rock Chris Pratt’s character’s unforgettable look from the Marvel saga? You can’t go wrong with this Star Lord faux leather jacket from Amazon. 

To do the look justice, don’t forget to break out those dance moves to “Come and Get Your Love”.

I mean, who in their right mind doesn’t love Jay Gatsby? The man comes from a family of wealth, fought in several wars, went to Oxford, and throws the most extravagant parties… Well, at least that’s what he tries to convince everyone.  

The man, the myth, and the legend was written by F. Scott Fitzgerald all the way back in the 1920s. Yet here we are, 100 years later, still obsessing over his legacy. Get the dapper look right here on Amazon.

Sticking to the literary theme, you can show up this Halloween as everyone’s favorite literary mope, all you need is this super dopey red trapper hat that Holden Caulfield wears throughout the novel. Just be sure to steer clear of the phonies!

If you have the energy to defeat all 7 of Ramona Flowers’ evil exes, consider dressing as Scott Pilgrim this Halloween. There are so many ways to master this look, from the Plum Tree Tee, to the Smashing Pumpkins shirt Michael Cera’s character wears at the end of the film. 

Bonus points if you can grab a friend who’ll go as Ramona Flowers.

Instead of dressing as Jack Skellington this year, try being the fidgety, piano-playing Victor from Corpse Bride. This great Tim Burton character, voiced to perfection by Johnny Depp, needs just the right suit that fits the Victorian Era.
