10. Midsommar Cult
Dainty dresses and charming floral crowns are so overdone. But dainty dresses and floral crowns paired with a creepy smile and cultish tones? The only thing better would be if you got your whole group to participate and really come out on Halloween in full force.
9. The Scooby-Doo Gang

A classic Halloween option but still a good one. Immediately recognizable and easy to pull off, putting together the whole gang is always a smart choice. Don’t forget the Scooby snacks!
8. Napoleon Dynamite

Napoleon Dynamite and Rico may already be a pretty common Halloween sighting, but how often do you see the whole gang together? Take the group costume a step further by really making sure you’ve completed the extended cast!
7. Beanie Babies

Easy as pie, all you really need to do is construct the iconic beanie baby logo and find a way to hang it from your neck. Of course, there’s the matter of dressing up like an animal but that can be improvised with make-up, accessories, or onesies.
6. Arthur and Friends

Not only are they staples of our childhood, but they’ve also become wildly popular memes. You can tick off the boxes of nostalgia and humor when dressing up as Arthur and his neighborhood friends.
5. Fairly Odd Parents

Another lovable cartoon, you can’t go wrong with Cosmo, Wanda, and Timmy. Aside from spending some time DIY-ing their crowns and wands, it shouldn’t be too difficult to make up the rest of their costumes.
4. Clueless

As if! Anyone who grew up watching the teen flicks of the 90s has probably wished they had Cher’s life at one point or another. I mean, she did end up with Paul Rudd after all. But if you can’t be Cher, might as well pretend to be part of her world.

3. Recess Gang

The OG cool kids of the ’90s, T.J, Ashley, Vince, Gus, Gretchen, and Mikey were that group of friends we wished we actually had. Or could be part of. This Halloween, that wish could come true. As long as you get the rest of your friends in on the plan.
2. Dominos

A good idea for groups who don’t want a costume that has a set number of characters or limited options, a domino costume accommodates any group — however big or small. It also accommodates those looking for a last-minute costume since it’s really as easy as sticking some white shapes onto a black outfit.
1. Pulp Fiction

The great thing about Pulp Fiction is its simple yet iconic costume wardrobe. This means that while the outfits of these characters are immediately recognizable, they also use pieces that you most likely already have in your closet. It’s the best kind of chill costume!
