The bad news is there are less than 20 days left until Halloween, so you may not have enough time to prepare a solid costume. The good news – sometimes you don’t need 6 months to come up with a fantastic idea. You can improvise with materials you have within your hand’s reach, your day-to-day clothes, and, of course, some Halloween makeup. The best part about these last-minute costumes it that they’re cheap as dirt!
In recent years, the most popular Halloween costumes have mostly been internet memes and pop culture references, not some demonic, scary stuff. You have your usual suspects like Lady GaGa, Spider-Man, Game of Thrones characters, but there are also these strange people dressed as Snapchat filters, beer-pong tables, and other outrageously fun-looking things!
Here are 18 last-minute Halloween costume ideas, while there’s still time!
