Marrakech – If there’s one thing 2025 has delivered so far, it’s unforgettable horror movies, and they’re the perfect mood board for your Halloween costume this year.
Forget cliches like vampires or witches; this Halloween is about cinematic scares and stylish frights. Here’s how to pull off the perfect look, inspired by the year’s creepiest films.
For him: The Haunting of hollow creek
This gothic thriller had everyone talking, and it’s a goldmine for dark, mysterious Halloween looks.
Think long black trench coats, leather gloves, and shadowy makeup that gives off “haunted aristocrat” energy. Pair it with vintage boots and a stare that says, “I’ve seen things.”
For her: The dollmaker’s curse
The horror hit that made porcelain terrifying again. The costume is all about unsettling beauty: puff-sleeve dresses, lace details, pale makeup, and a crimson ribbon tied around the neck.
Add cracked-doll face paint and a lifeless stare, and you’re ready to haunt any Halloween party in style.
For duos: The pact
This film gave us one of 2025’s most stylishly sinister couples.
Dress to kill (literally) in dark formalwear, a sleek black suit for him, a silky dress for her, then add a twist: a fake blood-stained glove or a shared handcuff.
It’s spooky, elegant, and perfect for couples who like their horror with a hint of glam.
For groups: Whispers in the woods
Gather your friends and channel your inner forest demons.
This supernatural survival horror is the perfect inspiration for group costumes, think torn earthy clothes, mossy textures, antler headpieces, and smudged “mud” makeup.
You’ll look like you crawled straight out of a cursed forest, in the best way possible.
