Top Twelve Lame "Scary" Costumes Number 3

Number 3-Witches
This one is a little tricky. At first I was feeling a little sexist by mostly focusing on male dominated costume, but honestly, with the exception of some of the gender-neutral costumes, there aren't a lot of options for girls to dress up scary. (Also, most costumes for girls are going the sexy route anyway. That's right, you too can be a sexy skunk this Halloween.)

Now I'm not here to hate on witches, just the scary movie stereotypes of them. You're typical Halloween witch that is going for the scare will have the pointy hat, the broom stick, and hopefully a long nose with a wart on the end. However, Nobody will be scared by this combination. After all, it's what you see in every movie and children's book you've ever come upon.

If you want to do the witch costume, try to go for something a little bit different. Maybe pick a specific character. (Like one of the witches from Hocus Pocus or The Craft.) That will help a lot and make you less of a cliche for the holiday.
