Top Twelve Lame "Scary" Costumes Number 9

Number 9-Frankenstein's monster
Frankenstein's monster, seriously? This one can be interesting, but you've got to step out of the box in order to make it work for you. Frankenstein's monster is not going to be scary no matter what you do. I'm sorry, but it just isn't going to happen. You've got to step it up if you want to make a splash. Yes, you're still going to need to get some impressive shoulder pads and a dress jacket big enough to fit over them. You'll also need to figure out those clunky boots too. I'm not sure how you'll give yourself the hardcore flat top either.

So I guess there's a lot of work, but again, this costume isn't scary, even if you pull out all the stops and give yourself over completely to the character. If you can't outrun this guy, there's something wrong with you. Instead, you're going to have to find a twist to make it more interesting. Last weekend I was watching the horrible movie "Spooky Buddies" with the kids at my Boys and Girls Club and they had a guy that was dressed up as Frankendude. He had a surf board and was dressed like a surfer, but with all the get up for Frankenstein's monster too.

*note* Some of you may be confused by me calling him Frankenstein's monster. You need to know that Frankenstein was the guy that made the monster and he never got a chance to give his creation a name so technically this creature should be referred to as Frankenstein's monster rather than just Frankenstein.
