Addams Family Halloween Costumes
Hello and welcome to the Addams Family Halloween Costumes :)
When I asked my friends what type of Halloween costume they would like to wear for the Halloween holiday, I discovered that Gothic black costumes are usually appreciated by the women who I interviewed.
The first person I interviewed was my sister. There is no secret on her Halloween costume: my sister celebrates Halloween each and every day. It's an usual custom and her particularity. She wears only black clothes since twenty years; generally black pull over, t-shirt or blouse and black trousers; sometimes a black skirt.
Her skin is very pale and if per chance the weather is beautiful (it doesn't happen often in our country) and she would be tanned; she applies white powder on her face in order to get it back to white. The lipstick she puts on her lips is dark red or black. She has long black hair.
Sometimes my sister wears white clothes, like a royal widow; which is always a big surprise to her friends and family. My sister is Morticia Addams' clone, double or copy. Her friends call her "Morticia" and my sister's family is often called "The Addams Family". Her husband seems "normal" like Gomez Addams but he enjoys the fact that my sister is a very special person. Fortunately for us, their children do not look like Pugsley and Wednesday Addams and whether they would want to, there's no chance as they're blond!
My sister's family has already decided once for all that here family will represent the Addams family over and over again; whether for Halloween or any other event. In this lens, you will find some homemade Addams Family Halloween costumes examples.
Enjoy :)

Uncle Fester, Morticia's uncle
Addams Family Halloween costumes - chapter five

Another great Addams Family Halloween costume would be Uncle Fester's one. Uncle Fester was originally Gomez' uncle-in-law, who became in the movies, Gomez' brother.
Here's how to make your own Uncle Fester costume:
- Wear a frock (like those of the monks) or a long and large black dress
- Use a piece of rope as the belt
- Apply grey powder to your face and black powder or face painting around your eyes
- Do not forget to hide your hair to add the finishing touches to Uncle Fester's costume :)
Alternatively, if you do not have a frock or a long black dress, you may want to buy a ready-made costume.
