Funny Costumes for the Kid in You

When Granny loses her dog, the whole neighbourhood comes out to help! Overheard on the sidewalk: "Hey - where's that muffled barking coming from? Oh. Uh . . . Granny? I have some bad news." No dogs were harmed in the making of this Lost Dog costume.
You wouldn't buy her that shark she wanted for her birthday. The least you can do is let her dress up like one. This Man-Eating Shark costume for kids will make a splash wherever she goes. Better teach her the theme from Jaws before she heads out!
We suggest some ominous music to go along with this fun and spooky Ghost Pirate Ship costume. Slap on some ghostly makeup and practice your unearthly groans before sailing out to chase down the living. Lonely on the ghostship? Pick up a ghost pirate monkey for company.
And speaking of monkeys, you'll be a barrel of fun with this Barrel of Monkeys costume. The two monkey handpuppets are the perfect way to entertain the kids while simultaneously stealing their candy. Cheeky monkey! Plus the foam barrel gives you plenty of room to stash bananas.
Clever Cliché Costumes
This angsty goth cow is clearly from the wrong side of the field. Her delicious milk says "come hither" but her pierced tail says "stay thither, you jerk! And who stole my eyeliner"? Sullen AND good for you is a winning combination with this funny Goth Milk? cow costume. Keep clear of her glossy black hooves!
The clever Chick Magnet costume works on many levels. Firstly, it's a cheap and easy costume that won't mess your hair and requires no further accoutrements. Secondly, it's a giant magnet covered with cute fuzzy chicks. Who loves to come over and pet cute fuzzy chicks? Yeah, that's right - actual chicks. Happy Halloween, my friend.
Mickey Rooney has nothing on you. This Bar Fly costume is the perfect excuse to spend Halloween tossing back a few at the local watering hole. "But honey - I have to spend the whole night here. It's my COSTUME! And could you grab me another Corona while you're up? Where are you going?" Really Dirty Costumes - Adults Only!
Don't show these to your mother
No date? No problem. You'll enjoy the benefits of country living when you don this Country Lovin' sheep lover costume. I hear Bo Peep is planning a bridal shower for the two of you! Hope you crazy kids make it.
The rumours are true. Gentlemen prefer boobs. Take your main squeeze out on the town in this Giant Squeaking Boob costume. Team up with a friend and be the perfect pair! Giant bra not included.
I want to suck your - waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait a minute. What's going on here? I guess even Dracula needs a little companionship now and then. This funny vampire Down for the Count costume comes with a detachable inflatable date - just in case you need a break from all that . . . affection.
Let's face it - without Super Sperm, there would be no other superheroes. So doesn't that make him the GREATEST SUPERHERO OF ALL? History will decide.
Not dirty enough? Never fear. If your tastes run to the scatalogical, there a lots of funny costumes that look like sh - ... you get the idea.
