A hugely popular and very important part of the year's social activities, Halloween parties are fun filled, costumed events. Trying to decide just what costume you are going to wear to the party, however, tends to be a little less fun and much more frustrating than actually attending.
Several costumes are basically guaranteed to make an appearance at all the Halloween parties every year. Witches, ghosts, and Dracula (and maybe even his bride) are all popular Halloween disguises, but they are not the only ones available at local costume shops. If you
Most people, though, are missing at least one of these three things and thus choose to wear a ready made costume that's uniqueness comes from its absolute lack of connection to anything even slightly related to Halloween.

Costumes that are controversial, clever, or daring are sure to stand out from the rest of the more conservative outfits. Some people probably would not feel comfortable wearing such an interesting get up, but with just a little bit of confidence and poise it can be done successfully.
There is another simpler but equally effective approach to making your costume distinctive. All you need is something unexpected to act as a conversation starter. You are looking for a twist, and a brief story about it that you can use to attract some attention, and get a few laughs.
Here's an example of how to do it. Since ghosts are one of the most popular Halloween costumes, you could go as a Ghostbuster instead. That way, every time that you meet a ghost, you can start your conversation with "I'm here to bust you." You'll be sure to stand out quickly.
You and your friends can really get noticed if you all go together with coordinated costumes. Even though going as, for example, the Addam's family is not totally original, it will definitely get people talking about your costumes and will allow you all to have some fun interacting as the characters you're dressed as.
If, when you go to buy a costume, the only one left is the all too common Dracula, you can still mix it up and make it your own. For example, you could opt to wear Dracula's classic tuxedo top, but change the pants to golf pants and tell everyone at the party you are Dracula on vacation. This is sure to attract someone who loves golf and lots of curious party guests.
