Halloween Costumes 2009 - Options in the Scary, Whimsical and Fun

Halloween costumes for 2009 fall in line with the common trends that occur every Halloween. If you want to find the perfect costume for 2009 then all you need to do is take a look at the common categories for Halloween costumes. Halloween costumes usually fall into four categories: movie themes or characters, celebrities and people in the news, odd ball ideas or classic costumes.

Movie Themes or Characters The year's top movies often play into the year's most popular Halloween costumes. For 2009 there are already some forerunners in this category. Disney and Pixar movies are a great option for whimsical characters. In 2009 the movie Up was rather popular so expect to see many costumes based on that movie.

For adults the movies bring a lot of fun since there are always some fun characters. For a fun look there are the characters from the Pink Panther 2 or you can go scary with someone from Friday the 13th. There is even a possibility of getting a little crazy with any of the characters from Alice in Wonderland which is a much talked about feature film for 2009.

Do not forget those classic characters like Winnie the Pooh or Mickey Mouse. Even if a movie didn't come out this year, these beloved characters always work on Halloween.

Celebrities and People in the News Another great category that makes for many Halloween costumes are celebrities and people in the news. Brad and Angelina are a fun costume with their many kids in tow. Then there is Michael Jackson who is sure to have tribute paid to him through many Halloween costumes in 2009.

You also cannot forget those people who used to be nobody's before reality TV made them stars. How about a Jon or Kate costume? Maybe you can go as one of their "Plus 8".

Odd Ball For the person that wants something out of the ordinary there are odd ball costumes. Some of these can be bought, but often they are homemade. No matter whether bought or homemade, odd ball Halloween costumes make a big statement. Some ideas are a bunch of grapes, a lego or a "cereal" killer.

Classic The last category is the classic Halloween costumes. These are the old standbys that you will always see on the street during trick or address. This category costumes are witches, ghosts and Hobos. Traditional costumes are easy to find and are often in many different styles, sometimes with a touch of style to break the predictability of the character. For example, instead of a traditional witch, there is a good witch, the pink and frills, instead of bears blacks.

Each category of Halloween costumes can be done to bring the person to adapt. Possible costumesmade for adults or children. They can be made scary or kept mild. It is also popular for adults to vamp up Halloween costumes and put a spin on them by making sexy. Whatever look you desire, it is possible at Halloween. It is the one time of year when you can be anything or anyone that you want to be. You are only limited by your own imagination.
