Ready to cause a fright this Halloween? Halloween costume for men.

Killer clown costume

We’re sure you know someone who gets chills just from seeing a clown. After all, don’t you think there’s something dark behind that never-ending smile? If you want to cause real terror this Halloween, simply choose a killer clown costume and stand perfectly still while staring at your next “victim”. Take the fear factor up a notch with a Pennywise costume, the clown from It, and you’ll be the stuff of nightmares.

One of the secrets to making your clown costume look like it has stepped straight out of a bad dream is pairing it with great clown make-up or a killer clown mask. We guarantee you won’t leave anyone indifferent.

Zombie costume

Picture the scene: a global pandemic breaks out... sound familiar? But this time, humans become infected with a virus that turns us into wandering zombies. Although it might sound like the plot of a B movie, one thing is clear: zombies never go out of fashion.

If you’re a fan of The Walking Dead or 28 Days Later, we know a men’s zombie costume will be your choice for Halloween 2026. This year, join the ranks of the undead. All you need to do is practise a guttural groan and a slow, shuffling walk. Complete your costume with zombie accessories, fake blood or even fake wounds for extra realism, and you’ll look like you’ve just walked out of a George A. Romero film.

Vampire costume

It may not be as gory as the previous options, but a men’s vampire costume will certainly bring a sinister touch to your Halloween party. Become a descendant of Count Dracula himself with vampire costume accessories such as a dramatic vampire cape or a pair of fangs. Add a little vampire make-up and fake blood to make the look even more frightening and realistic.

Skeleton costume

Classics always come back. It may not be the scariest option, but a men’s skeleton costume is definitely sinister. You can even choose a glow-in-the-dark costume to stand out on Halloween night. One of the secrets to making yours different from everyone else’s is to pair it with skeleton make-up. It’s very simple: apply a black base with water-based make-up, then mark or draw the bones of your face with white make-up.

Mad and eccentric ghost costume

The ghost is one of men’s favourite characters to dress up as for Halloween. What really stands out about this character is the make-up, so you’ll need to make an effort with our water-based make-up to get the look right this Halloween. How do you do it? Start with a white base, add purple dark circles under the eyes and finish with green touches that bring moss to mind.

Joker costume

This costume is a hit at Halloween and fancy dress parties alike. It’s also one of the most popular choices for couples’ costumes. Who is the Joker’s partner? The famous Harley Quinn. Fancy dressing up as a duo?  

Of course, at Costumalia you’ll find plenty more ideas to celebrate Halloween properly, including men’s Grim Reaper costumes, Halloween masks, devil costumes and the one that never fails: the men’s ghost costume. With Halloween accessories, get ready for a spine-chilling night of the dead!
