Fun Ideas for Halloween Costumes for Three People

By Evelyn Jones


Halloween costumes for three people are fun to make and are popular because many people hang out in a group of three. People think that Halloween costumes for three people are more fun than Halloween costumes for couples.

There are common Halloween costumes for three people and there are less common but more creative ones. Some of the more common Halloween costumes for three people are the Three Musketeers, the Three Amigos, the Ghost Busters or the Three Blind Mice. These are great Halloween costumes for three people that are quick to make especially when you have a low budget.

The Three Amigos Halloween costume for three people or three amigos is very simple. You will first need a Sombrero but you can make one easily out of paper if you don't have one already. Then you need a cape or poncho that is colorful. Some instruments will add to the reality of the costume. Black shoes are a must for this costume. All three amigos usually wear fake mustache.

The blind mice costume is also many people's favorite Halloween costume for three people. Just dress in gray clothes to look like mice. Then make a mask that is black with eyes cut out. The mask will look a little like Zoro's mask. The holes around the eyes will enable you to see. The blind mouse costume wouldn't be complete without the mouse ears and tail of course. Sew them to the gray clothes with simple stitches so that if you want to remove them later it would be easy.

The Three Stooges is also one of the most famous trio and one of the most popular Halloween costumes for three people. They dressed in suits most of the time and also wore hilarious hairdos. See their pictures to make sure that you copy their hair styles and costumes right. You can find plenty of clothes similar to theirs in second hand stores and thrift stores.

One character was bald, so a costume head cover will be needed in that instance. And one character had longer hair, so a wig may be necessary. In preparation for the dressing up, it would also be fun to watch some of their old TV shows. This will help you get an idea for some of their mannerisms and jokes.

Sometimes it is creative to model Halloween costumes for three people after objects, not characters. For example, three people can dress as a firefighter, a fire hose, and water. For the firefighter, you can either rent a costume, borrow something from a real firefighter, or wear a jacket, snow boots, and an inexpensive fire hat you can buy in a discount store.

You can wear black clothing for the fire hose and you can add the nozzle to it using leftover clothes or just construction paper. Construction paper is cheap and can go a long way with Halloween costumes. For water, you can wear blue and make little droplets using construction paper again. This is very creative and will make the Halloween costume for three people look different and unusual. People will love it.

So many different Halloween costumes for three people can be made cheaply. Some are even better than Halloween costumes you can buy in stores. The key to making Halloween costumes for three people is to have fun while making it and be creative.
