Halloween Costume for Concert
Okay, so I need 2 costumes or 1 costume, depending on what you think will work.
At our school orchestra, we always have a Fall Festival Concert, which includes little kid games like cake walk and face painting and etc. This year, we decided that we'd do a "Haunted Strings Room" for the little kids. Morgan will make up a story line and someone will guide the little kids through the room that will be separated by large pieces of papers and tables and etc. In the process, we're going to have some strings kids jump out at the little kids to give them a little scare.
Well, I'm planning to be part of it but I don't know what scary-kid friendly thing I can wear. I really don't want to buy a costume because they're expensive and useless, seeing that I can't even go trick or treating anymore because I'm too old (15yrs old...our neighborhood says no one above age 12 can go trick or treating for safety reasons) Any suggestions? I have 2 black dresses & 1 red dress I wore to homecoming. Maybe I can wear one of the black dresses with ripped stockings and pretend to be a zombie lady or something. & I have this witch costume for long ago but it looks really crappy and childish for a 15yr old. I just basically need something to wear for the "haunted strings room" thing. And I could wear that while we're performing or I can change into something else quickly if you guys have good suggestions.
Bottom line--I need a costume I can construct out of the clothes and accessories I already have at home. . .or some cheap things I can buy for the "haunted strings room" & if possible, a 2nd one for the performances.
And I have already thought about wearing PJs...like I did last year. ..

I honestly think you should wear the witch costume. You said it looks childish - well isn't that what you're going for? Children don't need sexy costumes in their life, so be childish this Halloween. It's for kids, you need to be friendly & that costume will do just right.

that's really cool, i wish my school did that :) okay, here's my idea- if you have a black shirt and black pants (or just dark pants), then you can wear that and get glow in the dark or neon tape (white or colored is good), and arrange the tape to look like a skeleton on your shirt. kind of similar to this: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) but not as detailed, and you would just stick the tape where the bones are. does that make sense? and then for the mask, get a paper plate, color it black, poke holes for the eyes, and draw a skeleton face on it. you can attach string to it to keep it on your head. the zombie lady sounds cool too- some girls at my school dressed up as that, and it was so cool- they made their hair really big (like eighties hair band) and put like gray looking spray in it (not mandatory but a nice touch), and they had black gloves, ripped stockings, and crazy makeup- they had white powder on their faces and then lots of dark eyeshadow/eyeliner/lipstick on. it was really neat!
or, if you've ever heard of the legend of sleepy hollow- [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) then you could be the headless horseman- as i recall, in the cartoon movie, the headless horseman wore all black (you could do a black dress and ripped stockings for the headless horsegirl) and carried a carved pumpkin as a head. so to make this work you could do a black face mask with the paper plate, and carry one of those cheap plastic jack-o-lantern candy holders as your "head". i don't know if the kids would get that, but it would sure freak me out.
