You want to go solo for this year’s Halloween? Another thing you have to consider, since the costume is last minute, is what you have in your closet that you can use.

With these 20 ideas that you are going to see, your Halloween costume will be effortless, but still amazing!

1. The one and only – Morticia Addams

Why not dressing like the icon itself – Morticia Addams? If you think about iconic movies, or characters related to Halloween, one of the things that will probably pop in your head will be Family Addams. You can get so many costume inspirations from the movie. Here, you are going to need a long black dress, long black wig and a rose. I think this is simple, but it will make you look absolutely remarkable!

2. The Red Riding Hood

The Red Riding Hood is not a Halloween classic, but still a classic. You are simply going to need a long red cape, a basket and comfy shoes. If you want your costume to be a bit more elegant, you can put some heels on.

3. Mad Max from Stranger Things

If you want to be trendy, but there is no time to prepare, check out Max costume from Stranger things! It does not require much – denim shorts, a t-shirt and a skateboard. If you are not a redhead, you might need a wig as well. If you want to do it the scary, spooky way, you can do Max costume from the scene in season 4, where she is levitating.

5. Harry Potter themed costumes – Expecto patronum!

There is no Halloween that has passed, without me watching Harry Potter movies! It became such a tradition that we make a movie marathon with my friends, and we even bought wands. We love being extra, when it comes to Harry Potter. Put the Sorting Hat on and tell me, which house would it be – Slytherin, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw?
