Convict - Stenciling numbers on your jumpsuit to might make people wonder if you've escaped from a chain gang.
Cowboy - Adding a bandana to your cowboy costume turns from Sheriff into an Outlaw.
Devil - The cute, evil or sexy variations on the devil costume make it a versatile choice for Halloween festivities
Doctor - Use accessories to tranform your doctor into a mad scientist.
Dracula - Almost all costume stores have false fangs that look so natural your friends won't believe you're not a vampire.
Grim Reaper - Imitating Death can be as easy as throwing on a black hooded sweatshirt, matching sweatpants and carrying a scythe.
Pimp Daddy - Be sure to have a wad of fake bills in your money clip so you can tell your ladies to go get something pretty for themselves from their Mack Daddy.
Pirate - Take along an empty jug with "XXX" marked on it and say "trick or treat Matey"
Witch - Attach strands of green yarn to the inside of your hat for that extra witchy look.
