When it comes to choosing a Halloween or fancy dress costume most of the time we all think about the same themes and the usual costumes whether it will be a ghost, soldier, cowboy and so on so it is great when you can come along with a unique and unusual costume that no one will have or think about and make people stop and stare when you walk in to any room.

Now, though there are tons of costumes online like this, you may never think about them or come across them so here I will give you a few different ideas, even if some are still in the popular theme, there is always a costume that stands out differently from the rest.

No 5 The Dark Mad Hatter

The Mad Hatter is a popular costume, and there is a ton of different styles and designs to choose from, but one that really stand out is the Dark Mad Hatter costume. A pretty crazy looking black and white checkered long tail jacket, top hat and pin striped trousers with an oversized tea cup bow-tie really is crazy unusual costume that would suit both men and women.

No 4 Green Army Man

This costume is a bit mad, simply because if you walk anywhere wearing this masterpiece you will stand out like a sore thumb. From the Toy Story movie, the character a Sarge is popular one and it is unusual to see an Adult costume for him, but this is truly a crazy one, all green jumpsuit, hood, green boot covers, green gloves, green helmet and add in some green face paint and you are on to a crazy winner.

No 3 Mystic Medusa

Yes, you could say that it is not that unusual to see a Medusa Costume, but there is one with a difference and that is the stunning Mystic Medusa costume. Medusa is a famous Greek mythical figure, combining frightening beauty and fear and is a perfect unusual fancy dress. It is a striking green dress with draping fabrics, long gorgeous glovettes and leg ties with a crazy 9 snake head piece, a true Halloween nightmare sitting in at number 3 from the list of unusual costumes.

No 2 Edward Scissorhands

This is brilliant and I love it, the famous scary yet beautiful Edward Scissorhands comes to life in an amazingly created costume that can be worn by both men and women. With its all black out-fit and the scissors as hands, it is a true unusual masterpiece of a costume and one to get tongues wagging at any fancy dress party.

No 1 The Predator

Want to stop people completely in their tracks, bring in The Predator. There are a few designs and style for this monster perfect for a man or woman and they are truly a piece of genius costume making at its best. With that hideous head, chest pieces, armor and some with lasers this is definitely one of the best and most usual costumes you will come across and is my favorite.
