L.B. “Jeff” Jeffries

In Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, L.B. “Jeff” Jeffries (James Stewart) is a photographer who breaks his leg and is confined to his Greenwich Village apartment. To pass the time, he spies on his neighbors using his telephoto camera. It’s all in good fun until he glimpses what he believes to be a murder. For this costume, you’ll need to make your own a fake leg cast.

Madeleine Elster

In Vertigo, Madeleine Elster (played by Kim Novak) fears that she’s been possessed by her great grandmother who committed suicide. A retired detective is hired to secretly tail her and make sure she stays safe, but he doesn’t do such a great job when his fear of heights comes into play.

Hector Salamanca

In Breaking Bad, Mark Margolis plays Hector “Tio” Salamanca, Tuco’s uncle and a formerly feared enforcer for Don Eladio. In old age, he is wheelchair-bound and unable to speak, but the brass service bell he uses to communicate is nearly as dangerous as anything he could say.

Gus Fring

In Breaking Bad, the friendly and mild-mannered Gustavo “Gus” Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) expertly manages the Los Pollos Hermanos fried chicken chain. But this is only a front for his large-scale meth operation. You might say that Gus has two faces.

Minecraft Steve

In Minecraft, the player Steve might not be pretty, but he gets the job done. He spends many hours roaming the sandbox environment, mining resources, building shelters, and surviving mobs. Don’t look now, Steve, but you’ve got some creepers creeping.

Cammy

In the Street Fighter series, Cammy is an assassin who turns on M. Bison to become an MI6 secret agent. Cammy’s gloves and boots are well suited for combat. Her leotard and braided pigtails? Not so much.

Cole MacGrath from inFAMOUS 2

In inFAMOUS 2, Cole MacGrath is granted the electric-based super power, which has the unfortunate side effect of siphoning energy from other humans. He’ll soon have to make a tough decision between saving thousands of Conduits like himself, or sacrificing them to save millions of people who have come to despise him.

Luanne Platter

In King of the Hill, Luanne Platter (voiced by Brittany Murphy) is Hank and Peggy Hill’s niece. After her mom stabs her dad with a fork and their trailer home gets repossessed, she moves in with the Hills. She sometimes aspires to be a hair stylist, but is mostly lazy.

Sarah from The Last of Us

In The Last of Us, 12-year-old Sarah wakes up in the middle of the night just in time to see her dad Joel shoot a neighbor that breaks through their door. He tells her that they have to leave the house right away. He doesn’t even give Sarah enough time to put on her shoes.
