Carbon Costume

Gavin (Bruce McCulloch) is a recurring character on the sketch comedy show The Kids in the Hall. He’s a precocious young boy who’ll talk your ear off, prattling about everything and nothing all at once. He’d annoy you if you didn’t feel pity for all his hardships, from the death of his mother to the death of his pet turtle named Mom.

Shock, voiced by Catherine O’Hara, is part of the trio of antagonistic Trick or Treaters in the 1993 movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, along with Lock and Barrel.

She has pale green tinted skin, black eyes, stringy and curly deep turquoise hair with the same color around her eyes, and lighter turquoise on her lips.

Shock has a typical sort of witch costume, with a dusty purple hat with a ribbon, a dress of about the same color depending on the version (Kingdom Hearts has a lighter pinkish dress instead) with a darker purple trim around the collar, hem, and sleeves, and wears a green witch mask to go with her costume.

She has what appears to be grey gloves on, and what looks like black thigh high boots (you can probably go with just regular witch boots instead, with the tights listed above, and have the same effect).

Lara Croft (voiced by Camilla Luddington) is back in the latest iteration of the well-known adventure game.  Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the third, and reportedly, last, game in the Survivor Timeline of the series.  Lara’s look remains as gritty and practical as in earlier installments, with dark cargo pants, fingerless gloves, and a blue and black tank top as her primary costume.  It’s unlikely you’ll find pieces to exactly match her in-game outfits, so focus on getting as close as you can.  Lara uses a pickaxe that would set you back several hundred dollars, so if you decide to accessorize with one, don’t be afraid to go with a cheaper model.

Andrea Davenport (voiced by Jules Medcraft) is a top streamer and former nemesis of Molly McGee on the cartoon series The Ghost and Molly McGee.  Andrea can come across as egotistical, but it is eventually revealed that she’s very lonely, thereby becoming a friend of Molly and Libby Stein-Torres.  Andrea has ombre hair and wears a pink hoodie and purple skirt with white boots.

Anna Worthington is a character in Codename: Kids Next Door. She acts as secretary to James Nixon McGarfield, the class president of Gallagher Elementary’s fourth graders. Later on, she becomes his girlfriend. Because of her love for him, Anna is devoted to assisting Jimmy with his schemes. She isn’t a direct villain, but she can be cunning, possessive, and temperamental.

Drake Parker (Drake Bell) is a main character in the Nickelodeon sitcom, Drake and Josh. He is the older brother of Megan Parker. When his mom remarries, he becomes the stepbrother of Josh Nichols. Whereas Josh cares about academic achievements, Drake slacks off in school. He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed, as he doesn’t seem to know there’s a “New” Jersey. Drake would rather play electric guitar and flirt with girls. At first, Drake tended to manipulate Josh’s kindness, but as the show progressed, he realizes he needs Josh in his life. As a result, Drake learns to be more responsible and selfless.

J. Worthington Foulfellow, better known as Honest John (voiced by Keegan-Michael Key), is an anthropomorphic fox and con artist in the 2022 live-action remake of Pinocchio.  Honest John is charismatic as can be, and eventually convinces Pinocchio to join Stromboli after trapping Jiminy Cricket in a jar so he can’t intervene.  Honest John’s outfit is a hodgepodge of different elements.  First, you’ll need plaid pants and a red jacket as well as a blue and gold shawl fashioned like a cape with a gold chain to hold it in place.  Though your first instinct may be to get brown plaid dress pants, a pair of pajama bottoms may better emulate the bagginess of Honest John’s movie look.  You’ll also need a fox mask, tail, and slippers to pair with your outfit.  The finishing touches include a top hat, cane, and white gloves with ruffled cuffs.

The Corinthian (played by Boyd Holbrook) is a character from Neil Gaiman’s graphic novel The Sandman.  The Corinthian is a nightmare created by Dream, who makes his way into the waking world where he indulges in murder and influences others to give in to their darker tendencies.  In the Netflix adaptation, the Corinthian wears a long light grey trench coat and round-lens sunglasses to hide his “eyes,” which unlike humans are actually rows of teeth.  He dresses well otherwise, so lean into your preppier side when recreating his look for a costume.  He also favors a dagger as a weapon when not using his supernatural powers.

Apple Dumplin’ (voiced by Rebecca Shoichert) is a character in the Strawberry Shortcake franchise.  In the 2009 iteration, she is a cousin of Strawberry Shortcake herself who runs a blog.  She’s also best friends with Lemon Meringue and Sour Grapes.  Apple Dumplin’s look consists of a plaid skirt, white and yellow leggings, a white tee, and a yellow vest.  She accessorizes with a red knit hat, apple hair clip, and green belt.  She finishes off the look with a pair of red boots.  If you can’t find white and yellow striped leggings, a pair of pale yellow ones will also work.

Lock, voiced by Paul Reubens, is part of the trio of antagonistic Trick or Treaters in the 1993 movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, along with Shock and Barrel.

He has pale off-white skin, yellow sclera eyes with black pupils, red hair slicked back and styled up into devil horns at his forehead, and his teeth are sharp even outside of the mask.

Lock has turquoise blue lips, eyes shaded with red and purple on each lid, he wears a long sleeved red pajama set, matching red pointed devil shoes, has either yellowed hands or gloves, and a red, presumably real, devils tail. He also has a matching stylized devil mask that mimics his face and head shape, to match the other two’s themed masks.
