Teen Halloween Costumes

How to choose teen Halloween costumes

Teens are often between kids and adult sizes, so the size chart matters more than the label. Compare height and chest with the chart on the product page, and read the description to see which pieces come in the box. If a teen has outgrown junior sizes, a small adult costume can be the better fit.

Teen, tween and junior sizes

Leg Avenue teen costumes come in Teen S/M and M/L. Disguise uses Teen 14 to 16 and Junior 7 to 9, and InCharacter tween styles run Tween S (8 to 10) and M (10 to 12). Dreamgirl junior costumes come in sizes from XS (0 to 2) to L (11 to 13). Some styles, such as skin suits and space jackets, come in one size fits most for teens. A few listings, like the teen and adult deluxe astronaut suit, cover both age groups.

Characters and fandoms

Harry Potter fans can pick Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw dresses or a Death Eater costume kit, with more in Harry Potter costumes. Gamers can choose a classic Bendy costume, an Audrey kit from Bendy and the Dark Revival or an Among Us crewmate. Disney and storybook picks include Cruella, Dolores Madrigal from Encanto, Tinker Bell, Aurora, Alice and the Mad Hatter. There is also a teen Wonder Woman, an alternative Spider-Man, Wilma Flintstone and Betty.

Scary and funny picks

For horror nights, choose a Ghost Face teen costume, a classic Chucky, the Crypt Keeper, a blood sucker vampire or a little witch. More scary characters are in horror movie costumes. Funny teen costumes include a hot dog, a Kool-Aid guy, a banana tunic, a penguin, a scary tree, an Icee swirl dress and a shark dress. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans can add Donatello's staff, Leo's sword, Mikey's nunchucks, Raphael's sais or Sun-staches sunglasses.
