Great Group Halloween Costume Ideas - Take Your Cue From Movies and Literature


If you are going mob handed to a party then you may want to coordinate your costumes into one theme. This will have a massive impact on other party goers when you arrive. Group costumes are also useful if you are going to a large venue so that you can spot each other in the crowd. Whatever your motivation, here are some great group Halloween costume ideas.

I've seen this many times before but it still looks great. Go as Alex and his Droogs from a Clockwork Orange. This film version of the novel was voluntarily withdrawn from public screening in Britain by director Stanley Kubrick, for fear that people would imitate it. He was probably more concerned with the violent aspect of it but today people love to dress up as Droogs.

A Droog costume is relatively simple. A white shirt and pants, Doc Martens boots and a bowler hat.  You can really get into the role by drinking milk and using some of the lingo but no tolchocking please.

In fact, you can get many great group Halloween costume ideas from films and literature.

How about D'Artagnan and the three Musketeers ? These are similarly themed costumes but each person can still have their own identity. A typical Musketeer costume involves a white puffy shirt, patterned tunic, pirate hat and a sword.

Robin Hood costumes would also work. Add Maid Marion and Friar Tuck and you have a few different costumes to go with Robin's Men in tights look.

TV shows and Super hero characters can also make for a good group theme. I think going as the trailer park boys would be a great idea. And it wouldn't be too hard to do either. If you like rum and coke then Julian is your man, Bubbles needs the big glasses and a few cheeseburgers for Randy.

If you really want to go for it then dress as the Munsters. Frankenstein, Vampira, Dracula and werewolf costumes will be needed for this group but you'll make a great impression at any Halloween party.




If you fancy being a musketeer this Halloween then simply click Renaissance knight costume, or maybe you want to be a knave from Robin Hood's time. Check out the full range of medieval knight costumes now.

Exclusive: Myspace in Advanced Deal Talks With Investor Group, Including Activision's Kotick

And then there was one?


Bobby Kotick


According to sources close to the situation, News Corp. is down to one possible investing group in its quest to make lemonade out of the lemon that its Myspace social entertainment hub has become.


In the lastest of many scenarios considered, several sources said its owner, News Corp., will continue to own about 20 percent of Myspace. The main bidder is a dark horse bidding group, which includes Activision Chairman and CEO Bobby Kotick as one of the potential investors.


The deal, cautioned sources, is not final and could easily fall apart.


Interestingly, if such a deal is struck, he would apparently be involved as an individual and not for the giant gaming company, and would play no management role in the company.


Kotick would presumably need permission from Activision for such a high-profile investment, even if he played a smaller role.


Kotick’s possible involvement has not been mentioned in previous reports.


Sources said the other possible bidders — including music video service Vevo, a group including Myspace founder and former CEO Chris DeWolfe, an internal effort by current CEO Mike Jones, several private equity firms and even myYearbook — mentioned in past reports have not worked out for various reasons.


Vevo had seemed the likeliest winner, but its bid appears to have foundered for now, due to the complex nature of its music label ownership.


It is not clear what the price will be for Myspace, which was once the leading social networking site before the world dis-Liked it for Facebook.


One thing is certain: It is nowhere near the $100 million that News Corp. reportedly sought.


The site — even after an overhaul to focus on entertainment — has recently been losing money and traffic, although it is still a large destination on the Web.


News Corp. declined comment, as did Kotick.
