60 Creepy Vintage Halloween Costumes That Will Make You Crap Yourself in Fear!

Be afraid. Be very afraid!

What you are about to witness is not family photos of the local skin wearing serial killer or festival photos from some small remote island run by a crazy cult. These are actual vintage Halloween costumes and they are a scary sight to behold.

If you saw any of these people knocking on your door in the dark you wouldn’t be handing out candy you would be boarding up the door and dowsing yourself in holy water!

We have to admit that photo quality wasn’t that great back then. Together with a lack of art and craft supplies which wasn’t so widely available like they are today, people had to make their own masks and costumes from papier-mache (always creepy) and old bedsheets!

We’ve shown you many Halloween articles over the years including Crappy Halloween costumes but this time its time to now show you nightmare-inducing Halloween costumes vintage style!

Do you feel brave enough to venture on into a gallery of ghoulish costumes from yesteryear?
