Excellent mashup Halloween costume ideas for 2025
It’s been a decade since I last shared a batch of mashup Halloween costumes, but now people finally seem to be coming to their senses and the idea is coming back into fashion. Kristen Bell even shared a few of hers on The Tonight Show, like Carrie Bradshaw-shank Redemption, Ferrari-anna Grande, and Zac Ef-Ronald McDonald.
Not bad. But if mashup costumes are back from the dead, I want to be a part of it. Here are a few more I cooked up while I was working in the lab late last night:
Dr. Elphabunsen Honeydew
Bringing together two green-skinned idols: Elphaba and Dr. Bunsen Honeydew. White coat, black hat, round spectacles, and some green face paint. Done.
Cassian Andora the Explorer
Dress like you’re a reluctant part of a galactic rebellion, but throw on a purple backpack.
Marjorie Taylor Swift
I can’t figure this one out, but there’s something there and it’s terrifying.
Travis Kelce Grammar
Dress like Dr. Frasier Crane with a mustache and Gucci bucket hat. Or put on some headphones and wear a #87 Kansas City Chiefs uniform, except the name on the back is Grammar. Or, whatever—you get it.
Cake Pop Demon Hunters
I haven’t watched K-Pop Demon Hunters yet, but I don't have to have seen it to know that this one is a home run.
And finally…
Sabrina the Teenage Carpenter
This angle here is Sabrina Carpenter meets Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Lots of different ways to go at this one. And, of course, there’s also the “carpenter” element, so maybe you carry around a framing square or your "wand" is a carpenter’s pencil? Either way, your magic trick is making wood appear. ⚑
