When my kid was 1 year old, I did the next-stage version of Pregnant Zombie: Zombie Dad With Baby/Snack In Carrier. I put fake blood all over her little beanie and everything.
It remains the greatest thing I've ever done. We shuffle-walked up and down the main street of my neighborhood and got the dirtiest looks from other parents!

A friend of mine, very pregnant, went as a zombie to a Halloween party once. The whole evening she was just drinking and smoking like a fiend, and if anyone suggested she cut back a bit because of the baby, she got incredibly belligerent. A lot of people were legit concerned about the health of her kid.
Of course, she wasn't actually pregnant. Best costume ever.

I was thinking the "Hodor" parent-with-baby one was going to be the parent as Hodor and the baby as Bran. Come on, it's RIGHT THERE.

Nobody is talking about Tauntaun and Luke because it was the best by such a huge margin that it's not even worth mentioning, right?

And I thought that baby smelled bad on the outside.

My former neighbour shaved his head and went out with his newborn as Dr. Evil and Mini-me.

My sister had a baby this summer, and as soon as I saw my bald brother-in-law holding his child I demanded that they dress up as each other for Halloween.
It is happening and I can't wait to see how they do the tiny beard.

I swear to you, if Secret Service and President Baby come to my door this year, with the added flourish of orange pancake makeup, a windswept toupee, and an iPhone open to Twitter I will dump the entire bowl into their bag and pay for the kid’s college education.

My favorite costume at Gen Con this year was the pregnant woman wearing a T-shirt with the Death Star over the belly and the caption "That's no moon."

Dressing up babies for Halloween is one of the highlights of having one!

I doubt that many of these babies consented to being dressed up to take part in these things, if any at all!

I've added 'awesome Halloween costumes' to my list of reasons why I would like to have children. It's now 957-3 against the idea, but maybe 'have children' can gain some more ground.

phooky, that is some A+++ trolling. tbh I’d probably be horrified if I saw it, but it’s also amazing and brilliant on multiple levels. /impressed

Our toddler is far too wriggly for the carrier now, but we * are* doing a family costume, Steven Universe style: our daughter will be Steven, I'll be (young) Greg, and CatastropheWaitress is gonna be Rose Quartz.
