Most Unique Halloween Costumes



I am an older lady who doesn't see as well as she used to. I have a pet Dog and she became lost one afternoon. I sat down on the couch to watch my soaps and I haven't seen her since. I was getting worried so I decided to make up a LOST DOG sign and walk around the neighborhood.

I went to the local GoodWIll and purchased my dress, shoes and stuffed animal dog. Added a grey granny wig and some funny glasses. I took a picture of the stuffed dog to make the LOST SIGN and taped a paint stick on the back. I wrapped my body in a fleece blanket and stuffed my buns with couch pillows, put on some knee hi's and lots of make-up.

I had lots of fun with this costume, I played the part, Kids and adults would say "Your dog is behind you!", so I would turn around and say "WHERE? I Can't see her!" "Please, Don't tease me like that!" I like to make people smile, I know Halloween is supposed to be scary, but I'd rather make people laugh and smile than be scared!
