Now that it’s October, it’s time to start planning your scary couples’ costumes. While you have the option to choose a funny couples’ costume, a cool Beetlejuice costume, or even a last-minute couples’ costume put together Oct. 30, I’d argue that nothing beats a horror couples’ costume. Because, really, there’s no better feeling than scaring your friends, family, or trick-or-treaters with your spooky ‘fit. Isn’t that what Halloween is all about?

Whether you prefer to dress up as classic horror icons that have haunted your dreams for decades – looking at you, Chucky! – or prefer to take on a more modern scary duo, the good news is you have a ton of options of scary halloween costumes for couples. But if you’re not sure where to start, that’s where we come in.

Here, you’ll find a list of the best scary halloween costumes for couples, with pictures and examples of how to re-create them yourself. When you decide on which horror couples’ costume you want to go with, though, don’t forget to shop for some props and put on some easy Halloween makeup to complete your ensemble. After all, they do say the devil is in the details.
