The Best Celebrity Halloween Costumes of 2023

Is it even spooky season without a line-up of stellar celeb costumes?

It’s no secret that celebrities love to go all out for spooky season every year, and this past Halloween weekend was no different. Between the countless stars who got all dressed up to attend the buzziest parties in L.A. to those who shared their meticulously planned looks on social media, the celebrity Halloween costumes of 2023 did not disappoint.

Yet, while many big names sported looks that certainly lived up to the infamous Halloween hype, this year’s costume planning may have been a bit more of a challenge for some SAG-AFTRA members.

Due to the ongoing Hollywood strike, the union issued strict guidelines on what members should avoid dressing up as this Halloween, which essentially included all TV or movie characters from any major production company. Instead, the union suggested that members wear more generalized costumes, such as generic ghosts, witches and zombies. So, if you’ve been surprised to see much less Barbie pink from celebrities than you’ve expected, the strike can be one reason why.

Although many have seemingly abided by the rule, it appears that Megan Fox flouted the guideline with her costume. Over the weekend, the actress shared an Instagram post that showcased herself and fiancé Machine Gun Kelly dressed up as characters from the 2003 film, “Kill Bill.” Not only were the costumes inspired by struck content, but Fox also tagged SAG-AFTRA in the post’s caption, making it clear that her and Kelly’s looks were a protest of the guideline.

Despite the challenges, many other celebrities made the best of the occasion. And the best part? This year’s festivities are far from over.

As October 31 is still just around the corner, we expect to see more stylishly spooky looks fill our social media feeds within the next few days. We’ll be keeping an extra special eye out for Heidi Klum, the self-proclaimed ‘Queen of Halloween,’ as she teased her “gigantic” upcoming costume on a recent “Tonight Show” appearance and through an Instagram post.

Until then, here are the best celebrity Halloween costumes of 2023 (so far!).
