DIY COSTUME ITEMS
To create a Charlie Brown Ghost costume, inspired by his mishap in It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, follow these simple steps:
- White Fabric (For the Ghost Sheet)
Start with a basic white sheet or fabric large enough to cover you entirely. Cut holes for the eyes, but to stay true to the character’s iconic ghost, make the holes uneven and scattered. This gives the “I got a rock” vibe from the movie, where Charlie Brown’s costume was accidentally covered in too many eye holes. - Black Construction Paper (For the Dots)
To make the black circles, cut out several round shapes from black construction paper. These circles will act as the random spots scattered across the ghost sheet. - Glue
Use glue to attach the black circles onto the white sheet. Spread them out in a random pattern to give the ghost sheet a more cartoonish, uneven look, just like Charlie Brown’s costume. - Paper Bag
To complete the look, carry a brown paper bag as a prop. This symbolizes the trick-or-treat bag Charlie Brown carried while going door to door during the Halloween special. - Fake Stone with Hidden Compartment (Optional)
As a fun extra prop, you could bring along a fake rock that has a hidden compartment for storing candy. This ties into the classic “I got a rock” line from the show. You can find decorative fake rocks online or create your own using cardboard or lightweight materials.
Bonus Tips:
- Attitude: Play up Charlie Brown’s unlucky, but loveable personality. You can even toss out the famous “I got a rock” line for laughs.
- Wear comfortable shoes: Since your feet will be hidden, you can wear any shoes underneath to make sure you’re comfortable for the event.
This costume is simple but recognizable, and it’s sure to get a few nostalgic smiles from fans of the classic cartoon!
