Scream Queens Halloween Costume Ideas
This month, Scream Queens made its triumphant, season 2 return, and we could not be happier. Not only do we have our weekly dose of Chanel Oberlin and disturbing plotlines back, but it’s also just in time for the most Scream Queens-esque holiday: Halloween (or, should we say, Chanel-oween?). As you contemplate what you’ll dress as for the scariest holiday of the year, it’ll be difficult to argue that going as some member of the Scream Queens kooky and spooky cast isn’t the most perfect idea. Whether you consider yourself a Chanel Oberlin through-and-through, a Hester at heart, or perhaps want to take a departure from your usual, kind, non-murdering self to play The Red Devil, there are plenty of directions to take a Scream Queens costume. Here, six characters you can embody, and how to do so.

To pull off a classic Chanel Oberlin look (you know, before she was in a jumpsuit or a nurse’s uniform), channel your most poised, preppy self — and add in a good dose of attitude.
