Some genuinely scary UMich costumes you can go as for Halloween

Nothing more terrifying than a Mason Hall women’s bathroom stall

It’s nearly Halloweekend folks, and y’all know that one Mean Girls quote. If you’re like me you have an idea of what you’re going to be but then it falls apart two days before and you’re stuck scrambling for a costume, here are some ~fun and UMich themed~ costume ideas

A sexy DPSS officer

Like this, but sexy – Except for this fella is pretty darn sexy

Sexy cops are always a staple in the Halloween costume department, so why not spice up this classic with an added UMich twist? Spark everyone’s memory of that time their dorm room pregame got a little too rowdy and they had to shove all the booze into a sock drawer when a DPSS officer knocked on the door.

Not pictured: all the drawings of male genitalia

Arguably the spookiest (and most disgusting) place on campus, Mason Hall bathrooms are enough to give any girl nightmares. Just take a plain white t-shirt and write a bunch of stupid things all over it, grab an abandoned Starbucks cup, and make jewelry out of toilet paper for a cute look inspired by the ugliest place on campus.

Someone who has just stepped on the M

This is for all my minimal effort costume seekers. All you need for this is a Bluebook (or Greenbook, an environmentally friendly Bluebook) with an F on it and a look of pure terror.

That gross frat bro who is trying to mansplain football to you despite the fact you have been going to football games your whole life and your brother plays football and your high school boyfriend played football and you haven’t missed a game since you got here

Me doing my best impression of a frat bro

For this not fun and (you really wish he’d stop being so) flirty costume, you need a button down, pastel shorts, boat shoes and an ego large enough to fill 1800 Chem 20 times over.

Everyone during the last 10 seconds of the MSU game last year

I don’t want to look at the pictures of me on that fateful gameday, so I edited a happy gameday to look sad. You get the idea

For most of us it’s #toosoon, but if you’re one of those people who thrives on #toosoon costumes (also known as assholes) don your Saturday best and a heartbroken face.

Your grade on that midterm you thought you didn’t need to study for, so you decided “sure I can do Tequila Tuesday,” but you should NOT HAVE DONE TEQUILA TUESDAY 

Everybody makes mistakes, everybody has those days. Wear an F, Scarlet Letter style.

 Brady Hoke / Rich Rod 

Ugh, the worst

Ever wake up in a cold sweat, google pictures of Harbaugh in khakis and his sweatshirt to calm down, and chant “who’s got it better than us?” until you drift back asleep? Me too. Throw it back to the nightmarish period in our football tradition with costumes of two terrible coaches. Remember how Brady Hoke never wore a headset? Yeah, that was dumb, so do that and polo shirt for him and a quaterzip and headset for Rich Rod. Get your friends to be Michigan fans during this time, all they need is Michigan gear and a look of disappointment.

Your student debt

The saddest picture I could find of me. I am getting really good at snapchat editing thanks to this post

Turn your pockets inside out and carry a large blank check for an absurd amount of money to the university. Crying optional, ramen required.

A Markley Cockroach

For those of you whose homes are not infested with bugs, this is a cockroach

The fact that Markley has a cockroach problem is actually the stuff of nightmares. Dress round and dress brown to capture the essence of those lil devils.

A Wolverine

Note this is a real Wolverine and not an incredibly accurate Wolverine costume

Like a sexy black cat costume but brown. Go school spirit and go halloween!


Stay safe, stay sexy, have fun 🙂
