We keep our group looks together in the group and family costumes collection, and the wider range sits in our Halloween costumes hub. If your group has not settled on scary yet, our guide to Halloween costumes for groups covers the funny end as well.

Which scary group costume squad fits your group?

Pick the squad by headcount and by how much of your face you want on show. The zombie horde, the monster mash, and the masked skull crew each suit a trio; the slasher and asylum crew suits a group of five. Halloween is already a group event: in the National Retail Federation's 2025 survey, 71% of consumers planned to buy costumes, with $2 billion of the spending on costumes for adults (National Retail Federation, 2025).

What is in the zombie horde squad?

Three adults standing together in a misty field at dawn as a zombie horde: one in a full-body suit printed with decaying gray skin, exposed ribs, and ripped gray jeans under a snarling zombie face, one in a long black and gray tattered wedding dress with lace sleeves and a sheer black veil, and one in a torn-faced latex zombie mask with shaggy black hair

The zombie horde is three undead looks that work as one group: the Zombie Costume Morphsuit, a zombie bride dress, and the Torn Zombie Latex Mask. One of you is the walking dead head to toe, one is the bride who never made it down the aisle, and one wears the mask with clothes from their own closet.

  • The Zombie Costume Morphsuit is a full-body suit printed with decaying gray skin, exposed ribs, and ripped jeans, made from 91% polyester and 9% elastane with 4-way stretch. The pack is the Morphsuit only, in Medium to XXL.
  • The Womens Zombie Corpse Bride Costume comes as a long black wedding dress, a black jeweled choker, and a long floral veil with a headband, in sizes Small to XXXL.
  • The Torn Zombie Latex Mask is a one-size latex mask with a torn-open lower face and shaggy black hair, so it turns any outfit into a zombie look.

What is in the slasher and asylum crew?

Five adults standing in a row inside an empty warehouse as a slasher crew: a man in a bloodstained brown apron and black face mask, a man in a beige buckled straight jacket, a man and a woman in olive and rust striped tops with brown hats and toy claw accessories, and a man in a blue printed jumpsuit with an orange wig

The slasher and asylum crew is five separate looks: a butcher, an asylum patient, two striped killer costumes, and a killer doll. It is the biggest squad we have, so five people can each look different and still land on one theme.

Every piece in this squad is hand wash only; the Straight Jacket Men page adds cold water, a mild detergent, and an air dry laid flat.

What is in the monster mash squad?

Three adults standing together on a sunny suburban street as a monster mash: one in a bright green suit with an orc face and a gaping fanged mouth at the neck, one in a red, yellow, and blue harlequin-print suit with a huge fanged clown face across the body, and one in an off-white suit printed with wrapped bandages from head to toe

The monster mash is three full-face Morphsuits: the Jaw Dropper Orc, the Evil Clown, and the Mummy. Nobody in this squad shows a face, so the three of you read as one set of creatures. The Evil Clown and Mummy suits are 91% polyester and 9% elastane with 4-way stretch, and our Jaw Dropper Orc page describes breathable, stretchable material that you can even drink through.

  • The Jaw Dropper Orc Morphsuit - Green is a full-body orc print with a gaping fanged mouth at the neck, and the pack is the Morphsuit only.
  • The Evil Clown Suit Morphsuit is a harlequin-print suit with a fanged clown face printed across the body, in Medium, Large, XL, and XXL, and the pack is the one-piece Morphsuit.
  • The Mummy Costume Morphsuit is printed as wrapped bandages from head to toe, and the pack is the one-piece Morphsuit; check the size guide in the product images before you order.

Every costume goes through over 30 measurement checks, and we run over 500,000 quality checks a year.

What is in the masked skull crew?

Three adults in dark clothes standing together in a concrete stairwell as a masked crew: one in a pale purple snarling clown mask with red hair tufts, one in a cracked bone-colored skull mask with a black frayed hood, and one in a realistic cream skeleton skull mask

The masked skull crew is three latex masks worn with clothes you already own: the Evil Clown, the Grim Reaper Skull, and the Skeleton. Three masks is the whole shopping list, so a group can land on one theme without anyone changing what they were already going to wear. Our scary clown costume guide has more ways to build on the clown.

Our product pages for the three masks describe a hauntingly realistic look with a movable jaw that mimics natural expressions.

How do you coordinate a scary group costume?

Five steps make coordinating a scary group costume easy:

  1. Choose one squad and keep everyone inside it. The four here do not cross over: the monster mash is three full-body suits, the masked skull crew is three masks, and the zombie horde is a suit, a dress, and a mask.
  2. Check every size before you order. The Straight Jacket Men runs M to XXXL and the Evil Clown Suit Morphsuit runs Medium to XXL, so read each product page's size guide against each person.
  3. Check the view from inside. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission says "eye and nose holes in masks should permit full visibility and adequate breathing" (CPSC Halloween safety tips), so put every mask on and look around before the night.
  4. Check the fabric. The same guidance advises choosing "costumes made of polyester or nylon fabric and not sheer cotton or rayon fabric" to reduce fire hazards; the Straight Jacket Men, the Mens Nightmare Killer costume, and the killer doll are each listed as 100% polyester.
  5. Plan the group photo. In the monster mash and the masked skull crew nobody's face is visible, so let the prints and the masks carry the shot: the orc's fangs, the clown's grin, and the mummy's bandages all want to be in frame. In the other two squads, keep the claws, the apron, and the veil in shot.

Frequently asked questions

What are good scary group Halloween costumes for adults?

Four squads work well for adults: a zombie horde, a slasher and asylum crew, a monster mash of full-face Morphsuits, and a masked skull crew. Each is three to five looks, linked piece by piece above, with what is in each pack listed so nobody turns up short a mask or a hat.

How many people do you need for a scary group costume?

Three is enough for the zombie horde, the monster mash, and the masked skull crew, and five fills the slasher and asylum crew. A group of four can take the trio you like most plus one look from the slasher crew.

Can you see in a scary Morphsuit or mask?

Test the view before the night rather than assume: for any mask, the CPSC advises eye and nose holes that permit full visibility and adequate breathing, so put every mask and hood on and look around first. For comfort over a long night, our Jaw Dropper Orc page describes breathable, stretchable material you can even drink through, and the Zombie Costume, Evil Clown Suit, and Mummy Morphsuits are each 91% polyester and 9% elastane with 4-way stretch.

How do you wash scary group costumes?

Hand wash them and let them air dry. The straight jacket, the striped killer costumes, the killer doll, and the butcher costume are all hand wash only, and the straight jacket page adds cold water with a mild detergent and an air dry laid flat.

Can kids and adults share a scary group theme?

Yes, with a theme both age groups can wear, such as skeletons, zombies, or witches. Our scary family Halloween costumes guide builds whole-family looks; this page is the adult friend-group cut.
