When it comes to Halloween, the best costumes are the ones that combine terrific style, on-point makeup, and a little bit of horror. If you're looking for a costume that has all of the above, these American Horror Story (AHS) makeup tutorials are just the thing. Whether you're looking to channel your slightly spooky side or keep it absolutely terrifying, there's a character for you.
All four seasons of AHS have unveiled bone-chilling story lines and creep characters that make for the perfect Halloween costumes. It makes it so easy to combine your love of pop culture with the true spirit of the holiday — to scare the living daylights out of your friends, of course! Whether you're looking to shock everyone by looking like you walked right out of Asylum or keeping it witchy chic with Coven, dressing up this year is such breeze.
From the traditional sexy maid with a twist to an unconventional clown, these tutorials take your stereotypical costume ideas and turn them on their heads. Why just be original when you could be totally over the top? This show is done so flawlessly that it will easily give you nightmares for weeks, and these clever costume ideas bring that eerie magic to life.
