Kids love pirates. And not only boys can wear them. Look for some sailor pants or jeans. Wear a striped shirt with buttons and tie a bandana nearby their head. Accessories comprise an eye patch and an empty bottle with an image of a skull with "X" bones. Pirates usually have a wooden leg. So what you can do is to wrap one leg with a brown felt paper, instant fake wooden leg. Finally, ask your kids to mutter "aargh" and "Trick or treat, matey!".

Add some plasters, band aids and some bandages in your child's head and body. Use your make up to make some fake wounds and make it look more dramatic by adding some fake blood or ketchup.
Old Person
For an old man costume, you can use a long sleeves shirt, a pair of dark or grey pants, a flannel hat and a walking cane. For an old woman, an old-fashioned dress, knee-high stockings and a purse. Use your make-up and create some wrinkles on their forehead and make their eyes look old. Then work on their hair to make it look grey with powder or a minute flour.
