Sweeney Todd costume: Halloween Costume Idea #19

Straight from famous Fleet Street in London, the Demon Barber comes back to life in this awesomely realistic Sweeney Todd costume. It includes shirt, waistcoat, trousers and reversible apron and will turn you into a fiendish throat slitter in no time at all.

Popularised with the Tim Burton movie starring Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter, Sweeney Todd is an amazingly interesting legend that involves Sweeney killing his clients and allowing Mrs Lovett - his next door neighbour - to bake the carcasses into her pies and sell them without anyone ever knowing a thing. Lovely, eh?

If you want to really shine this Halloween, consider dressing up in the Sweeney Todd costume. It's a great alternative outfit that'll soon become a talking point. Or if you'd like even more themes to consider, check out our full range of Halloween costume ideas.

Now, how about a shave...?
