Create an authentic-looking Chucky costume this Halloween.
Chucky is the main antagonist in the movie Child's Play, in which serial killer Charles Lee Ray transfers his soul into a child's toy using voodoo magic. The movie follows the murderous antics of the villainous doll as he tries to become human once again. The 1988 movie preceded four sequels, including Bride of Chucky and Seed of Chucky.
Hair
Chucky sports a short, sloppy orange 'do. Similar wigs are available for purchase at costume or Halloween stores. For those more daring, dye your own hair orange and cut it in choppy layers that fall just below your ears. Slick the top back haphazardly with hair mousse, pushing most of it to the right side of your head. Braid three chuncks of hair on the left side in cornrows and secure with bobby pins or clear rubber bands.
Makeup
Apply a coat of foundation a shade lighter than your natural skin color to your face. Create a dark circle surrounding your right eye with burgundy and black eyeshadow. Leave your left eye bare. Using acrylic or face paint, draw scars and stitches on your face. Chucky has multiple scars extending from his right eye and one distinct vertical scar in the middle of his chin. If your eyes permit, wear light blue contacts to replicate Chucky's piercing blue eyes.
Attire
Chucky wears blue denim bib overalls, a multicolored striped long sleeve shirt and red shoes. The overalls are rolled into cuffs at the bottom, revealing horizontal striped lining that matches his shirt. If possible, purchase two identical striped shirts. Wear one and cut the other into pieces to sew onto the bottom of your overalls. Luckily, the overalls need not fit perfectly, so you can likely find a pair in any thrift store that will suffice. If you cannot obtain a pair of red sneakers, you can use red fabric dye or even a permanent marker to color a pair of white shoes.
Bride of Chucky
You and your significant other can create complementary outfits imitating Chucky and his bride, Tiffany. She wears a black leather jacket over a white dress. Accessories include black fishnet pantyhose, black combat boots, and a necklace that spells Tiff. She has light blonde hair and dark eyebrows. If necessary, you can darken your eyebrows using pencil eyeliner. She also has a small tattoo on the right side of her chest that features a red heart and above it, the name Chucky.
