Halloween on a college campus is usually a big deal. There are often campus parties that have become tradition, and a night of fun can be what everyone needs as the stress of the semester really starts to pile up. But what's a great Halloween party without an equally great college Halloween costume?
If you need a costume just for yourself (rather than for a group or a couple), check out the list below. It features the best 2011 college Halloween costume ideas for singles.
1. Snooki or others from "Jersey Shore" (or any other reality TV show, for that matter). Who wouldn't want to do the Snooki poof? Or create a Situation? With people who seem more like characters than real folks, the "Jersey Shore" cast provides a seemingly endless wealth of costume ideas.
2. A classic character, like Elvis or Marilyn Monroe. These folks are classic for a reason -- and costumes with some of their best-known outfits can be easy to find.
3. Any famous person who was pregnant in 2011. Go for glam -- and a baby bump -- with someone like Mariah Carey, Kate Hudson, or Victoria Beckham.
4. Your roommate or a well-known professor on campus. The key to this one is to do it with respect. If you come off as mocking and mean, you'll look more like a jerk than someone with a great costume. Imitate your roommate or professor's more endearing traits, from clothes to body language.
5. Any character from a classic horror movie. Freddy Krueger, the clown from It, Chucky, Jigsaw, Jason, Dracula ... you name it, they're creepy. And great Halloween costume ideas.
6. A celebutante. You may not get the bank account that comes with the life of people like Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, or Nicole Richie, but you can at least have fun for the day (or night!).
7. The latest teen sensation. Nothing screams Halloween costume like Justin Beiber or Rebecca Black -- even if it's not Friday.
8. Lady Gaga. You can go classic Lady Gaga (meat dress, anyone?) or you can see what she's done lately. Coming to your Halloween party in an egg, however, might present a bit of a challenge.
9. A sports figure. You can go generic, like a baseball player, or specific, like Derek Jeter. Either way, sports figures are a fun and easy way to dress up for Halloween.
10. A figure who faced public downfall or ridicule. Charlie Sheen, anyone? A quick Google search of this year's headlines can bring up a large list of WINNING! people to dress as.
11. An action hero. There has been an abundance of movies lately featuring action heroes -- and more are on the way. Consider dressing as Captain America, the Green Latern, Spiderman, any of the X-Men characters, or even Catwoman.
12. A character from Adult Swim. With some of the more creative animated characters on TV, Adult Swim also offers up some of the best Halloween costume ideas.
