Here’s the Halloween Costume That Each Zodiac Sign Should Wear in 2024

If you’re really serious about being voted “best dressed” at a Halloween party, you need to start planning your costume early. Because Halloween 2024 is just around the corner, let’s discuss the costume you should wear, according to your zodiac sign. With new trends, flicks, and aesthetics permeating the zeitgeist, you know you want a costume that captures the current moment.

Halloween is always an opportunity to express yourself, but what makes it even more revealing is the way it forces you to become someone—or something—you’re not. Even the most quiet wallflower can turn into something larger-than-life on October 31. Even the most bubbly people can transform into something dark and brooding. You might feel like scaring people, making them laugh, or even turning them on, and the decision is entirely up to you.

This year, Halloween could get a little dramatic, but also enticing. The moon will be moving through flirtatious and aesthetically-pleasing Libra, which will be ruled by Venus in adventure-seeking Sagittarius. In other words, this is a good year to go all out and really get the most out of your costume. And because the moon will be squaring off with dark and twisted Pluto, you’ll definitely be scared in more ways than one.

The Halloween costume you should wear in 2024

Whether you’re feeling spooky, edgy, silly, or slutty, there’s something for everyone during this year’s spooky season. And remember, gender is always worth bending on Halloween. Here’s who you should dress up as this year, according to your sun sign, rising sign, moon sign, or Venus sign:

Aries: Rhaenyra Targaryen (House of the Dragon)

Aries: Rhaenyra Targaryen (House of the Dragon)
Aries: Rhaenyra Targaryen (House of the Dragon)

Aries is a natural leader of the zodiac, which is why they should dress up as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen from House of the Dragon. Only an Aries could tell a massive dragon to stand down, and if anyone attempts to usurp their throne, they’ll always return the favor with a fiery vengeance. Between Rhaenyra’s courage and her undeniable commitment to being in power, any Aries would be able to seamlessly step into her role.

Taurus: Kate Sharma (Bridgerton)

Taurus: Kate Sharma (Bridgerton)

If there’s one thing a Taurus wants to be, it’s pretty. This Venus-ruled zodiac sign is always gonna be dressed to the nines, even on a spooky holiday like Halloween. The whole vibe of Bridgerton and its array of Regency-era ensembles is perfect for a Taurus to exude a glamorous aesthetic that may not be as suited to everyday wear. If they were looking to center their costume on one person, it could easily be Kate Sharma, the Viscountess Bridgerton, a character that exudes grace and romance.

Gemini: Harley Quinn

Gemini: Harley Quinn
Gemini: Harley Quinn

You have a million different personalities, Gemini. That’s one reason why you can relate to the moody, intelligent, and unpredictable Harley Quinn. She not only has a PhD in psychology, but a penchant for bad boys with malevolent personalities. Sound familiar? Not only does Harley Quinn give you an excuse to act out your worst fantasies, but you also have the option of dressing up as either the Margot Robbie version or the Lady Gaga version. A Gemini loves having choices!

Cancer: Alicent Hightower (House of the Dragon)

Cancer: Alicent Hightower (House of the Dragon)
Cancer: Alicent Hightower (House of the Dragon)

Let’s be real, Cancer—you have a bit of a thing for protective mama bears. And because Alicent Hightower is equally as gorgeous as she is tied to the political whims of her messy children, you can definitely relate to her problems. While I’m definitely not saying you’re as vindictive as she is, I am saying she represents the dark side of your personality. Put on her signature emerald green gown and start bossing everyone around. You know you’ll have fun.

Leo: Pearl (Pearl)

Leo: Pearl (Pearl)
Leo: Pearl (Pearl)

Despite the fact that you’re the zodiac sign of sunshine, you know your penchant for being the center of attention has its dark side. When Pearl screamed “No, I’m a star! Please, I’m a star!” in front of a panel of judges, you know you could relate to her. As tears pooled in her eyes, you could also understand the deep desire to be seen the way you want to be seen and appreciated for your creative talents. Grab an axe and some fake blood, because it’s time for you to walk a mile in Pearl’s shoes.

Virgo: Deadpool

Virgo: Deadpool
Virgo: Deadpool

Despite how demure, modest, and low-key you portray yourself to be, you know what you really are—a total smart ass. Even though Deadpool wears an intimidating costume to cover his burn scars and conceal his identity, you can still spot him by the clever comebacks and sarcastic sense of humor. While you don’t always want everyone to see that side of you, there’s no use in hiding it on Halloween. Why not dress up as Deadpool for good measure?

Libra: Sabrina Carpenter (‘Please Please Please’)

Libra: Sabrina Carpenter (‘Please Please Please’)
Libra: Sabrina Carpenter (‘Please Please Please’)

You know you’re a sucker for a complicated love interest, Libra. After all, you’re ruled by love planet Venus and the air sign of harmony. But even though your exes have put you through hell, you’ve never allowed it to get in the way of your sense of style. Dress up as Sabrina Carpenter in her hit music video “Please Please Please” for Halloween, and remember that no matter how many times you get your heart broken, you’ll always be hot.

Scorpio: Regina George (Mean Girls)

Scorpio: Regina George (Mean Girls)
Scorpio: Regina George (Mean Girls)

You know that deep down, you always want to be the one in control of the situation. Enter Regina George, our favorite 2000s-era queen B, a character that could be none other than a Scorpio at heart. Thanks to the recent musical, Mean Girls has seen a resurgence in the latest trends, bringing back millennial aesthetics that could never be forgotten. Capture the moment by dressing up as Regina George and personally victimizing everyone around you.

Sagittarius: Beetlejuice

Sagittarius: Beetlejuice
Sagittarius: Beetlejuice

Beetlejuice has three superpowers—the ability to shape-shift, the ability to teleport, and the ability conjure anything into reality. At its core, these talents are really just a reflection of the Sagittarian archetype. You’re equally as adventurous and just as capable of pretending to be someone you’re not, thanks to the mutable fire that powers your zodiac sign. You can relate to Beetlejuice on so many levels, so why not dress up as him on Halloween?

Capricorn: The Joker

Capricorn: The Joker
Capricorn: The Joker

You know you’re a champion for underdogs and you can’t help but want to dominate the world. Enter the Joker, a character who represents every misfit and their desire to take revenge on a world that has largely ignored them. You tend to be a rather controlled and stoic personality, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have wild impulses. Dressing up as the Joker—whether it be the Joaquin Phoenix, Heath Ledger, or even Jared Leto version—will help you express so much latent frustration.

Aquarius: Lydia Deetz (Beetlejuice)

Aquarius: Lydia Deetz (Beetlejuice)
Aquarius: Lydia Deetz (Beetlejuice)

You know that when Lydia Deetz said “I myself am strange and unusual,” she had to be an Aquarius. This fixed air sign is known for being “different” and going against the grain, which is why her eccentric style and distant personality fully captures the Aquarius aesthetic. However, Lydia Deetz is still capable of connecting with literally everyone—even monsters and ghosts—just like you’re able to work a room. This costume will capture your spooky nature and outlandish proclivities.

Pisces: Willy Wonka (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory)

Pisces: Willy Wonka (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory)
Pisces: Willy Wonka (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory)

At you’re core, you’re silly, warm-hearted, and dreaming of something larger-than-life. You’re co-ruled by expansive Jupiter and fantastical Neptune, making you a personality that is just as soft as cotton candy as it is moody and unpredictable. Willy Wonka would be a perfect costume for any Pisces, as it will give them every excuse to be childlike and weird. It will also give you permission to eat every last bit of candy in the bag.
