Halloween will shortly be on us and now is the time to start considering your Halloween costume. The popularity of the flick 'The Dark Knight' has catapulted Batman into the recognition stakes. If you have got a love of comic books and the Batman films then why not honor this famous superhero with a Batman Dark Knight Halloween costume? Dressing up in stupid costumes is heaps of fun and Halloween supplies the possibility for children and adults alike to go nutty and dress as whoever or whatever they want! Selecting a costume could be a tough decision, but if you'd like something different from the usual ghosts and ghouls then you need to actually consider Batman. Everybody knows the silhouette of this fave personality and you'll be simple to set yourself apart as you leap out at your neighbours or fellow partygoers ready to fight justice on the streets. Batman has changed massively over the years and so have the costume designs. The first costume in the flick was made of latex and took 4 hours to fit, but you don't need to go to such lengths in order to find the perfect costume. Many online shops including Ebay and Amazon stock tons of Batman outfits in different designs and sizes and you are sure to find one that suits you. You could also take in the Dark Knight picture for more ideas and perhaps pick up some lines to make your costume even more realistic.  If you do not fancy a "good guy" costume, how about dressing up as the Joker? The Joker, though quite dark and psychologically ruffled would be a terrific character to dress as and it might take the minimum amount of effort. All you'd need is an old suit, some face makeup and just a touch of stupidity in your demeanour. As with the Dark Knight costume, the Joker outfit may also be acquired online and there are many differences in price and style. From the less expensive 20 buck outfits to the more galvanizing outfits complete with latex masks there are some things to suit all budgets and all tastes. Whether or not you are hot for the late Heath Ledger or the brooding Christian Bale, you will have fun recreating the characters in this fabulous picture and have a Halloween you'll never forget!
