Dress up in a DIY Halloween costume as Eddie Munson from Stranger Things
By Diana Nosa
We haven’t conducted any polls or anything, but if we had to guess, Stranger Things is the top Netflix show everyone is taking inspiration from this Halloween.
From the many jock outfits to the various ghoulish creatures we received in season four, the possibilities for costumes are endless. However, you can bet your top dollar that everyone (and their mama) will be dressing as Eddie Munson for Halloween.
Eddie not only dominated Stranger Things season four with his extremely likable personality but also dominated social media with his very meme-able sounds. What better way to pay homage to this stellar character than to dress head-to-toe in his iconic outfit?
How to dress like Eddie Munson for Halloween
Fortunately for everyone, dressing as Eddie Munson is pretty simple since this character only lived long enough to sport one outfit. (Sorry!) To that end, you already know which outfit we’ve picked for your DIY costume!
“The Hellfire Club” shirt took the world by storm, making it very easy to cop a dupe for an affordable price. We think you should head to the Netflix Shop to get the real deal for $30.00, but you can also buy the shirt on sale from Hot Topic for $18.83.
After you’ve purchased this Eddie Munson staple, take a trip to ASOS to buy any of the following denim jackets:
- Mid Indigo Denim Jacket – $63.00
- Mid Blue Denim Jacket – $59.50
- Oversized Denim Jacket in Vintage Dark Wash – $25.50
(If you’re feeling fancy, you can also try out ASOS’s Faux Leather Jacket for $52.25.)
For the ripped jeans, we recommend that you visit H&M to get any of these stylish bottoms:
- Heavily-distressed Denim Blue Skinny Jeans – $39.99
- Boyfriend Low Regular Jeans – $39.99
- Loose Fit Wide-Legged Jeans – $39.99
In all honesty, any off-white high tops will do for this DIY costume; the same goes for any silver jewelry piece you always wanted to wear. But when it comes to that iconic hair, not just any wig will do! Head to Amazon to get your Eddie Munson wig kit that comes with a bandana and a guitar pick necklace all for $29.99.
As always, we recommend that you spruce up your DIY costume in a way that is totally and completely unique to you. After all, it’s what Eddie Munson would’ve wanted!
Now that you’re all informed about where to go, we hope that you have a spook-tacular Halloween, and also hope that after you get done partying like it’s 1986, you stream every episode of Stranger Things as a cherry on top.
