Materials Required for a Cereal Killer Halloween Costume
- small single-serving cereal boxes
- plastic knives
- tape
- safety pins or a glue gun and glue sticks
How to Make a Cereal Killer Halloween Costume
- Use scissors or a sharp knife to cut a small slit (big enough for the blade of a plastic knife) in the front of each cereal box.

- Attach the cereal boxes to clothing using safety pins or a hot glue gun. (Note: hot glue will not wash out of clothing.)
For a Gruesome and Clever Homemade Halloween Costume, Dress as Road Kill
A road kill costume may seem a little morbid to some, funny to others, and perhaps unusual to many! Quick and easy to make with very little materials required, this costume makes a great last minute option for Halloween.
Materials Required for a Road Kill Halloween Costume
- black shirt and pants
- masking tape
- stuffed animal
- safety pins
- scissors
- red food colouring or Halloween fake blood
How to Make a Road Kill Halloween Costume
- Use the masking tape to place two straight lines down the front and back of the shirt and pants, spaced to look like the white lines on a road.
- Cut a small hole in the stuffed animal to let some of the stuffing peek out. (Skip this step if the animal is a special friend that should remain in one piece!)
