Weird Asia Halloween Costumes
As Halloween gets closer and closer, many people get more desperate to finally decide what they want to dress up as for one ghoulish night of fun.
Believe it or not, Asians love to dress up in costumes, and it doesn’t even have to be Halloween. Here are some of the coolest, creative, weird, and strange costumes we found from all over Asia.
Lion-O of the Thundercats:
The Pile of Crap:
Michael Jackson… sorta:
Coke Machine:
Monkey, Banana, and the Cockroach:
Every year around Halloween Kawasaki, a city near Tokyo, hosts it’s annual Halloween parade. The costumes seen at this amazing parade are so exceptional and elaborate it will blow your mind.
Here are some pictures from the Kawasaki Halloween parade.

That Thundercats costume has completely destroyed any fond memories I had of the show as a child. Thanks Weird Asia News :-\
However, I thought the brain-eating, zombie nurse was kinda cute.

Actually the coke machine is a assault-prevention sort of costume. Its a bag, I think, and it opens up to that costume so that you can hide from an attacker by standing along vending machines.
But other than that, the rest are lovely. Especially the ‘green-plant’ one.
And I don’t know about you, but IMHO, the thundercats one dosen’t look Asian.
