How To Look Like Heath Ledgers The Joker for Halloween

By Danny Toleman

After the popularity of the latest Batman film, the Dark Knight, it isn't surprising that so many children and adults want to dress as characters from the film. The Joker was one of the greatest parts of the film, with his sinister looks and trademark catchphrase 'why so serious?' In fact so many people are imitating the Joker that it is a natural choice for any Halloween party. Not only can you have some fun playing the Joker, but it is definitely one of the scarier looks available this Halloween!

Why Should You Be The Joker?

Heath Ledger as the joker was a complete psychopath. He wasn't afraid of anything and was pure evil. The perfect character for Halloween! I found him so menacing but now it's time to do the menacing myself, so I have got hold of my very own Joker outfit. These costumes are extremely sought after this Halloween, so it is important to get your outfit early. I managed to find my costume online, so check out the links to find your own.

The Joker Mask - the Most Important Accessory

A Joker costume will not be complete without the mask, which is one of the trademarks of the said character. In the movie the Dark Knight, it features a more sinister Joker compared to the usual. But overall, he has that trademark smile with scars situated at the sides of the mouth. He also has this dark eyes with an extremely white face. The Joker Deluxe Adult costume is available with the best match to go with the outfit and looks very similar to the one that the real Joker in the movie wore. Moreover, it also has the matted blond hair so everything that you ever need of is already given.

Since the Joker is normally seen wearing a twisted business-like look, the Deluxe Adult costume also comes available with the same twisted looking attire. It comes with a purple coat, tie, stripe trousers, shirt, and waistcoat. Since the costume is patterned after the real Joker, which is seen in the movie, anybody would find it easy to guess which character you are trying to portray. For me, I found this costume extremely amazing since it is available with everything you need for that menacing look with a price that would not ask you to break your monthly budget. You may wish to add a pair of gloves and an old pair of shoes to complete the overall appearance.

More Ideas for the Jokers Costume

Since is it much simpler to shop online, I decided to get my Joker costume from an online store. On my search, I was able to see various costumes of different characters. I guess, it would be nice to hold a party with different characters from the Dark Knight film. All of the costumes are obtainable in a complete set or, if you wish, you could also get it as individual items. Basically, the Joker Deluxe Adult costume is available in a standard size which can fit almost all people, or if you are more on the heavier side, you can choose the extra large sizes to suit you.
