- Regular clothes passed off as a costume. (“I’m a homicidal maniac–they look just like everyone else.”)
- A historical figure (Abraham Lincoln, Lizzie Borden, Cleopatra)
- A character from a fairy tale (Goldilocks, The Big Bad Wolf, Little Red Riding Hood)
- A movie character (Machete, The Bride, John McClane)
