With Halloween upon us, we shun the traditional ghosts, ghouls and witches costumes in favour of some thoroughly more topical, if not controversial suggestions.

Michael Jackson – as the King of Pop, a Jackson costume is not complete without pallid face as his whitest incarnation yet. Failing that, dress up as Dr. Conrad Murray with a cup of poisonous ‘juice’ to sample…

Twitter Fail Whale – for the discerning Tweeter the fail whale hat is the dressed down Halloween costume of choice. Minimal effort, maximum impact and one you can whip off quickly should the, ahem… tweet arises.

Gaddafi (or his assassin) – just when we thought the Man with the Golden Gun theme was buried and forgotten, cue a NY Yankees cap, baseball jersey wearing bounder who only went and shot one of the most wanted war criminals of the 21st century. Don’t forget the pivotal Golden Gun.

Amy Winehouse – solidly backcombed beehive and lashings of smudged eyeliner is all you need to recreate this young lady’s sad parting. Optional props include death report addressed to rightful owner and tattoo gun ready to mark the occasion.

Charlie Sheen – dressed in a black T-shirt and trilby hat, clutching a signed Polaroid of yourself, garnish with some incoherent ramblings about winning and Tiger Blood.

Witches of Wall Street – to show your support for the Occupy London camp outside St Paul’s, why not get suited and booted as a banker, complete with Darth Vader or witchy masks and Monopoly money stuffed down your trousers?

The Kadashians – if you’re spoilt for choice on which one, we suggest Kim. Think long dark wig, short skirt and a pocket full of psoriasis skin flakes to scatter at your feet.

Jersey Shore’s Snooki – every day’s a chance to sport a new Halloween creation for this lady, which one will you chose?!

Facebook page – grab a large piece of cardboard, create a cutout top left as a profile picture, fill in some atrociously self-indulgent wall posts and voila; you’re very own nightmare.

Lindsay Lohan – her latest prison mugshot got tongues a-wagging for looking like an alleged addict. Peroxide blonde mop and orange boiler suit is all you need to nail this one; crack-pipe optional.
