Halloween is right around the corner and if you haven’t planned on a costume, or even dressing up, you’re in for a treat. Created by Big Group, the Halloween Horrors Chart illustrates every kind of spooky monster you’d ever want to be.

Halloween Horrors

The team came up with a bunch of categories to place each creature in, with ‘living’ and ‘undead’ as the umbrella categories and sub-categories such as monsters of the underworld, amphibians, extra-terrestrials, decomposing characters, vampiric creatures, humanoid-hybrids, and psychopaths. All are rather special, but if you can pull off an epic Mongolian death worm costume by the 31st, you’re bound to win that costume contest… or at least the hearts of other grotesque creatures.
