With Halloween creeping up on us, now's the time to get a headstart on your costume. The 2024 meme calendar has been filled to the brim with memorable viral moments, and if you get creative, you could pull off a legendary, timely costume.
Here are 21 Halloween costume ideas that personify 2024 memes and will make you the life of the party:
*MOVIE SPOILERS AHEAD*
1. The "Unknown" from the Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience
This Willy Wonka story is incredible. What's going on here? What part of the film was this hahahahaha. pic.twitter.com/A66AxwYVhN
The viral Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience gave us plenty of memes, but adding the horrifying "Unknown" to the mix was legendary. In this low-budget universe, this evil chocolate maker lives in the factory's walls.
If you want to dress up as the villain, you only need a black hooded cloak, a silver mask, and a black wig. Feel free to BYOM (bring your own mirror).
2. The miserable Oompa Loompa woman from the Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience
The Oompa Loompa from the knock off Wonka land experience looks like she’s running a literal meth lab and is seriously questioning the life choices up until this point. If you scripted this, I would say it was too on the nose pic.twitter.com/WwkGO8Hjck
Returning to the not-so-magical land of Glasgow Wonka, another viral character was the Oompa Loompa woman who looked like she was running a meth lab paradise.
If you can buy a green wig (bob-cut style) and orange makeup, you can likely oompa-loompa doopity doo.
3. The Dune: Part II popcorn bucket
The 'Dune: Part Two' cast has some hot takes about the viral sandworm popcorn bucket: "I'm not gonna stick my hand in there." 😭 pic.twitter.com/iuOQqHjAbs
Dune: Part II made headlines before it even premiered. The exclusive theater popcorn bucket was...uh...suggestive, but everyone would recognize it as a costume.
So get your Shai-Hulud-ussy read by crafting a sandworm head. Just remember to get your popcorn!
The 2024 Paris Olympics DELIVERED on the memes. Two of the most memorable viral moments were shooters South Korea's Kim Yeji and Turkey's Yusuf Dikeç, looking casual, relaxed, and pretty badass.
Grab a water gun and put one hand in your pocket. Come as you are for this costume or order those cool glasses.

9.Pole Vaulter Anthony Ammirati and his impressive bulge
One of the biggest surprises of Deadpool & Wolverine was seeing Channing Tatum finally portray his role as Gambit. The character was as unexpected as the performance but left its mark on the audience, and the Internet ate up the "Wooimbouttamakeanameformyselfere" meme.
Work on the accent and buy a deck of playing cards. Magic is possible with this costume.
