Coolest Blackmail Costume

My friend and I couldn’t decide what we wanted to be for Halloween so we looked up different compound words and figured we would each be half of the word we chose. We came across “blackmail” and thought that it was perfect. One of us wore all black and the other made a mail envelop t-shirt by printing out a stamp, address, and return address on fabric printer paper.

To make this blackmail costume funny, because we were both seniors in high school, we addressed the letter to an office of admissions for college because during this time we were applying to different schools. Unfortunately because we didn’t have all of our classes together when we weren’t walking around we couldn’t be “blackmail” but it still worked because one of us was simply an addressed envelope and the other was well, anything black-a robber, a mime, etc.

The costume was easy, fun, and took less than a night to create.
