Addams Family Costumes – Updated for Halloween 2016!
The Addams family was classic 60’s TV fare. The eccentric family headed by Gomez who was madly in love with his wife Morticia. They lived with their children, Puglsey and Wednesday Friday, plus Uncle Fester, Grandma Addams, Cousin Itt, Lurch, and Thing T Thing in a house that was more campy than creepy. These characters are so well loved that they’ve been brought back in remakes, though none are as fabulous as the original.
Great Group Halloween Costumes: The Addams Family
The Rest of the Addams Family
There aren’t any formal costumes for Puglsy, Lurch, or Grandma, but you could easily create your own.
- Pugsly’s look is school boy black shorts, a black and white striped shirt (for the movie version), socks, and black shoes.
- Grandma Addams wore a high-collared black dress, a black shawl and wore her gray hair long and unruly.
- Lurch, the butler, wears a black suit, white shirt, and bow tie. His hair is combed forward with bangs and his eyebrows are darkened with a pencil. Eyeliner is added and a creepy attitude finishes the costume.
