These inventive pop culture Halloween costumes are a fantastic way to prove you have a sense of humor and that you're up-to-date on what's happening in TV, music and the celebrity world.
This year, some of the most talked about TV shows include Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad. Fortunately, with just a few key pieces, it's easy to emulate the look of Walter White's yellow lab suit or transform yourself into the Mother of Dragons with a blonde wig and some makeup.
Some of the more unusual Halloween costumes include turning yourself into Grumpy Cat, a block-headed character from Minecraft, a living interpretation of a popular social networking site, or a unicorn onesie, which might inspire you to twerk like Miley Cyrus.
