This fun DIY Snapchat Ghost costume by Erica Domesek of P.S. I Made This for Cosmopolitan Online is a playful, Internet-inspired idea for Halloween 2015. In a series for Cosmopolitan, the DIY guru created a series of poignant pun-inspired costumes that also includes a Jurassic Park Ranger, Mer-maid and Ruby Red Riding Hood.
In order to create your own Snapchat Ghost costume, you will first need to acquire an old-fashioned sheet ghost costume, which shouldn't be too hard. Additionally, one will need a large yellow foam board, a marker, utility knife and phone case (to really send home the mobile theme).
The Snapchat Ghost costume would also look great when paired with a friend dressed as the infamous rainbow-vomiting filter that the social network recently added.
