These Walking Dead characters have been through a lot, but at least they have each other. at present. We are still concerned that Glenn may not be here for long. So far, he's survived nearly being ridiculed at the finish line. He and Maggie travel to Washington together, but on a show like this, what appears to be a happy ending is almost certainly a death wish. If you don't want to think about the possibility of Glenn dying on The Walking Dead and you and your significant other want to celebrate his life while you still have the chance, then a Glenn and Maggie Halloween Couple Costume is the way to go.
Remember the good times. Keep delivering supplies and burning photos of each other as you vow to never leave each other's sight again. Much drama? You don't even need a weapon to be recognized as these lovable characters. In fact, I suggest you don’t go out with a fake gun on a Friday night. Although it may make you look bad, you don't want to cause trouble in the real world, and some parties may make you throw away or hand over your weapon. Bonus points if you take the wedding ring off the walker!
Plus, if you two are super lazy, this is a pretty simple costume since characters on The Walking Dead mostly just wear dirty clothes. You don't need to shower, just let your greasy hair hang down. You may not need to step out of the hamper to dress up.
Glenn Lee
Glenn has been dressing a little more maturely lately. He prefers khaki pants, it's easy. Depending on your plans for the evening, you may want to grab your old backpack (or current backpack, I don't know about your life). Just stay away from the guys with baseball bats, take these other items and you're Glenn!
Baseball shirt
Raglan 3/4 sleeve T-shirt, $28, American Apparel
American Apparel is always great for last minute outfits. They have a variety of baseball shirts or henleys to choose from.
cap
Shortstop cap, $20, lid
Here's the thing about TV Halloween costumes. Even if the character doesn't look like this now, sometimes you have to use iconic elements. For Glenn, that means you have to have at least one baseball cap, like this basic one from Lids.
fake dirt
Plains Dust character makeup, $14, stage makeup
This works for both of you. Cheap stage makeup can easily leave smudges on your face and shoulders. Bronzer might work in a pinch, but come summer you might miss it! If you're really ambitious, you can also add some fake blood from a Halloween supply store. Just make sure it's not infected!
Maggie Green
She's wearing a long-sleeved red shirt now, but for Maggie, I think I'd go with her season 4 look. Like the baseball cap, it is also more recognizable. Personally, I recommend that you carry a picture of Beth with you, show it to people and ask them if they have seen her. Maggie and Glenn may have traveled to Washington, D.C. with Abe's crew, but you still care about her sister, right? Here's what else you need.
Vest
While you're shopping for Glenn, you can also buy a shirt for Maggie at American Apparel.
boots
The more buckles the better. This is a good example of Modcloth. Pair these two brown pieces with dark or black jeans and you're set.
leather case
Indiana Jones belt, gun and holster, $15, Walmart
As a final post-apocalyptic twist, you have to give Maggie her holster. If you already have a thick brown belt with a "western" look, that's fine. If you do need to buy one, I would get creative and recommend purchasing an Indiana Jones costume accessory kit to save money. You can buy it at most stores, even Walmart! Just don't reveal your secrets in front of people you don't trust or they might start calling your glen "short round," which isn't nice. not good at all.
