How to put it together
- 1
Put on the black tattered tunic over a black undershirt if needed for comfort.
- 2
Pull on the striped baggy shorts, securing them at the waist to sit loosely.
- 3
Put on the bat wings, adjusting the elastic straps so they sit snugly against your upper back.
- 4
Style the spiky brown wig and secure it to your head using a wig cap and bobby pins.

Clip the small monster mask onto the side of your wig, resting it just above your ear.

Makeup & hair
Keep makeup simple with pale foundation and dark, smoky eyeshadow around the eyes to match the Tim Burton aesthetic. The hair is the main focus: use high-hold hair gel or freeze spray to style a brown wig into thick, defined spikes pointing outward and backward.

Halloween Town Sora costume FAQ
- What Keyblade does Sora use in Halloween Town?
- Sora traditionally wields the 'Pumpkinhead' Keyblade in Halloween Town, which features a jack-o'-lantern design and a spooky, skeletal aesthetic.
- How do I make Sora's Halloween Town mask?
- You can easily make the mask using white and black craft foam or lightweight EVA foam, cutting out the pointed face shape and drawing the eyes with a black marker.
- Is this costume suitable for cold weather?
- The sleeveless tunic can be cold, so we recommend wearing a fitted black long-sleeve thermal shirt underneath to stay warm without ruining the look.
Did you know? In the original Kingdom Hearts game, Sora's Halloween Town design was created because director Tetsuya Nomura wanted Sora to blend in with the residents of the world rather than stand out in his bright red and blue clothes.
