Harry Potter is more popular than ever with the opening of the Wizarding World in Orlando earlier this year and with the much anticipated Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1) coming to theaters this November.  Everyone loves to dress up as Harry Potter, of course, but you can also consider some of the other characters as great Halloween costumes this year too.

Keep in mind these Harry Potter characters for costumes too:

• Voldemort



• Hermione Granger
• Ron Weasley
• Dementor

• Hedwig the Owl

You can certainly purchase these Halloween costumes for the perfect Harry Potter look, but these characters can also come to life with some DIY magic too. A witch’s hat, black cape, makeup, and Hogwarts school attire can also make for a convincing Harry Potter costume too!
