White sheet with holes for eyes. Wanna know what you'll look like in that? An idiot! No no, I'm just being mean. You could dress like a bum, I dunno.

Anyway, I think I'm gonna come as the Asian Grim Reaper. Black cloak and scythe, complete with Asian Hat and this mask (http://www.emotioneric.com/images/emotionericmask_print.jpg).
In the meantime, here's me in a sad attempt at Mortal Kombat's Scorpion:

Dress normal, when someone asks why you didn't dress up point to a random person and say, "I came as that guy."

Depends on what you have available around the house.
My main scary costume this year - a scary lumberjack - requires only some simple makeup (fake "scar" tissue, oatmeal, and a couple tubes of fake blood to make an open head wound) and a prop axe. I've goty a flannel shirt, suspenders, a tuque, etc..
Google up simple halloween costumes.
I don't think that would fly at a Catholic school.
Oooohhh. Catholic school. I'd go with BackwoodsSquatches abortion costume, but that's just my evil sense of humor.
Last year my costume was something similar to this (http://www.halloweenmart.com/wecs.php?store=halloweenmar&action=display&target=LG8069), it was fun. But I gather you're male, so... yeah. I have no clue.

Easy and cheap, a classic Roman style toga. Get out your white bedsheets, bleach 'em, wrap 'em around you, steal your neighbors headband and tape ivy to it, and proclaim yourself Cicero reborn.

Someone just told me they knew someone planning on dressing up as me for Halloween.
But as a good suggestion... just throw together whatever looks costumey, and force people to guess what you are. You'll find that you did a good job as something - it usually works for me.

1 leg of pantyhose
2 grapefruit
1 black garbage bag
1 pair scissors
Cut hole for head out of bottom of garbage bag; cut garbage bag into long thin strips up to "collar". Place grapefruit inside pantyhose leg. Pull pantyhose down over head, so that grapefruit rest tightly against top of head.
Congratulations! You can now impress your friends with your realistic movie replica costume - you are now a Mutant of 2051 AD!

Regular clothes, white tape running along the entire outline of your body (top of the head, down by the ears, down the neck, across the shoulders, all the way down and back up the arm to armpit, down the side of your body and leg to foot, around foot up to crotch) which is your chalk outline, then, if you can find it, wrap some of that yellow police caution tape around yourself a couple of times and go as "The scene of the crime".
If you want to, you can also add a bullet hole to the front of your forehead, but it is not necessary.

I think someone else is doing Jason. Besides, we don't have hockey in Australia.

Australia must really suck. Ok, find someone else with no costume, if anyone answer to each other's names. For argument's sake let's say you're Bill and he's Ted. If anyone asks say you're actually Ted in a Bill costume and he'll say he's actually Bill in a Ted costume.
I was going to be a tree (wear all brown clothing and buy some green hairspray) but I ultimately decided to be a bat (wear all black and get bat wings) since I could get matching bat wings for my dog.
I'm pretty lazy.

Get a suit, and something to serve as a briefcase. Put a piece of paper on the briefcase that says [your name] Legal Associates in official-looking type (use WordArt or the like).
