The look

Top
White bedsheet draped over head and body with two eye holes
Shoes
Any comfy shoes (optional)
Hair
Hidden under the sheet

Makeup

Hair: Tie long hair back so the sheet sits smoothly over your head.

How to put it together

  1. Lay the bedsheet over your head and mark where your eyes are.
  2. Take the sheet off and cut two round eye holes.
  3. Try it on again and check you can see clearly.
  4. Trim the hem so it hangs above your ankles.

Two variations

  • Cool Ghost

    Add sunglasses over the eye holes for a ghost with attitude.

  • Scholar Ghost

    Wear glasses over the eye holes and carry a book for a bookish spirit.

Safety note

Make the eye holes big enough to see clearly, and trim the sheet above your ankles so you do not trip. Keep away from candles and open flames.
