Ever since the first Harry Potter book premiered in 1997, kids and grownups alike have come under the spell of this boy sorcerer and his life at Hogwarts School. Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone as well as the succeeding 6 books and companion films have provided us with a world filled with miraculous characters, an enchanting world of witchcraft and magic, as well as a totally new game - quidditch.

What better way for you to spend Halloween than dressed up in a costume from Harry Potter and there are a great many to pick from. I'm going to give you a list of precisely what I believe are the 5 best Harry Potter costumes out there to cast spells or frighten this Halloween.

1. Dementors.

This has to be one of the most frightening costumes around as befits these kinds of foul soul-sucking beings who give protection to the wizard prison of Azkaban. These beings possess a human shape, are at least ten feet tall and wear dark, hooded cloaks that expose their horrid grey and decayed hands. They don't have any eyes and have a hole instead of their mouth. They feed on other people's positive emotions and pleasant memories and force them to relive their saddest memories as well as sucking out their souls. These are nasty and frightening creatures - fantastic characters for Halloween outfits.

2. Voldemort.

Lord Voldemort is quite possibly the most wicked and feared sorcerer and also the arch-rival of Harry Potter. He completely lacks common human feelings and responses and doesn't have any desire for companionship or love. His wish to secure immense power and immortality renders him extremely powerful and callous. Once upon a time Voldemort was described as incredibly handsome but he was metamorphosed into a monster. He is tall and slim, without any hair, discolored teeth, red-colored eyes, long and blue finger nails, no nose and a snake-like slit for nostrils. He wears a rather long darkish black robe and carries a wand that features a handle which would seem to be made from bone.

3. Death Eaters.

The Death Eaters are a small band of witches and sorcerors who are supporters of Voldemort. They commit a lot of unpleasant crimes. They recognise one another by the dark mark on their left forearm which was produced by Voldemort to summon them rapidly into his presence. They characteristically donned black, hooded robes and masks, but in the film Goblet of Fire they donned skull masks with pointed hats. In the Order of the Phoenix they dressed in metallic masks and purple robes.

4. Harry Potter's Gryffindor Robe.

If you envision joining Harry, Ron and Hermione in Gryffindor Home then you ought to dress in the long dark robe with attached hood and burgundy lining. The Gryffindor crest on the front is actually a lion rampant in scarlet and gold which represents the characteristics of the house - courage, bravery, daring and chivalry.

5. Harry Potter's Quidditch Robe.

Quidditch is a fictional game designed by J.K. Rowling and enjoyed by wizards from all around the globe. It's a fast-moving, exhilarating and dangerous game with two teams flying on broomsticks contending for points scored by throwing a ball, the Quaffle, through hoops and seeking to capture the golden snitch. The Quidditch costume is an excellent crimson ankle length robe with yellow lining.
