Severus Snape Halloween costume and wig
Get dressed up as Professor Snape for Halloween or a Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Movie party.
Severus Snape - his character as the nemisis of Harry Potter is clear from the first book and movie in the Harry Potter series. Yet he saves Harry Potter's life several times. It's not till the last book (and the last movie) that we learn his secret.
I'm not going to spoil it here. Suffice to say that Severus Snape is the most complicated of all the characters J.K. Rowling created for her Harry Potter books.
Snape is also one of the most powerful wizards in the series. He is the one person who can do occlumency so well that even Voldemort can't read what Snape doesn't want him to read in his mind. I can say that much, can't I?
He is a prize potions master, but also excells at Defense against the Dark Arts. Early in the series it's assumed that Dumbledore won't give the teaching of that subject over to Snape because he fears Snape might do a relapse. After you've read the final book, or seen the final movie, you might be tempted to reevaluate that judgement. There are other reasons for not giving Snape that job and they've got nothing to do with Snape's Death Eater past.
A Severus Snape outfit is all in black. From a black wig and suit to cape and wand - you'll want no bright colors for this most bitter of Halloween characters.

Severus Snape Wig
You could get another black wig of course, and mess up Snape's hair yourself. This wig though is cut a LOT like professor Snape's is.

Looking like Severus Snape
Well, first of all you will need a scowl. Then (1) a black wig, (2) a wand and (3) black clothes. Borrow your dad's outdated (3a) black suit if you can. If not, get one in the local pawn shop. None of that is going to work? Well, I did find you some alternatives above.
Professor Snape wears (3b) a black cape of course, so you need one as well. If Snape is going to a formal occasion, you'll also need a (4) black wizard's hat. This is not mandatory though: in the Movie we usually see Snape without the hat.
