Recently, retail experts have begun to weigh in on what they expect to be the most popular Halloween costumes this year.  Near the top of just about everyone’s list?  The King of Pop himself – Michael Jackson.

Whether you liked him or not, you can’t deny that Michael Jackson was an extremely talented performer, and that his death on June 25th, 2009 was a major loss for the music and entertainment industry.  With hit singles spanning a four decade period and numerous iconic dance steps named in his memory, it’s clear that Michael Jackson deserved the title “King of Pop”.

And what better way to memorialize the passing of this legend than by buying a Michael Jackson Halloween Costume this year?  Let’s take a look at some of the most popular Michael Jackson Halloween costume options for Halloween 2009:

Thriller – Michael Jackson’s Thriller costume is a perfect choice for Halloween!  With a replica of the singer’s red vinyl jacket and pants, you’re in for a thrilling Halloween.

Billie Jean – The music video for the hit single “Billie Jean” introduced the world to some of Michael Jackson’s most recognized dance moves.  The key to replicating this look for Halloween 2009?  Lots of sparkles!  Don’t forget your sparkling jacket, cropped pants, bright white socks, loafers and, of course, a single shining glove.

Bad – The music and lyrics of “Bad” represented Michael’s wilder side – so be sure to keep this in mind when creating your Michael Jackson Halloween costume.  You’ll need a dark jacket that’s heavy on zippers, buckles and other trimmings to replicate this look.

Beat It – Leather (or vinyl if you’re on a budget) jackets are the key to recreating Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” look this Halloween, whether you go with the orange version from the music video or the brown style featured on his single release artwork.


The easiest way to get any of these Michael Jackson Halloween costume ideas is simply to purchase a ready-made costume package online. This will cut down on the number of hours you need to spend running around town, trying to track down each individual piece.
