Return to article: How to Create a Mad Scientist Costume
on 10/24/2007 Place a piece of 1/2" wide elastic lengthwise,(from lapel to back), on the inside of the "lab coat" and sew it about every inch. Place "test tubes", (a cheap, safe way is to use those plastic inividual cigar holders.), and swirl paint around on the inside to resemble different liquids. Slip the "tubes" into the elastic "holders. On the other side of the inside of the jacket, stitch a few "strange" mechanical/industrial devices that look deadly.... "SPOOOKY"! Then splash fake blood here and there.
on 11/30/2005 Carry a beaker filled with green glow stick liquid around.
on 11/22/2005 Take a glow stick and color it red with a permanent marker it will make it look like glowing blood.
on 11/22/2005 Try bald on the top and frizzy around the edges. Girls, it will make you look even more mad.
on 11/22/2005 If you're a girl, you can use a can of white hair spray, turn your head upside down and spray away. Of course, a little teasing will help.
on 11/22/2005 And don't forget to dye your labcoat a bright, funky color (ie. bright green, neon yellow), because everyone knows that a mad scientist thinks that only one certain color should be worn! Just make sure that you don't mess up the washer when dying!
on 11/22/2005 It's actually a lot of fun to be a mad scientist. If you are, every couple of doors make a strange cackle (loud laugh). Don't be afraid to be loud!
on 11/22/2005 Get a pair of the glasses with the eyes that pop out - they give other kids a real laugh.
on 11/22/2005 Two friends and I went as a mad scientist last year. We got our lab coats at a factory where I used to work. No wigs, just frizzed our own hair up and wore beagle-pus glasses. Worked pretty well!
