The only reason we forgive Netflix for the three-year Stranger Things hiatus is because they gave us Eddie Munson. We first fell in love with him as he read about the dangers of DnD, and then again when we realized how easy it was to create an Eddie Munson Halloween costume.
Those may be slightly tangential feelings, but our statement still stands. Although the plot of Season 4 kept us in a state of mild cardiac arrest, Eddie Munson stole the show. He’s quirky, relatable, and has the best style. And, dressing up as him will win you major pop culture points as you bob for apples.
As Eddie wouldn’t say…we do like this!
It’s time to wake up and start your costume planning now. Because even though all of these items are available on Amazon, you never know if they’ll get lost in the Upside Down.
So dig up that guitar pick you have tucked away from the last time you tried to play Wonderwall, grow out your hair, and embrace the rocker vibes of the Hellfire Club’s leader.
Just be careful around bats, ok?

How to Make an Eddie Munson Halloween Costume
1. Hellfire Club Baseball Tee
An outfit staple. A symbol of rebellion. A…really comfortable shirt that we’re absolutely going to wear beyond Halloween.
Get it on Amazon.
2. Denim Vest
Nothing says the ’80’s like a distressed denim vest. And sure, it’s trendy. But it’s also practical! You always need layers in fall months when the weather can’t make up its mind. We can’t imagine the Upside Down is any different.
Get it on Amazon.
3. Black Leather Jacket
Wearing faux leather is one of the only times it’s acceptable to fake something. Trust us, ladies.
Get it on Amazon.
4. Shaggy Brown Wig
If you don’t have enough time to grow out your hair, grab this wig instead. Just make sure to headbang while you’re playing air guitar to get the full effect. Ugh…Free Bird again?
Get it on Amazon.
5. Distressed Black Jeans
Raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized by a great aunt asking if you bought your clothes with holes in them. On the off chance you don’t have a pair of ripped jeans in your closet already, this is the perfect excuse to get a pair. Wear them to Thanksgiving at your own risk.
Get it on Amazon.
6. White Sneakers
You’ll have to break a new pair of Reeboks or these bad boys in to get them as dirty as Eddie’s shoes. But we’re not afraid to do some dirty work. And by not afraid, we mean we definitely didn’t see that giant mud puddle. Or that other one…
Get it on Amazon.
7. Silver Rings
They say the devil is in the details, but Eddie says that DnD has nothing to do with worshiping Satan! We’re not really sure where we were going with that idiom, but these accessories are perfect for putting the final touches on your Eddie Munson costume.
Available on Amazon.
8. Wallet Chain
Attach this, go forth, rock on, and please, for the love of all things holy, stop watching the Season 4 finale. You ran out of tissues hours ago.
Available on Amazon.
9. Bat Tattoo
Depending on how you feel about bats after watching the whole season, go all in with a real bat tattoo. Or these temporary ones.
Available on Etsy.
