The characters from Bob's Burgersmake for great Halloween costumes -- too great, really, since everyone and their mom wants to dress like the Belchers.
But that doesn't mean you should shirk your passion for butts and burger puns, as some may suggest, this Halloween. Go ahead and don that Bob's Burgerscostume with pride, but, please, add a twist so you don't look like the rest of the sheeple.
Below, find 11 ways to make your Bob's Burgerscostume stand out. When you're the fourth Bob and Linda to show up to a Halloween party this year, you'll be grateful you went all in.

Don't go as Linda wearing an apron and toting a glass of wine this year, go as Linda the Cher-iff (the glass of wine accessory works here, too, don't worry.)
In this season's Halloween episode, Linda takes the kids trick-or-treating and wears a winner of a costume. She mixes a Cher-style wig and black leotard with a Sheriff's hat, jacket, and badge.
You'll be the most clever Linda on Ocean Avenue.
2. Tina as a Mommy Mummy

Tina really shines in Season 3 as a Mommy Mummy. All you need to replicate this costume is the perfect yellow hair clip to accent your black fringe bangs, several roles of Ace bandages, and a creepy doll. Plus, you need to channel your inner single mom working two jobs and "just trying to get back out there."
3. Tina as a Mombie

Let's face it, Tina's mommy line of costumes are just what you need to break out of that Bob's BurgersHalloween funk. This season she went as a Mombie by painting her face green and wearing Linda's clothes. That, up there, could be you.

4. Louise as Mr. Frond

Louise knows how to pick Halloween costumes, and this one that got her banned from the annual school contest is sure to stump all your clever friends. You need brown slacks, a white button-down, a green vest, a tie, Frond-like wig, and of course, Louise's signature bunny ears. Bonus points if you bring a homemade yarn therapy doll.
5. Pickles

When the Belchers concoct a plan to win a prize in a float contest, Linda goes a little overboardwith the costumes. She makes way too many pickle outfits and lines them with sponges -- not ideal on a rainy day. Rather than dressing up as the Belcher fam in their usual garb, group costume seekers should take this Season 7 episode as inspiration. Four pickles and a Sasquatch-burger coming right up!
6. Bob and Linda go to Winthorpe

Last season, Linda won a LARP-filled getaway weekend at the location of her favorite TV show, which is a play off Downton Abbey. Take your Bob and Linda couples costume to the next level this year and recreate their Winthorpe Manor looks. You'll still need the 'stache and red glasses, but chuck Bob's chef's apron and Linda's mom jeans. Instead, grab a demure maid's outfit (no sexy Lindas please) and a three-piece suit.
7. Lady Bobbenstein
Instead of getting your hair to make the perfect flip to mimic Linda's dark locks, get a ton of hairspray and recreate this Linda-meets-Bride-of-Frankenstein costume. You can use any extra Ace bandages leftover from Tina's Mommy Mummy outfit.
8. Fat suit Bob

Teddy convinces Bob in Season 3 to don a fat suit when he shows up to his black-and-orange costume party without a costume.
This get-up lets you truly channel your inner Bob, trapped in a costume he hates and slowly dying inside. You're gonna have to really get into character for this one to pull it off.
9. Gene as grapes
The Belcher kids all had fantastic Halloween costumes this season, but Gene's "handsome grapes" are a DIY lover's dream. Just don't get trapped in a dead-end while hunting a wolf and your souped-up Gene costume will be just fine.
10. Bob and Linda as a dragon aka Godzilla's ding dong

You don't really need the classic Bob and Linda accessories for this one, just some green fabric, glitter, and a cardboard box you can fashion into a dragon's mouth. Don't put too much effort into making this costume, the rougher, the better. Bob and Linda did what they could, but Gene still thought it looked like "Godzilla's ding dong."
11. Tina as a sand-witch

After Tammy steals Tina's hot mess costume idea, Tina turns to magic to help her win the big school contest in Season 7. She takes her witchy ambitions a step further and dresses up as a sand-witch. (Get it, elbow, elbow, wink, wink!)
This costume requires some DIY craftiness, though. Make sure to save the cardboard from your oversized Amazon Prime delivery box that came with the last-minute witch's hat to make the bread slices.
With this ensemble, you'll definitely be more "powerful and alluring" than all the other Tinas.
