So, I’ve been wanting to cosplay Ghost from Call of Duty for a while now, ever since 2021 hit. And last year I worked on 3 Halloween costumes at once (idk why guys) and Ghost was one of them. For all of my costumes and cosplay I like to use what I already have and get creative - and just buy as little as possible - and if I buy I like to focus on things I will keep wearing more often.

Here’s how I pulled it off:

The Mask:

I found this sick 3D-printed Ghost mask on Etsy (shoutout to the amazing small businesses out there that are not doing dropshipping shit). Just gave it a paint job and done.

The Gear:

For the rest of the look, I kept it simple and reused stuff I had lying around.

My gaming headset. Doubles as my gaming setup AND a prop.

The storm mask underneath

Cargo pants, tech belt, and black gloves to give that tactical vibe

My beloved Doc Martens 🖤

The chest bag was another everyday item I worked into the cosplay. Practical AND giving that tech wear look.

The Weapon Prop:

Let’s talk about the prop gun real quick. Not real! I repeat, NOT a real gun, just a cosplay prop for the pics. Gotta keep it safe and fun!!

Why I Love Reusing Everyday Items:

One of my favorite things about this cosplay is that I didn’t have to go out and spend a fortune on new pieces. I love repurposing things from my everyday life because:

It’s budget-friendly.

It’s sustainable! Reusing and repurposing items makes the whole process more eco-conscious.

It adds a personal touch. These are things I use or wear all the time, so they feel real to me—and I think that adds to the authenticity of the cosplay.
