Halloween in Manhattan is a vibe, from spooky rooftop parties to underground costume contests and cozy apartment gatherings. For cannabis lovers, it’s also the perfect excuse to get creative. Whether you’re going all-out with a group theme or keeping things subtle and clever, there are plenty of fun, stylish ways to celebrate your love for the plant this spooky season.
At Urban Leaf, we’ve seen some amazing cannabis-inspired costumes floating around the internet, from punny classics to high-fashion spins. Here are a few of our favorites (and a little inspo to help you design your own).
1) The Pot Leaf – Elevated and Iconic
Let’s start with the classic. The cannabis leaf costume never goes out of style, and it’s surprisingly versatile. You can go comedic with an oversized foam leaf, or make it chic by incorporating rich greens, metallic accents, and even glitter makeup inspired by trichomes.
DIY tip: Pair forest green clothing with a custom-cut felt leaf and some sparkle for a “grown-up glam” take. Bonus points if you accessorize with rolling paper earrings or a tiny grinder bag charm.

2) The Pot Doctor
Equal parts pun and personality, the “Pot Doctor” costume is for anyone who likes a witty twist. Throw on a lab coat, stethoscope, and a few “prescriptions” labeled THC and CBD. You’ll be handing out laughter (and maybe gummies) all night long.
Pro move: Carry a clipboard labeled “patient strains” and have friends sign up for their “prescription.”
Pair your Pot Doctor look with a calming indica strain for full bedside manner
3) Mary Jane Herself
Elegant, classic, and a little mysterious, Mary Jane makes the perfect muse for a cannabis-inspired costume. Think retro Hollywood meets green goddess: velvet, satin, or lace in deep emerald hues. Add leaf-inspired jewelry and a soft, smoky eye for a high-end spin.
This look is ideal for those who want a subtle nod to cannabis culture without being too on-the-nose.

4) The Human Joint (Because, Why Not?)
It’s goofy, it’s bold, and it’s guaranteed to be a crowd favorite. Wrap yourself in white fabric, use gold or brown trim for the “lit” end, and top it off with a few wisps of cotton to mimic smoke.
If you’re feeling ambitious, coordinate with friends, have one person go as a lighter, another as rolling papers, and another as a nug. You’ll be the ultimate smoke circle come to life.
Grab a few pre-rolls for inspiration or as party favors
5) High Priestess of the Harvest
Channel your inner mystic with this elegant, witchy costume inspired by cannabis as a sacred plant. Think layered fabrics, natural tones, gold accents, and a crown made of faux leaves or hemp twine. Add a joint or vape pen as your “wand,” and you’ll bring all the good vibes to any Halloween event.
This costume celebrates the spiritual and ritual side of cannabis – perfect for those who see it as both medicine and magic.

Bonus Ideas for Group Costumes
- The Dispensary Crew: Each friend dresses as a favorite strain; Sour Diesel, Blue Dream, Gelato, etc. Label your outfits with playful “strain cards.”
- Bud & Breakfast: Pajamas, robes, and joint props, because who doesn’t love a morning sesh?
- Ganja Galaxy: Metallics, holographics, and green face paint for an interstellar twist on being “out of this world.”
