The Ghoul Costume Guide

The Ghoul from the Fallout TV Series next to a leather trench coat, bandoleer, cowboy hat and more costume accessories.

ABOUT COOPER HOWARD:

Cooper Howard, known as “The Ghoul,” is a complex and haunting character in the Fallout TV series. Once a successful Hollywood actor, he became disillusioned with the pre-war world and his involvement with Vault-Tec. After surviving the nuclear apocalypse, he transformed into a ruthless bounty hunter, driven by his own survival instincts. Despite his grim evolution, Cooper retains glimpses of his former heroic self, struggling to reconcile his past with the harsh realities of the wasteland.

How To Dress Like The Ghoul

1. COAT – This suede trenchcoat is modelled after the ones worn by the NCR in Fallout: New Vegas and is just perfect for this Ghoul costume! Of course, it is a little on the pricey side but if you want to make the best cosplay possible, it is surely a worthwhile investment.

2. Bandolier – Keep your double-barreled shotgun at the ready with this quality bandolier and utility belt.

3. HAT – Before the bombs dropped, Cooper Howard made his living playing cowboy heroes on the big screen and his cowboy hat is a sign that he hasn’t completely let go of his past.

4. VEST – This cowboy waistcoat in suede goes with the rest of this outfit very well indeed.

5. PANTS – Vintage tweed pants just like the ones the cowboys of the old Wild West would wear. You might want to dirty and rip these up a bit to get that post-apocalyptic chic look.

6. SHIRT – As a seeming reminder of his time working for Vault-Tec, The Ghoul wears a blue shirt that looks eerily similar to one worn by a certain recognizable mascot.

7. BOOTS – What other footwear could you wear with this outfit than a pair of cowboy boots?

8. GLOVES – A pair of leather gloves is the last accessory you need to complete this incredible Ghoul cosplay!
