NBA superstar LeBron James and his wife, Savannah, recently shocked the internet world with their interesting Halloween costumes inspired by Tim Burton’s classic movie “Beetlejuice”. But not all reactions to the power couple’s choice of outfits have been positive.
The film “Beetlejuice” is known for a fantasy, dark comedic plot where a deceased couple hires the services of the mischievous “bio-exorcist” named Beetlejuice, to get rid of the living tenants occupying their home. LeBron represented the main character, Beetlejuice, whereas Savannah chose a unique twist on the character of Miss Argentina, the receptionist from the movie.
Savannah shared their looks on Instagram, captioning, “Miss Argentina but from 330😉 And the bane of the underworld, Beetlejuice🤍🖤 #ItsShowtime.” Many of their fans and followers appreciated the effort and creativity, while some made fun of it and criticized it.

Lebron James put together a pretty serious Edward Scissorhands costume for Halloween. My 5 year old nephew caught about 10 seconds of that movie recently & is still having nightmares about “Scissors Man”https://t.co/IuV4ptanc2 pic.twitter.com/3iUxJgnjdM
