Netflix Halloween Costumes: Nurse Mildred Ratched From "Ratched"

  • What to wear: Did "Ratched" give you chills, too? Dress up as the cruel nurse at the center of it all by wearing a teal, long-sleeve dress with a matching hat. Complete your costume with a dash of red lipstick and white heels. Sarah Paulson has played a lot of roles and has worn a lot of wigs, but perhaps none of her characters have been quite so nefarious as the wicked Nurse Ratched, originally conceived as the eponymous psychiatric hospital nurse in Ken Kesey's classic novel "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and given a twisted backstory straight from the imagination of Ryan Murphy in this Netflix series.
