It really doesn’t matter where you look for ancient tales about some of the most famous of mythical creatures. Ultimately, the core of the tale rings pretty accurate no matter where you’re finding it. Such is the case of the mysterious Medusa. In some tales, she was a woman of such incredible beauty that she was cursed by jealous gods, turned into a monster that no mortal could handle looking upon, ultimately even meeting her own end upon seeing her horrific reflection. In others, she was a sorceress granted great magic by demons who ultimately subverted her form over several years. But, one great fear remains true of the mighty gorgon… her gorgeous locks of hair became a nest of hissing vipers!But, who is to say that a nest of serpent hair can’t still be pretty! Prove those jealous gods and cruel demons wrong by showing off this exotic and lovely Wicked Medusa wig. This synthetic weave of vibrant green dreadlocks have just enough of the entwined serpent look to give people a second thought about getting too close but are exotic and beautiful enough that they’ll have to take a second look! Join this with the right sequined green dress or a nice set of serpent contact lenses to turn monster into mystery!

A real-life heroHeroes come in all shapes and sizes. There’s Superman, who can jump higher than a building and shoot lasers out of his eyes (sometimes… the power sort of comes and goes). There’s Spiderman, who can do some pretty amazing backflips and climb up walls without breaking a nail. There’s Wonder Woman, who wields the Lasso of Truth and, more impressively, never loses her invisible jet.Those heroes are all pretty great, but there’s someone who’s even more heroic. And she really lived, unlike the rest of these comic characters. We’re talking about… Harriet Tubman!Everyone knows the name of Harriet Tubman. This brave African American woman escaped slavery and made 13 missions back into the South to rescue 70 people through the Underground Railroad. But did you know that during the American Civil War, Harriet also served as a nurse, an armed scout and a spy for the Union Army? She was the first woman to lead an armed expedition in the war, and guided the raid at Combahee Ferry that liberated more than 700 enslaved people.

The Ultimate Multi-ToolIt can be difficult to decide what to pack when you're heading into battle. There are your standards, of course. You've got to bring your good shield, your war paint. And you're in a bad way if you forgot your warring snacks. When you're plowing through angry men and beasts with abandon, you've just got to have a high-protein calorie boost.

That's where this shiny, new piece comes in.

The ones where you're sent off to rescue a maiden from a high tower or find the spring of eternal youth. But that maiden can save herself, she'll probably befriend her dragon captor and ride on out of there. And the fountain of youth isn't nearly as important when you've got access to plastic surgery and hair dye! Maybe you could go on a quest to solve modern problems. Hunt for a pillow that's the right balance between flat and fluffy.

A Normal FantasyIt started off like any other day: You tidied up your cottage, spun some on your spinning wheel, fed your animals, and headed to your garden to pluck any troublesome weeds. But as you labored over a particularly stubborn weed, you heard it: the warning bell. Something terrible was coming. Before you could run back into the safety of your cottage, a shadow fell across your garden. You looked up, horror welling up inside you—it was a dragon! You tried to run, but it swooped down from the sky and grabbed you in its talons, hauling you hundreds of feet in the air. All you could do was scream for help.Thankfully, your screams caught the attention of a nearby knight, and he raced to your rescue. You could see him galloping on his noble steed, following you to the dragon’s lair. Relief washed over you as one thought overrode all others:“Thank goodness I wore my good dress today.”Product DetailsObviously, it would never do to be rescued looking like a farmer! When you’re a damsel in distress, you’ve got to look your best when your knight in shining armor arrives. That’s why we recommend always stepping out in this Womens Medieval Maiden Costume. The scarlet pullover dress has a cape attached at the shoulder seams, metallic gold braid trim and puffed sleeves, along with a scoop neckline with a ruffled elastic edge and a plastic gold filigree pin with an faux oval gem at the center. It also comes with a foam headpiece that ties around the head with a gold braid.No matter what medieval monster you find yourself facing, this dress guarantees you’ll always look your best!
DEATH WAS NEVER SO CUTEIf you ever wondered what the afterlife was like and got that slight pang of fear that goes shooting up your spine, well, we can completely understand that! The unknown is pretty scary. Even the word itself sounds pretty ominous. It probably didn't help that the ancient Egyptians decided to say that Death was like a shrouded black dog that hovered over you, ready to judge your soul against the weight of a feather or clunk you with his golden staff! But, who are we to say that isn't what death looks like? Frankly, a cute black pupper is a good deal easier to deal with than the phantom robe with a slashing scythe. Still, we can probably do better. We can make that image just a little, oh, we dunno... cuter? And, as everyone knows, tiny things are adorable! So, let's take that giant, scary Anubis and shrink him down into kiddo size and, zap, we've got a totally inviting deity of death to help soothe our fears. DESIGN & DETAILSTake the first step to afterlife comfort when you give your child this kid's Anubis costume. It comes with the black mask that features tall dog ears & eye holes, and a shining striped hood. The collar is a shiny gold wrap that covers the top portion of their chest. The shirt is a tight long-sleeved black jersey and the pants have puffy harem-style legs. The sash and belt feature the same gold of the headpiece with ancient Egyptian hieroglyph styled markings. The attached long teal cape and golden cuffs make your little death god ready for work! BOUND FOR ETERNITYAnubis was supposedly bound for all times to watch over the underworld and evaluate every soul that passed through his domain. We know that's a lot of work for a first-time deity, so we've worked out that your kiddos will only have to look the part until they're ready to tackle the big stuff. But, they're going to feel truly mighty in this Anubis look, either way!
Were you an inquisitive child in your younger days? Did you ask an endless series of Why or What’s that questions? So many per hour that you were about ready to make your parents ready to fall into the fetal position just so you might stop the perpetual interrogation? And, when they did, did you still loom over them and inquire, “Why are you doing that?”Well, of course you did. Didn’t all kids? But, the real question is if you kept up on this spectacular habit? Do you still have the knack for interrogation and the unending pool of curiosity fueling you to solve the most insidious of the world’s mysteries? Rather than attempt to convince you clever inquisitors to halt your investigations, instead try to praise you for your pursuits for the truth and lead you right down the road to becoming one of the best investigators of all time. Perhaps even the greatest, Sherlock Holmes!It is time to put your abilities to find the truth to the test. And, how better to do it than being clad in this Adult Sherlock Holmes costume? Made of conventional polyester, this coat and hat combo will give you the perfect blend of sophistication and intrigue to help solve all the cases along the way. A crisp set of buttons and an adjustable strap on the hat keep the garb fitting well. Add a few accessories like an oversized magnifying glass or a cob pipe and you’ll have Moriarty asking why he ever dared to come to your neighborhood to perpetuate his endless crime spree. Makes us wonder a bit what kind of kid he started off as!? Maybe endless questions aren’t so bad in comparison!
Ever watched any film or television show that features a keen eye into the mystical lands of ancient Egypt? If so, you’ve been plunged into a world of powerful magic that is wrapped up in more mystery than any other mythology. Mummies rise up from ancient entombment either to guard their pyramids or crypts or perhaps arising from a curse that afflicts both them and those who look upon them. The gods watch over the land, demanding attentive worship while conniving amongst themselves at a rate that would have the Olympian pantheon tuning in daily to keep up on the drama. And the pharaohs, too, have their own enigmatic legacies. One never is sure they know the full story of anything that comes of the old sands.But, legends also speak of the Dark Pharaoh… powerful kings that with their inherited divine power did not wish to simply relinquish their forms and spirits to complete the cycle of life and death. Instead, they sought to perpetuate their own lives, to remain forever and keep the godly might that was rightfully theirs. Such disruptions to Ma’at would bring down anger and curses from the gods and such a pharaoh might even rise as the most treacherous creatures of all ancient Egyptian myth: the mummy.But… that won’t happen to you! That happens to other dark pharaohs. The type who aren’t connected to the real world, who haven’t earned their long-lasting power and life! So, you have no fear in this Adult Black Pharaoh costume. The shining black robe provides a dark and mysterious base when contrasted with the golden finish of the belt and iconic regal collar. The matching black and gold headpiece frames your noble face and demands respect from your subjects. Now you only need acquire your mystical scepter and your immortality is ensured. Otherwise… there is always a mummy costume for next year!
More Souls than You can shake the Styx AtThere's a lot going on in the underworld. More souls are crossing the River Styx every day. There are plots to plan. Minions to command. And if you could just get The Fates to listen to what you have to say without interrupting what you have to say with a, "we know" than perhaps you could keep your cool. Still, Hades is the man for the job. He's got plenty of charm for a guy who hangs around the dead all day. Very little gets past him. He found out about Hercules when the chump was a simple sunspot. And if his minions had learned a little competency, perhaps he'd be the ruling leader as we speak. But no, his minions failed him, as minions often do. And while he's still simply ruling the underworld instead of sitting in a place of honor on Mount Olympus, we can't help but think that this immortal fella has still got a lot to offer! Pomegranate seeds, anyone?Product DetailsFire yourself up for Halloween when you throw on this flaming Hades costume! This Disney licensed look includes a simple tunic that fits over your head. The blue color under black drapery with skull detail is sure to make you look like you stepped right out of everyone's favorite Grecian cartoon. A fiery blue wig tops off the look, making you instantly recognizable as the scintillating, incendiary ruler of the underworld.An Immortal CastAll the characters from Hercules are so much fun, we can't help but wish we could see them together again. Grant Disney fans the wish they never knew they had when you pair up with friends to go as Meg, Hercules, and Hades for a group costume. Memories of this Halloween are sure to be immortal!
This is Sparta!King Leonidas has quite a problem. Greece's greatest enemies, the Persians, are trying to invade! He's going to need to gather up as many of his countrymen as possible to protect his beloved homeland. He knows he'll need the help of the mighty Spartan warriors, but will they be able to crawl over to the battlefield in time to join into the fray? Or will they over-sleep during naptime and miss the whole thing?Leonidas calls his men to sound the alarm and shake the battle rattles, alerting everyone to the critical situation. He wishes he could send out messengers with information about what's going on, but he hasn't learned to write yet, and he's sure the rest of the troops haven't learned to read yet, anyway. This is a terrible predicament! As the Persian forces draw nearer, Leonidas knows time is running out, and he has no idea how to rally his army to victory or even escape himself. With the rest of his options exhausted, there's only one thing left for him to do: He throws himself onto the ground and starts crying as loudly as he can, hoping that his mommy will come fast and fix everything.Product DetailsMake your baby battle-ready with this adorable Infant Silly Spartan Costume.

His mom comes and scoops him up off the ground, carrying him away to safety. He will live to fight another day!
Are you always picking up the weapons of your vanquished foes, only to find yourself tossing them aside the next time a lion challenges you to a Greco-Roman wrestling match? You're not alone. According to a recent survey, one in five men may experience problems keeping track of his sword in the arena. This debilitating problem can result in emotional distress, confusion, and a drastic reduction in the number of his remaining limbs. And it afflicts more people than you might think!But now, there's hope. This detailed armament combo makes use of a revolutionary advance in faux metallurgy that allows a warrior to sheathe his weapon inside his shield! We expect both the gladiator-on-the-go and the hands-on naturalist to make heavy use of the slot deftly concealed behind the lion's head relief at the center of this buckler, which fits the included broadsword. Who says that there's nothing new under the sun?
15th Century SurpriseMedieval times used to be pretty wild. People believed in witches, unicorns, and sea monsters that lingered on the unknown borders of the map. Rampant disease made sure that the kings in power were always changing, causing all sorts of wars and skirmishes. Still, in all this chaos, people were shocked when a young woman in France demanded an army to defend the French throne. Somehow, she was taken seriously. She led victorious battle after battle while she was still a teenager. We cringe to think about what we were up to at 18.

The cameo attaches to the collar to add an authentic look to the outfit and the whole thing is finished off with a sash. The sash fits around your shoulder and reads, "Votes for Women".

Wearing a fur coat lets everyone know that you know your way around a high-end department store and you've probably spent some time on a yacht.That didn't used to be the case.

The Vikings were known for grit, fearlessness, and exploration; they were not known for having skilled barbers or hairdressers. So as a result, they sometimes looked a bit shaggy. Men braided their beards to keep them tidy. But it turns out that the shaggy, unkempt look was a good thing, because it made their warriors look really fierce when they faced their enemies! Now, we have modern technology and tools to keep ourselves looking neat and clean. Can you imagine showing up for your Monday morning All Hands meeting with beard braids? (Actually, that could be kind of fun!) Lucky for you, you can get that ideal Viking look for your costume without depriving your barber of income when you wear this Blonde Viking Wig, Beard and Mustache. It looks wild and ready to set sail on an adventure beneath a horned helmet for Halloween!
What the "L"When you're a chess piece, the stakes are high. There aren't that many pieces out there on the board and all the pieces have to play their part just right. Pawns hop forward one step unless it's their first move of the game. The bishops zoom diagonally along however many squares they need to. The queen of each side is the boss of the chessboard, moving however she wants as long as she doesn't jump any squares. And the knights? Well, the knights know how to move. They move in an L shape to protect their side from any pieces that might cause trouble in their checkered kingdom. Product Details Are you ready to take on your knighthood? This headpiece allows you to break out of your "L" mold. The foam helmet has a soft top and a stiff visor textured to look like armor a jouster would wear.

Whether you're taking a seat at the round table or protecting the King on a chessboard, this helmet will allow you to take on the role of knight with confidence!
Antioch to the AcropolisAs time-traveling goes, zapping yourself into the ancient world of Greece or Rome would be the most enticing. Unlike most communities that existed before the 1900s, they had running water and respected the power of bathing. They had pretty advanced medical care, buildings constructed to help its residents stay cool on intense summer days, and paved roads. As long as you didn't end up in a colosseum, life would be pretty comfortable for a whole range of classes back in Rome and Greece B.C.! However, if you did happen to land your time machine smack in the middle of a colosseum fight, this is the costume that you'd want to wear when you stepped out of the machine and into the ring. With a dignified draping cape and flattering leather accents, you'll be a favorite with the crowd in no time. You might even have to go on an international ancient world tour. That sounds like fun! You'd get to see all those famous ruins when they were newly built. Just goes to show that if you're going to go back, you'd better dress to impress!Costume DetailsThis stunning ancient ensemble is Made By Us which means it was created by our in-house designers.

Beauty of the NileWho was the real power in the ancient world? Julius Caeser or Marc Antony? Please. They were men. They had some successful campaigns, but so did another highly acclaimed ruler of their time. Plus, this particular ruler had a huge advantage: Personal style. Dazzling the masses and impressing your subjects is an important part of keeping the throne. And let's be honest: A sweeping gown is much more impressive than a boring old toga. Product DetailsBegin your glittering reign when you wear your exclusive Plus Size Queen Cleopatra Costume for Women! The sleeveless dress has a bodice made of shimmery gold faux linen. Center ruching accents the flattering V neckline and continues down the hips as the bodice forms a gently draped overskirt that parts in the middle to reveal the long metallic knit underskirt. A foam-backed belt with a front drape secures around your waist, and a semi-sheer metallic knit cape fastens around your shoulders via a gold faux leather collar. Crown your costume with the golden faux leather headband! Your Majesty Is Cleopatra #goals? Definitely! It's true that she did defeat her own brother in battle and pull some underhanded tricks, but that's just "making tough decisions." She's a smart and strategic general in her own right whose reign is not to be underestimated. The only thing she wasn't exactly great about is keeping her distance from snakes. Make sure you don't get too close to anyone wearing a serpent outfit this Halloween!

He figured out lightning and crafted the first lightning rods to protect buildings from storms. He made the first bifocals, which is basically the same design that grandma uses today!

Ras to Ruins"Oh great Pharaoh, thy cartouche shall live through the ages and immortalize thy name among the peoples of Egypt for all time. O thou great Pharaoh, God-King, Ra as man, whose influence brings the Nile's nourishing floods anew each year, whose will is law, by whose word we live and die, amidst whose glory we are blessed to spend each day, and to whom we give all supplication and due honor. If it is found by thy will suitable, if perchance thine immaculate spirit should acquiesce, if indeed it were possible and if thou has the time, wouldst thou come to mine Halloween party? That would be dope."While that’s not the weirdest invite we’ve ever seen, we are still surprised that your host decided your costume for you. Still, you’ve come to the right place! Here you go, Pharaoh, your costume awaits!Product DetailsThis Adult Egyptian Tunic Costume is fitting for the main god of Egypt. The stylish foam headband with its molded vinyl cobra can be worn with or without the accompanying striped veil, as the Pharaoh desires. The belt has fabric ties and the most opulent faux leather and brocade ribbon draping on the front. The large rectangular crushed velvet can be draped in many ways across the broad shoulders of the Lord of the Nile, or the less-broad shoulders of the Lady of the Nile. The Pullover tunic has cap sleeves to give Pharaoh that extra oomph that he needs to have confidence in the morning.Oddly Shaped TombsGiant squares? Nahh. How about intricately carved likenesses of each individual? Boring. You’ve been through all the shapes, and the time to decide is now, while you're 30. That’ll give your builders enough time to put the finishing touches on your tomb before you die in 30 more years. But what shape is best? As you stab yourself in roof of your mouth with a tortilla chip, it comes to you in a flash! A giant triangle! Perfection.

Casual Knight OutDisclaimer: this helmet is bad news for jousting matches. But, it’s absolutely perfect if you have other knightly duties to perform but want to relax a little. See, knight helmets aren’t comfortable. They’re made of metal, cold, sharp metal. And if yours isn’t cold, it’s probably too hot—there really is no in-between. The point is, as a knight, you have lots to do while dressed as a knight. Whether it’s a short day, wintery day, long day, or sunny day, there’s some discomfort in store, all due to that silly helmet you have to wear. And while we highly advise donning the metal contraption for your jousting matches and whatnot, we’ve got something better for when you need it just for appearances’ sake.Product DescriptionLook like the knight in shining armor you’re meant to be, and stay comfy with this Silver Knight Plush Helmet! By doing away with metal helmet construction, this padded metallic headcover is the solution all knights have been waiting for! In addition to being soft-sculpted, this high-shine helmet is lightweight and made to fit newly recruited and veteran knights. You’ll feel so relaxed under the visor and helm, you’ll find yourself wanting to wear it whether you’re attending your king’s Accession Day tilt or laying down for a good knight’s sleep!
We surveyed a pool of 100 men to ask them what their beard means to them. This is a brief summary of our findings...Once thought of as a personal grooming choice for only mountain-men and lumberjacks, beards have made quite a comeback in recent years. Now everyone from hipsters residing in Brooklyn to philosophy professors are choosing to sport this popular trend in facial hair. The men we talked to like sporting full beards because it makes them feel powerful, rugged, hardy, and overall more masculine. "No one ever picks a bar fight with a man who's efficient at growing a beefy beard," one participant noted. "Yeah, if a beard was good enough for Abe Lincoln, then a beard is good enough for me," another participate explained.Men-in-the-making, don't worry because your ability to display a robust beard will come soon enough. Until then, wear this red viking beard to give you the macho appearance you desire. You can see what it's like to have a furry face while also enjoying your time as a kid because it goes fast. Be at ease knowing that you will truly join the beard movement some day soon!
The Hundred Dollar Founding FatherBen Franklin was one pretty smart guy. He invented bifocals, edited a newspaper and got himself on the hundred dollar bill. Have you ever seen his journals? He liked to ask all the questions. How else do you wind up flying a kite with the intent of getting struck by lightning! Okay, we still think his whole "flying a kite in the middle of a thunderstorm" idea might not have been the best idea ever since that could have really turned out badly, but he's a genius, so who are we to argue? All of humanity is now in his debt. We wouldn't want to go back to living without electricity. How would we charge our phone?Of course, history is filled with amazing stories and Ben Franklin is part of many of those American history stories. That's why we like this costume so much. It's the perfect opportunity to learn about our rich history!Product DetailsThis costume makes your little history buff look just like the legendary figure that we know so well from our books and monuments. We can't guarantee that while wearing it, he'll be inventing the glass armonica like the real Benjamin Franklin, but he will look cooler than the other kids at the next American history pageant that your child is in, and we think that's just as important as the invention of the glass armonica. It's got the felt coat with attached vest and cuffs, all in drab tones that just say the 1700s. No costume from that era would be complete without a cravat, and this has one! The knicker pants go to the knees and fit easily with elastic.Ben Franklin Costume for BoysOkay, so he's going to learn all about history while wearing this classic costume, but whatever you do don't let him go out in the thunderstorm with that kite. We already have electricity. It's all good. He can just sit back and learn the glass armonica like all the other kids are doing these days (we assume).

Revolution Rising Anyone living on North America's eastern seaboard in the Eighteenth Century is experiencing some exciting times! So much of the new continent wasn't mapped yet, which means that you could get paid to go adventuring.

And yet despite all of this excitement, you don't have a hair out of place. What's your secret? Product DetailsChannel a stalwart settler in this exclusive Deluxe Colonial Wig for Boys!

We wonder what George Washington and his fellow Colonial friends would have thought if they could wear blue jeans. It might not look quite right with a coiffed wig.

How does a post-apocalyptic coachman travel to his next steam engine convention? Why, in top-notch steampunk style, of course!We have to admit, we do not always fully “get” the steampunk aesthetic.
