The Grace of a GoddessMany of us have enjoyed dressing up as princesses at least once in our lives. Perhaps a regal dress paired with a tiara was even your go-to costume as a child! While there's certainly nothing wrong with continuing to wear those outfits as an adult, maybe you're looking for an outfit that better reflects your grown-up grace and sophistication. Sounds like a goddess costume might be just the upgrade you need!In our opinion, there's nothing better than a Greek goddess costume to help you feel elegant. The flowing robes with intricate details and gold accents create a classic, luxurious style that helps elevate anyone to Mt. Olympus status!Design & DetailsOur Classic Greek Goddess Costume is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to feel simply divine! This beautiful set starts with a dress that features a plunging neckline and asymmetrical hemline. It's made of comfortable knit fabrics and secures in the back with hook and loop fastener.A separate piece attaches to the dress at the shoulder and hip with hook and hoop fastener to provide extra draping and detail. Once you tie the gold belt to suit your style and slip on the elastic arm bands with even more draped fabric, you'll be ready to show off your goddess-like grace!A Gathering of GreeksOur Classic Greek Goddess Costume for Adults lends itself perfectly to a group costume!

Maybe you're thinking of dressing up like a king or a queen, envisioning heaping piles of coinage and blackbird pies. But that's not what being a ruler is really like! When you're the wealthiest and most powerful person in the realm, you're everybody's first call when something breaks and they need help fixing it. You're not just some fancypants prancing around in their puffy sleeves and twinkling crown: you're like a well-dressed 24/7 plumbing service. And Renaissance plumbing is not something you want to have to fix, no matter what you're wearing!So we made this fine Noble Renaissance Man Costume for people who crave a life of leisure. Sure, somebody wearing an outfit like this probably doesn't bathe in coffers overflowing with gold florins. But they also don't have people knocking on their door at all hours because a kitty cat or pigheaded goat is stuck in a tree again, and nobody else can afford a ladder. A Noble Renaissance Man like this is free to tend his modest parcel of land or become learned, to play chess or train in swordsmanship. Or all of the above!And maybe he's not covered in gold and jewels like the chump wearing the crown, but we figured that this guy would still have some pretty stylish clothes. So we made his tunic and bonnet out of velvet. Then we lined his cape with satin, and fastened it with a flashy golden chain. We even threw in some great-looking boot covers and stuck a feather in his cap for good measure. It's a complete look, ready for a costume party or Renaissance Faire!
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!
All hail the Empress!People tell you all the time that you have a queenly beauty. You brush them off. Who wants to have queen like beauty when you can have empress like power? Beauty is nothing in comparison to power. You could have anything you want at your beck, and call if you were an empress. Besides you are already beautiful.And if you are going to be an empress, why not be a Roman empress? Rome was kind of awesome. There were lavish parties thrown by the rich. They would dine on fresh fruit, and sip the wine of their country. Often times lounging as they ate and drank their fill. They sat talking of the goings on of Rome. All the best gossip of war, hedonism, and betrayal.For a woman who already possess the beauty of a queen, we have this Roman Empress Costume so you can not only have beauty, but power as well. You will be kept fairly busy as a ruler of Rome, but maybe you can have the Senate take care of the business of state. While you lounge with your friends. Eating grapes, and drinking wine. Just be sure to keep a dagger on you at all times. Romans are a crafty bunch who sometimes over throw their leaders. You don't want to be the next Caesar, saying "Et tu, Brute?"
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears. You see, I have a grill full of burgers, brats, and hot dogs. And the meal just wouldn't be right without some corn on the cob! So, go on, send me those ears of corn!Yeah, we're playing. But, all kidding aside, this Roman Senator costume is the real deal. It features all the historical details that a typical dude would wear in ancient Rome (or at least our best approximation of what they would wear). Yeah, it was toga time for them, and this tunic and cape combo gives you that classic toga style, so much so that you'd be ready to make a big ol’ speech at the Roman Forum! Make your pretend trip to ancient Rome, and you can be political as a senator, or just enjoy partying as an upstanding citizen of the empire. Heck, you could even be the Emperor if you were so inclined! Whatever you do, as long as you focus on getting your friends to give you their ears, well, you’ll be all set.We made and designed this costume right here in our HalloweenCostumes.com studio. We also have this costume available in sizes for kids, and plenty of women’s costumes to coordinate it with too! What can we say, we’re basically your one stop shop for ancient Rome. Now go on, get your costume on, and get that grill fired up!
Prehistoric PartyWe’ve come a long way from the prehistoric era when the first cave people roamed the wilds. They were busy hunting Wooley mammoths, learning to cook with fire, and painting beautiful depictions of, well, their hunts in the Lascaux caves of France. In just a slight contrast, we bide our time by curating our social media feeds and ordering burritos to our living room via an app. I suppose we can’t look down on our primitive ancestors for being so primitive, though. We all ought to celebrate the ones who figured the basics out so we could live so lavishly. Naturally, we suggest a prehistoric costume. If you really identified with BamBam while watching the Flintstones, this Bold Cavewoman Costume for Women is probably your fit!Design & DetailsMade By Us in our own design studios, our in-house team crafted this intricate costume with care in each and every stitch.

Accessories like the club are sold separately, so make sure you check those out. We definitely recommend them to complete your look!Keep it Cave CoolSo if you’re up for some clubbing… you know, the kind with less EDM and more blunt force, grab that accessory, learn to swing it, and rock this Bold Cavewoman Costume. It will be a good respite from the usual luxuries. There are only so many burritos you can order directly to your living room, so many new movies you can stream to your tablet computer, so many surprise boxes of makeup you can order pre-curated to your front door before you need to get in touch with your wild side.
What is so entrancing about ancient Egypt? A land so mysterious and beautiful that archaeologists are still trying to understand it now. Everything from the stories of Pharaohs and the building of the pyramids fascinate scientists and great story tellers alike.

The flowing dresses, arm bands, and elaborate headdresses. The way the Egyptian royalty held themselves. Slip on this Egyptian Armband and take the throne. You can choose if you want to be a benevolent Queen or if you'd rather workers fanning you with palm leaves and feeding you grapes. We'er sure that in 100 years archaeologists are going to be just as fascinated with your reign. Songs and stories will be told of your beauty and grand palace.
Sam Adams had enough on his hands in day-to-day colonial America, and with the prospect of a revolution, he had a pretty full plate. Luckily he knew a certain silversmith who had the tools to get the job done.He may not be a silversmith, but you kiddo is a major history buff--it’s by far his favorite school subject.

He’ll be so stately, strutting around your abode and proclaiming left and right, riding his “horse” with the wind through the backyard, sending signals by flashlight to his best bud across the street--one blink if they’ll meet at the park tomorrow (land); two blinks if they’ll meet at the pool (sea). He’s clever, your little patriot. And who wouldn’t heed his warnings? He looks so dapper, so dependable, so...well...revolutionary! This costume comes complete with a jacket and vest combo, knee pants, even a cravat and and the iconic hat! Give him some big buckle shoes, a pair of knee socks, and dig up that lantern out of the garage. Just a final hint of advice from us, though: lock up the tea cabinet…

THE RULER OF THE THRONEEveryone is always trying to convince everyone else that they have the true right to the throne. They might yammer on about who their father was or how many titles they hold. (Bonus points for extra adjectives.) Perhaps they are just denouncing the current monarchy and proclaiming (rather dangerously in the public of a tavern) that they would be far better on the throne than those currently crowned upon it! But, you know where the real power in the kingdom happens to lay. You watch as everyone comes to you—low-born, noble, knight, and knave alike! It is neither gold nor steel nor red or blue blood that makes the wheel turn in this world. It's the ale, the wine, and especially the secrets that spill in your tavern!

THAT OTHER THRONEJust remember: if anyone questions your power in your own tavern-house, you have the ability to whisper the right words to lead them to the throne. And, failing that, you can give them a sour drink and keep them on the other one all night!

Senusret I ushered in an era of peace and prosperity and helped irrigate Faiyum to provide more farmable land in his kingdom.

It’s well know that kids are friggen inquisitive. They can ask so many Why or What’s that questions per hour that they’ll either turn into geniuses or witness the decline of the focus of their interrogation from good-intentioned human fast into maddened and whimpering folk, curling for protection in the fetal position in a corner.

You get to be master of challenging the pantheon of Greek gods to a game of volleyball. You probably could even get the honorary title of Marco Polo champion.Yes, being the Greek “God of the Sea” certainly must come with its perks. It’s really quite a shame that you weren’t born into the pantheon… but maybe there’s another way for you to enjoy being the ruler of the sea.Design & DetailsThis adult Poseidon costume turns you into the one and only master of the seas.

Combine it all together and no one will question your seat on the throne at the bottom of the ocean. Just make sure you pick up one of our trident accessories to put the finishing touch on your transformation into Poseidon!Poseidon Costume for MenThere's never been a better time to jump into the sea! By why just take a swim when you can rule the entire ocean?

Whatever you like most about this costume, you'll look good no matter where your adventure takes you!

Best Curse EverThe fact that Medusa was cursed (very unfairly, in our opinion) meant that she had to leave everyone she knew behind and make a new home for herself in solitude. She found an uninhabited Mediterranean island where she made friends with a bunch of snakes and set up a small castle.Then she kicked back and enjoyed that fresh Mediterranean breeze. With some nice, fresh fish and the ability to spend her time as she wished, she was in pretty good spirits until that Perseus came along. We almost wish someone would curse us and force us to live on a private island in one of the most beautiful places on Earth!Product DetailsMaking sure you are dressed right for any occasion is very important, which is why we recommend setting yourself up right with this Women's Medusa Queen of the Gorgons Costume.

Diety DramaIf there's one thing we know about the ancient gods, they love a bit of drama. Whether it was love or war, they couldn't help getting involved in mortal trouble. They blessed those that entertained them the most, watching as we humans launched ships and attacked lands simply because the most beautiful woman in the world left her husband. Knowing what we know about the gods, it's safe to say they love reality television. They no longer need to meddle in our affairs, we broadcast them for all the world to see. That's nice for everyone in Olympus but we can't help but feel that we're missing out. Wouldn't it be nice if the gods came down and stirred up some good old-fashioned deity drama every once in a while?Costume DetailsThis brilliant gold and white Greek God costume is perfect for making an entrance worthy of Olympus. The costume includes a lightweight toga trimmed in gold. The elastic waistline is disguised with a golden sash.

And remember, whatever god you're dressing up as, just don't forget to bring the drama!
Drinks at the SphinxA night out in ancient Egpyt was really something. Cleopatra and her girls would apply their perfect cat eyes, put on their best wigs, and dust their bodies in gold before calling a Lift to pick them up. No, we didn't spell that wrong. We mean they called a Lift, they each got on they own liter and let their muscley servants carry them around. And the night clubs were awesome. For brunch, they could sit on palace rooftops and sip from goblets as they watched boats go by on the Nile. Then they could do a floating spa in the Red Sea. And in the evening they could go to a lovely gala in between the paws of the great Sphinx, now that's atmosphere!Product DetailsWant a bright costume that seems to suit your royal Egyptian state? It features a strapless dress that's ruched down the front to flatter and fit your figure. The dress is belted with a satin-textured blue fabric and has a gold geometric pattern throughout.

This look is perfect when paired with plenty of gold accessories. From chining sandals from our catalog to the lovely gold hoops that might already be a part of your wardrobe, you can tweak this costume to fit your personality. Now all you need to do is figure out who you want in your entourage. Choose wisely cause we hear Marc Anthony is interested in heading to the Sphinx on Halloween night!
Is your kid fascinated by Egyptian mythology? Do you notice his eyes light up whenever the pyramids are featured on TV? Pretty understandable, through the ages, the Egyptians left a multitude of mysterious tombs and temples scattered across the desserts. From the iconic pyramids to the weird temples that held thousands of mummified dogs, the Egyptians have amazed and confused us so many times. We have to wonder, what else is out there hidden by the literal sands of time? When looking at Egyptian art we see a powerful character come up again and again. Anubis, the God of the underworld is the guy that keeps those no good mummies from returning from their crypts. From seeing the care the Egyptians took with their tombs and necropolises we know that a good afterlife was pretty important to them, so it's no wonder why they took such care to honor this God with the head of a jackal. Anubis kept the busy world of Egyptian afterlife running smoothly, after death he'd guide the souls of the embalmed to their rightful place, as long as everything in the tomb seemed above board. So, though your child may seem intimidating when he dresses up as Anubis, he is dressing up as one of the good gods. Though he sometimes showed up as a full-on jackal, this costume portrays Anubis in his humanoid form, which is both more commonly portrayed and much easier to dress as. The gold, black, and turquoise colors of the neck and headpiece gives the costume the regal appearance that Anubis would expect. Topped off with a show-stopping jackal mask, this Anubis costume cuts quite an imposing figure. Those Halloween mummies won't dare cross this guard dog.
WHO MIGHT YOU BE?The best part of being in a medieval world is that you could be anyone. Of course, that's also part of what makes the whole thing just a little scary. That cheerful lad down the street running a market cart and trying his best to be proud about day-old muffins? He's actually an assassin waiting to deliver the poisoned bread to a noblewoman! That dirty-faced tavern lass sweeping dry mud from the floor for the sixth time today? A princess hiding from her father's guard! So, when we heard that there was someone new in town, our interest was understandably piqued. Which role in our medieval village will you fill with your seemingly simple appearance? Are you the happy tavern-goer just glad that you have enough silver in your pouch to put your feet up? Do you have ambitions to wed one of the nobility and join the ranks of high society? Are you secretly a wizard in regular clothing, muttering your magics under your breath? DESIGN & DETAILSSet out on your fantastic destiny in a world gone by with this Medieval Merry Man Costume. This look was put together by our own team of design wizards and features a one-piece tunic that casts the illusion of being layered. The ivory jersey sleeves are full and loose. For a clever crafting trick, they are sewn a couple of inches under the sleeveless tunic so it looks like you're fully garbed. Brown cord lacing gives the tunic a period look while the belt and loose-fit pants complete the theme! TIME TO MAKE HISTORYWhen you're dressed like you were part of an older time, it is up to you to decide exactly how everything went down. We can't wait to hear about the stories that you told with this costume. Best part is that with this costume's high-quality construction, there are several tales to be told!
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. The costume features a jersey knit cape accented with a brass coin. A kilt trimmed in a geometric gold pattern is secured with a hook and loop fastener at the back. Faux leather gauntlets slip over your forearms for a tough, battle-ready look. B.C. BraveryAre you ready to bring a touch of the B.C. era to your next costumed event? This high-quality look is a great choice. Complete your look with gladiator props from our collection. From a sword and shield or the tough spear pictured, you'll feel strong and brave once you're all decked out. Step into your next costumed event with brave B.C. style!

All's Well That Ends WellWhen you were a kid, the adventures of Laura Ingalls Wilder seemed so real. When the Wilder family was sugaring off, you could almost taste the maple syrup, hot from the stove. And you could feel the excitement when Pa came back from the woods talking about a big bear that he had seen in the brambles... even if it was actually a simple dead log, it sent quivers of delightful fear to your head.Oh, the trundle beds with layers of quilts, the hot cast iron stove, the covered wagons, the fiddle music, and let's not forget the sweet pioneering dog, Jack! All of that once felt like it happened to you. Then you grew up, and it feels sort of distant somehow. It's all the modern trappings that have gotten in the way! But never fear, as Ma would say, "All is well that ends well". Now you've got access to this Laura Ingalls Wilder costume, that long-lost land of prairie adventure is at hand!Design & DetailsThis pretty blue dress brings to mind the simple yet cozy settings of The Little House on The Prairie series. The bodice of the gown has bronze buttons down the front, a high neck collar, and gently puffed sleeves. The gown zips up the back to make changing into this costume nice and easy. The floor-length gown has pleats at the waist for a flattering and historically picturesque fit.On the WagonDo you want to bring the past to life? This Laura Ingalls Wilder costume is a great way to bring the pioneer lifestyle to life! Top it off with a wide-brimmed bonnet, picnic basket, or even a crisp white apron to perfect your adventurous old-fashioned character. And once you're done, if you ask nice, maybe Pa will even fiddle you a couple dancing tunes!
Punk'dLooking to get into the wild world of Steampunk? It can really seem pretty daunting.

Sweet Sky SailingWant to hear our hot take on flying? We think the idea of airplanes has held back our imagination when it comes to flying? Before the Wright Brothers took their flying contraption in the air, the skies were much more capricious! Victorians were floating around in colorful air balloons and inventing machines like the (admittedly dangerous) zeppelin. But what if we went back to ideation mode? You could become the pilot of a hovering bubble that free-floated 10 feet in the air. Or you could zoom through the sky in a bird puppet formed from wax paper and lightweight wires. The ideas don't have to work, you just have to dream it up! Inspire your wild pilot costume with exciting accessories like this pair of rainbow goggles!Product DetailsThis cool pair of goggles is ready to fly! Strapping onto the head with a wide strip of length-adjustable elastic, the goggles are lined with foam for comfort.

This costume accessory easily pairs with traditional pilot costumes or a steampunk ensemble for an updated take on your hot air balloon day dreams!
Not So Fast, Prince John Once upon a time, jolly old England wasn't so jolly anymore. Good King Richard was off fighting the Crusades, and while he was gone, his evil brother Prince John stepped in to rule the country with a greedy hand. His idea of public reform was "Get the Sheriff of Nottingham to collect ALLLL the taxes," which had the general public feeling a little resentful, to say the least. But what he didn't count on was a vigilante hero whose main goal was to take care of the general public and have a hilariously fun time doing it. Product DetailsLook every inch the dashing outlaw in this exclusive Deluxe Robin Hood Costume for Men! The long tunic is designed to look like a sleeveless vest worn over long-sleeved, cream-colored shirt. The "vest" portion is made of brown faux suede, has decorative lacing at the chest, and a dagged hemline studded with brass-tone rivets. A short green cape (with a hood, of course!) ties at your neck. Buckle the brown faux leather belt around your waist and slip on the faux leather wrist guards before you sneak into Sherwood Forest. Merry Men Madness You have to love a folk hero who's awesome but doesn't take himself seriously. Robin Hood basically started a secret club full of his best friends, with cool uniforms and code names, and then pranked the Prince and the Sheriff's men until they were completely demoralized. Get your own band of Merry Men together to form a group costume or be the star of your own legend thanks to this amazing costume!
You’ve heard the quotes and references, but, with Halloween around the corner, it is important to reiterate… just in case trouble is on the line and strange and exotic gatekeeping creatures demand to know: When someone asks if you are a god, what do we say!? You know the answer, so there is no need to belabor that any further. However, knowing the right answer isn’t enough. You have to be able to articulate that answer with confidence What kind of god? What powers? Over which domain do you rule?These are the big questions and the road to divinity is a very important one. Our suggestion is to go with a group of gods who have a lot of experience and still know how to have a good time with the mortals. Off to Mount Olympus, then, to learn about the proper protocol, hierarchy, and your rights and responsibilities as a Greek Goddess. Spooked? Ha, don’t worry. The Greek Gods are quite casual about everything, so long as you don’t muddle up their own machinations.With that handled, it is time to don your divine garb of the Women’s Greek Goddess costume. You’ll be right at home with Aphrodite and Athena in this glorious ombré gradient, floor-length, sleeveless dress that blends from cream to teal from top to bottom. As lovely as that is, alone, the accents are what truly make these cloths majestic. A gold braid edged V-neck and O-rings at each shoulder are matched by the gold leaf headpiece, all of which make for a clear marker of your divinity. So, the new question: Of what are you a goddess? … That one might take a bit longer, so we suggest you pick wine.
Southern charmWhile there was a lot wrong with the antebellum South, one thing they got right was the ladies’ beautiful fashions. These women took “go big or go home” to an all new level, with hoop skirts so wide that they sometimes couldn’t even walk through the door! Sometimes, five whole yards of fabric were needed for the voluminous skirts, and it could take days of work to create a complete outfit.Then, when a stylish belle finally received her dress, it was quite another process to actually put it on. There were the undergarments, the petticoats, the crinolines, the hoops, the underskirt… and the dreaded corset! All that had to go on first before the gown could even put worn. Then there was the detachable collar and all the accessories, like flowers for your hair and beautiful jewelry. We guess southern belles really knew how to suffer for fashion!Product DetailsThankfully, your charming southern belle doesn’t have to worry about trading comfort for style at her next ball with this beautiful Kid’s Lovely Southern Belle Costume. (It’s all there in the name!) This exclusive costume features dark pink flowers in an all over print on a lighter pink background.

A KNIGHT OF WHICH REALM?Just because a martial fighter wears a set of armor doesn't mean that anyone knows anything for sure about them. Without a set of pretty clear heraldry, they could be anybody. And, especially if they pull the helm over their head? Well, then you've got practically zero chance. How else do you think that the lady warriors, lowborn fighters, and royal heirs alike prove themselves in jousts only to reveal their face amidst the gasps of the crowd!?Knights come in all types from the armored assassin, chivalric rider, dragon hunter, or royally anointed ser. But which will you be? Are you part of an order of proud paladins who face down darkness at every turn? Maybe one of those round table knights of Camelot legend! Perhaps you'll be a lone ronin with a tragic and complicated backstory that so few of the monsters you face are willing to wait and listen to... (Or are you just hunting for a shrubbery?)DESIGN & DETAILSNo matter which tale you hold in your heart, you must gird your form with proud armor! Our own smiths suffered apprenticeships with Wayland the Weird, himself, just to ensure that this high-quality and shiny armor would meet your mettle with this Royal Knight Costume. Begin with a tunic of silver mesh worn under a complete set of shiny foam-backed plates that cover your torso, hips, and collar. The matching leg covers fit with elastic while the gloves and helmet finish your knightly armor. Complete the look with your foam pauldrons and the attached red cape and you might not even need your sword and horse! (Who are we kidding? You'll want a sword. The horse might be more difficult to get into the adventuring party.)WHAT'S YOUR KNIGHTLY NAME?Once you've got your flawless knight style and backstory figured out, you will need your name! What title (and how many of them you have) is almost as important as which vicious beasts you've beaten. We recommend something like Ser Belvedere of the Grand Lochs, Champion of the Crusade, Beater of Beasts, and Taker of Names.
So you're off to battle the dragon, eh? Well good for you! Our only question is this: how good is your sword?A fighter is nothing without a good blade. How is a swordsman or woman supposed to guard the realm, save the king, and defeat hoards of monsters without a good blade? Without a sword how can they duel for honor, defend themselves, and impressively wave the shiny thing about? Quite simply: they can't.So if you're a Lord, a knight, a shield maiden, or just some average Joe who's having a troll problem in his backyard, make sure you get your hands on a Royal Knight's Sword. This baby is 42" long with a 7" grip and is great tool for walloping on any baddies that come your way. It's sure to get your point across.
Legendary Pest ControlGot monsters in your neighborhood and don't know what to do? Fear no more, Hercules has it covered! This hero takes down Nemean lions in a matter of minutes. Is a nine-headed Hydra mucking up your city's sewer system? Hercules knows what to do. From multi-headed hounds to ferocious riddle-loving felines, this home-town hero has got you covered! What's that? Modern monsters on your hands? We're sure our hero can smooth out your community. All for the low, low price of your admiration and adoration. And really, who could turn this charmer down? He'll head to Hades and back just for a great review. So next time there are fire-belching wolves roaming your streets or dog-sized scorpions scaling your walls, give this hero a call and they'll have nowhere to run. Thanks, Hercules!Product DetailsWe're happy to welcome Hercules into our modern era with this officially licensed Disney costume. Straight out of the hit cartoon, this costume is simple to throw on so that you'll be ready to take down any cruel creatures that come your way! The tunic is belted with a lighting motif in the middle to show off this demi-god's origins. It has a blue cape attached to the back and is finished off with faux leather gauntlets to keep you safe while fighting off the beasties. Hunk-cules HappeningsDisney's version of the epic hero Hercules is a lot more admirable than the one written about in Greek mythology. Sure, he might not always listen to his animal companions when it comes to trusting that "damsel in distress". But wouldn't his Olympian dictated trials have been a little dry if it weren't for Meg's antics? And in the end, Hercules made it out on top. So this Halloween, bring Hercules back to take care of any monsters that might crop up in your neighborhood. Let's just hope he can tell the difference between a store-bought ghoul and one that's sent from the gods!
