Frightful Fashions
Warning: These action-packed costumes may transport you to another world—which might not be a bad thing.
- Cobra Kai: It's the modern day Karate Kid. It’s no surprise the top costume comes from the popular Netflix TV series, which is based on the beloved 1984 movie and stars original Karate Kid actors, Ralph Macchio and William Zabka renewing their 36-year-old rivalry. This costume, loved by young and old, will leave you kicking and screaming your way into Halloween.
- Dungeon Master: Taking on the role of Dungeon Master is no simple task. If you’re a fan of Dungeons and Dragons, you’re going to love this costume. Command respect when you enter the room (physically or virtually) and get ready to challenge your participants.
- The Mandalorian: Step into the shoes of Din Djarin, the lone bounty hunter. This costume is inspired by the first live-action series of Star Wars on Disney+ and will allow you to safely explore other galaxies (or rooms in your house). Get ready, fans, season 2 premieres Oct. 30, making for the perfect stay-at-home Halloween activity.
