HALLOWEEN COSTUMES: Topical Costumes Popular

Business is picking up at the Theatrical Shop in Valley Junction.

Employees say anything that has been popular in the last few months is a costume.

GOP Candidate Mitt Romney mentioned Big Bird in a debate, and now that’s selling quickly.  If that’s what you’re looking for, the shop says it just got a new stash.

Besides political themed costumes, super heroes are big, as are movie characters.

Another popular option is couple or group costume like The Wizard of Oz.  You can do it with four people or get over a dozen involved in the theme.

The Theatrical Shop allows customers to rent or buy costumers.  It’ll likely cost you between $20 and $60 to get all decked out.
