My Other "Halloweenie" Lenses 

Elphaba Costume from Wicked the Musical

Loathing. Unadultrated loathing. For your face, your voice, your clothing. Now some might say that Elphaba's costume is simply the same as The Wicked Witch of the West from the MGM Musical. And while there are similarities, there are also stark differ...

Disney Villains

Recently, on a trip to Walt Disney World around Halloween, I was unsurprised to see that the line to get a photo with Maleficent, the malicious witch from Sleeping Beauty, was filled with eager adults. I wasn't surprised because, well, I was one of t...

The Haunted Mansion

Remember the first time you rode The Haunted Mansion? I was a kid, so naturally, I covered my eyes (read: wimp). This lens is dedicated to what many consider to be Walt Disney's pet Imagineering project. Note: This lens has nothing to do with the Eddi...

Elizabeth Swann Costume - Pirates of the Caribbean

If you have seen any of the Pirates of the Caribbean films, no doubt, you have marveled at Elizabeth Swann's many amazing costumes. This lens is an introduction to each of the costumes so that you might either be able to construct them yourself or fi...

300 the Movie Costumes for Halloween

Seriously, who doesn't want to be King Leonidas or Queen Gorgo for Halloween? The movie 300 was easily one of the most successful films of 2007 and it's no mystery why people are trying to snap up cool costumes that resemble those in the movie. Well,...
