I think werewolves in general are a tricky thing to get right. So many crash and burn with that one. But since your name is Edgar Frog, I'm sure you'll get it right

I hope you post pictures...

Since I'm passing out candy every year, I don't really dress up. I just accesorize--last year I wore my light up horns from an AC/DC concert. Not sure about this year. I wish someone I know would throw a big Halloween bash. I'm dying to go as one of Dracula's hot brides (the Gary Oldman Dracula).


Werewolfs can be difficult to pull off but I have never seen anyone really try it. I will post pics my costume even if I dont go as a werewolf.

Here's a blog all about making a homemade werewolf costume. I agree that they're either hit or miss, but this girl nailed it IMO.
Also all your vets, look at the author's name.

Is this the one?

If so, she did a pretty good job. Looks complicated though. I'm just happy she made the werewolf a furry one. I hate that in some werewolf movies, they aren't furry! They look more like boiled rats or something.

That's a great costume, but it looks really hot! I think about comfort when I costume, too. That's why I gave up masks years ago. I prefer make-up, face paint, etc.

It does look hot but that woman definitely gets an A for effort. I don't think I've ever seen a homemade costume, werewolf or otherwise, that is that detailed.

I got my costume on Monday.
The jersey's a little big on me, but I'd rather it be too big than too small cuz then that would be a problem, lol.
The mask however, is annoying as hell, at least for me anyway; I wear glasses, so it is not comfortable having that on over them.
So what I'm doing now is just being a female Jason without the mask I guess, haha. There is an actual female Jason costume, but it's expensive and probably wouldn't fit me, so I'm doing my own version of it. :)

I have never liked masks, although I can see that it's tough to be Jason without one. But I gave up on masks years ago. They are hot and uncomfortable and I cannot see well out of them. I much prefer make-up.

If I must wear a mask, I do a half-mask, just over the eyes, you know. I can tolerate that better.

I'll probably just sport some skeleton arm warmers that I saw at Spirit. I'm on candy duty and taking the niece around, so I'm keeping it simple and comfortable :)
