We Love Disney!

Every little girl dreams of being a princess and where else can you find the most popular princess characters than Disney.  Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, Ariel, Jasmine and Aurora are characters that every girl can relate to.  I know my sisters and I were all princesses at one time or another for Halloween and I think most women can say the same thing.

Disney sure makes it easy with all the wonderful characters not only in their big screen movies, but on the Disney Channel as well.  I know I’ve seen some wonderful characters trick-or-treating from these movies:

  • The Lion King
  • Toy Story
  • Monsters Inc
  • Power Rangers
  • 101 Dalmations

And the list goes on and on.  I remember last year my niece wanted to be Hannah Montana so badly that she just couldn’t believe that her mom could not find the costume anywhere because it sold out so quickly.  That’s why you may think it’s way too early to even think about a Halloween costume, but I’m telling you it’s not. 

I don’t know about you, but my daughters could not get enough of High School Musical last year.  They must have watched the original and High School Musical 2 a dozen times.  Did you know that the original musical was released on January 20, 2006 and was one of the most successful Disney Channel Original Movies produced.  The film’s soundtrack was the best-selling album that year.  According the USA Today, the Nielsen ratings reported that on August 17, 2007, 17.2 million viewers tuned in to watch the premier of High School Musical 2 on the Disney Channel making it the most watched cable telecast in history.  Well guess what all you High School Musical fans?  This year on October 24, Disney will be releasing “High School Musical 3: Senior Year” and it will be the first film in the series to open not on the Disney Channel but on the big screen in movie theaters!  Since 2006 Disney has kept all the star characters of this franchise, Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay, Ryan, Chad and Taylor top selling costumes for Halloween and it looks like they’re going to do it again this year!

So whether you like a traditional classic princess or superhero costume or a more “hip” costume like Hannah Montana or High School Musical, Disney has it all!

Summer Blockbuster Movies

If your children are like mine, they base their Halloween costume on whatever character catches their fancy over the summer.  Last year a few of them were Hannah Montana, The Simpsons, Shrek the Third, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean and Spider Man 3.  As we all know, huge trends for Halloween costumes are geared toward characters from movies that are released over the summer.  Here are just a few of the big summer blockbuster movies being released this year that will definitely be huge costume sellers at Halloween Express over the coming months:

Iron Man – “Heroes Aren’t Born – They’re Made”

Speed Racer – “Go, Speed Racer, Go”

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian – “A New Age Has Begun”

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – “The Adventure Continues”

Kung Fu Panda – “Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting”

Hellboy II: The Golden Army – “Humanity’s Only Hope”

The Dark Knight – “Gotham Needs You”

Horton Hears a Who – “One Elephant, One World, One Story”

The Incredible Hulk – “Our Only Hope is Something Incredible”

You Can Be a Superhero!

How cool would it be to be a Superhero for a day?  Well, now you can – at least for Halloween.  What better character to play than one that has super powers and strength?  Ok, you might not get the super power thing, but you can still put on the costume and look just like the Superhero of your choice!  There are so many different costumes and sizes that just about everyone from a toddler to an adult can be a Superhero.  Because there’s so many to choose from they’re great for individual, couple and group costumes.  You could have a whole family of Superheroes – even your dog can find a superhero costume!

Wonder Woman:  For all you women out there that feel you play the role of Wonder Woman all the time with going to work, raising kids, doing the laundry, cleaning, making dinners, etc…, why not actually be Wonder Woman in full gear for the night and get the respect you deserve?    Wonder Woman Halloween Costume   

Supergirl:  This is the woman who keeps Superman in line.  Why should he get to have all the fun?  Super Girl Halloween Costume

Batgirl:  This is one sexy Batgirl costume!  Once again, Batman’s better half.  Bat Girl Halloween Costume

Masked Beauty:  If Zorro had a gorgeous seductive female counterpart this would be her.  Mystery Hero Halloween Costume

But, hey let’s not forget about the guys!  Besides your everyday fantastic Superheroes such as, Superman, Spiderman and Batman you have a few Superheroes you don’t hear about that often.  But believe me when you put on any of the following costumes, no one will be forgetting them any time soon.

Captain America  Captain America Halloween Costume

The Incredible Hulk   Hulk Halloween Costume

What’s great about these costumes is that most of them come in child sizes too.  Check out all our Superheroes costumes for adults/teens and children.  This Halloween you can be one of the good guys!
