Peter Pan Costumes

The original story featuring Peter Pan was written by J.M. Barrie in the early 1900’s. The character of Peter Pan was portrayed as a boy that somehow manages to live in a world of perpetual boyhood, mysteriously refusing to grow up. Peter Pan spends his days having various adventures with all sorts of mystical and magical creatures, bringing along his gang of other perpetually young guys, known as the Lost Boys. Peter has well known encounters with Pirates, (the most infamous being Captain Hook) mermaids, fairies, (like the mischievous and jealous Tinkerbell) Indians and a few real-world children that occasionally get entangled in Peter’s shenanigans. The story of Peter Pan has been made into an animated Disney movie and another feature film made by Steven Spielberg entitled “Hook” which tells the story of Peter’s brave encounters with the dreaded pirate Captain Hook.

A wonderful Halloween costume idea would be to recreate several of the characters from Peter Pan’s adventurous movies or tales and bring to life the fanciful cast from the story of Peter Pan. Peter Pan didn’t want to grow up and this Halloween, neither should you!
