1. Short Brown Haired Wig

Review: "I got this man's wig for a caveman costume. It's going to work perfectly! I was surprised by how many people I fooled with photos, thinking that I was growing my hair out! But, of course, it wouldn't have worked as well in real life. But it possibly could with a little more styling." - Ken

2. Simulation Human Organ Heart Cake Mold

Review: "We're always looking for new organ candy molds for Halloween. I ordered these to make little heart shaped cakes, but they've also been perfect with hard candy melts. With y, but thick enough that I feel confident putting them in the oven. They clean up really well in warm water and mild detergent. And you get three for $9.99! Each tray makes four palm-sized treats. Perfect for Halloween and Valentine's Day XD" - Amazon Customer

3. Halloween Window Lights

Review: "Hung these in a my windows for Halloween, and I couldn’t be happier! The timer worked really well, they’re a great battery saver. Great adhesion from the suction piece; as long as you follow the directions (clean the window surface and use water on the suction piece), it suctions really well. Highly recommend!" - Lioness

4. Inflatable Ballerina-Riding-A-Flamingo Costume

Review: "Bought this for my 13 year old daughter and it was great. She got lots of compliments and loved wearing it. Easy to put on, but not the easiest to walk long distances also tip--carry an extra set of batteries because when they die on Halloween night and you are not act home you have to trick or treat for batteries:)" - Molly H
