You can’t tell me that Star Trek with its original series that was first shown on TV screens in black and white over 40 years ago isn’t on to something. There has been a new movie release in May 2009. What is even more amazing are the people who grew up with the series, these are the same people who are now taking their children/grandchildren to the movies. With Star Trek phenomenon I can see that this will go on for perhaps another 40 years!
Star Trek is a show to which the whole family can relate whether it’s Voyager, Deep Space Nine or the original series. Fans of Star Trek are eager to become their favourite characters and costumes are a fun and affordable way to entertain those kids. Not just for Halloween anymore, costumes are a great way for kids to act out their favourite movie and television scenes or make up their own stories.
Star Trek t shirts worn by crew in the first Star Trek series were red, gold or blue in color. The red t shirts were the attire of the star ship command officers, gold t shirts were the apparel of crew in engineering, operations and security personnel, and blue t shirts were the uniform of science and medicine crew members. These are great Halloween costumes.
* Red Shirts: This particular top became famous as the uniform shirt for security officers.
* Science & Medical: The officers of the science and medicine departments were known to wear blue shirts in both the original TV series and in the film. (Light blue in the series and darker blue in the movie.)
* Command & Helm: Even though the shirts were officially green, they looked gold or beige on the screen.
Maybe your preference is for the original Star Trek series in which case you can choose one of the costumes from that early series. Just pick the right color of shirt and a pair of black pants and you have the basic components of your costume. If your preference runs to one of the later Star Trek series, or one of the movies, you can obtain costumes from any of these also at online costume suppliers.
A variety of Star Trek accessories can be purchased to add to the realistic appearance of the Spock uniform, and these accessories will add greatly to the costume. You can have vinyl plastic Spock ears which will neatly fit over your ears. Star Trek Phaser guns are certainly very realistic and look decidedly deadly. Also available are electronic communicators and the lately added Tricorder which add much to Star Trek uniforms.
Which series did you like the most? Deep Space Nine, The Next Generation, Voyager, or The Original Series. Which costume should you choose?
Whether you’re headed to Comic Con, a Halloween costume party, or a science fiction convention, there are Star Trek costumes that is just for you. Star Trek outfits and uniforms come in many colors and sizes for you to choose from.
People are always looking for new costume ideas each time that Halloween rolls around. I guess variety is the spice of life and what better way to have a spicy Halloween party than come in a truly unique costume. One such unique idea is the Viking costume.

Vikings stand out from many of the other peoples of that time because they traveled and colonized large parts of Europe and places like Iceland and Greenland. There are even theories that they may have settled on the North American continent. Often they would use force to colonize new lands, such as Britain and Ireland.

Consequently they were perceived as warrior like and fierce. But they also had a complex society and elaborate spiritual component to their lives. For instance, many of the legends and creatures that inhabit the Lord of the Rings books, like Elves, Dwarfs and Trolls take their cue from Norse mythology. Gandalf is uncannily similar to pictorial representations of Odin, the king of Norse gods. They had many gods and complex theology.
Viking fancy dress is a really fun and original way to dress up for the upcoming Halloween party. Just as those viking raiding parties got the locals attention all those years ago, so will you if you turn up to the party in one of these awesome Nordic outfits.

Viking Halloween costumes come in many different forms, so much so that there are now even specialist viking fancy dress websites online that you can go to in order to find an outfit that is just right for you.
But don’t make the mistake of thinking that this costume is just exclusively available for guys because there are a lot of Viking costumes that would look just as great on any other woman. Women could wear the same look that guys wear or they could go for a sexier Viking look by wearing dresses and skirts that could make any guy fall on their feet.
More elaborate Viking costumes will have a few more elements, such as arm and leg guards. Maybe even a shield. You might also have a cape. The elaborate costume is a decent approximation of the authentic Viking costume (although many people dispute that Vikings ever wore cow horn helmets) but in terms of Halloween there are other things to consider.
Other popular Viking style costumes, include the Men’s Viking Costume and the Nordic Viking Deluxe Costume. Both of these costumes, have their own individual designs. They provide an alternative spin on the traditional costumes made popular by this era. Any costume you choose, will provide the appearance you want to achieve through your Viking theme.

The character is played by Cassandra Peterson, who has performed as basically no other character since the introduction of Elvira. She was in the Fellini semi-auto-biographical flick, Roma, in the seventies and was a member of the LA based Groundlings (of Pee Wee Herman Fame), but really what this-now 58 year old-woman is known for is her portrayal of the ever sexy, Elvira. Certainly you want to look your best in your next costume and with form fitting black and tons of make-up how could you possibly look bad? I guess if all goes wrong you can always tell everyone it’s a zombie costume, but the chances of not looking sexy in an Elvira costume are quite slim. Quite slim, indeed.

The character of Elvira epitomises what Halloween is about – dark, spooky and frightening. Dressing in black gothic style clothing such as Elvira’s is a great way to have fun at your Halloween party. Other great costume ideas are gothic vampires or one of my favorites, Morticia from the Addams Family. Even Morticia’s name is great for Halloween as it is derived from “mortis” the Latin word for “death”. In fact she does look like she is dead with her very pale skin and long black hair.
