There are so many places to purchase costumes for Halloween, but some stand out from the rest based on their excellent selections and prices. Below is a list of the best Halloween costume stores in The Bay Area California.

House of Humor: Quoted as being "The Bay Area's Largest Costume Selection, the House of Humor is located on the liveliest strip in Redwood City, El Camino. While business booms during the Halloween season, the House of Humor supplies a variety of costumes year round.

Fun House Theatrical: The Fun House in Mountain View has it all! It's guaranteed to have every item you're looking for whether it's for Halloween or any other special event to where you have to dress up. As soon as you walk thru the door you're greeted by a collage of random costumes in all sizes. Fun House is one of the only Halloween stores that have costumes for infants. Sure a lot of stores have an infant section, but not with this top grade of costumes. Their selection of costumes range from super heroes, to terrifying werewolves and swamp things. The prosthetic and special effects section will blow your socks off literally, as they have explosive add-on's for those into creating horror projects. Speaking of horror projects, they also feature other expensive props such as crawling zombies, full sized coffins and attack alligators which can range up to $9,500. Fun House is way more than just a Halloween store though, they also carry one of the largest selections of mask and headpieces, all at discount prices.

    I'm tired of being a witch every year. Time for something new. Thanks for the reminder that Halloween is right around the corner. The early bird gets the best costume...or something like that.
