Thread: Looking to emulate a HHN costume.

Tweet

I recently went to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in Hollywood and saw the coolest costume in the 'Klowns' section of the park. It was an evil looking jester on about 3 foot stilts running around and playing jokes on people (taking their things and putting it on the roofs of shops/buildings and lauging). I would LOVE to emulate this costume but I dont know where to begin. Can someone give me a list of what I would need to pull this costume off?

Here's the best image I could find of it (Its really rough):

For stilts, look on ebay for drywall stilts. I have used them and they work great. You can use them for any tall characters you want to make. They are a little easier to walk on. Get used to them first. There are some great clown jester masks out there or just use grease paint on your face. It would certainly be cooler and if walking on stilts, easier to see where you're going. You can buy costumes made or make your own. Of course you will need to extend the legs. This material is in any materials store.

I love this idea. I can see this working out so well. Show pictures when your done.
