I was at the local Halloween shop yesterday, when I noticed that one of the mannequin props flanking the doorway wasn't a mannequin at all. It was a guy in costume, coming to life and scaring people as they walked by. The costume was all black tattered cloth, with wings and a full skull mask.
But what I thought was really cool was the fact that this monster was on stilts. Enough to make him taller than everyone, and have an unnatural walk that was quite creepy. Very effective.
So this of course got me thinking of ways I might incorporate these kind of stilts to add that extra touch of bizarre to my Halloween disguise. Has anyone here ever made, bought, or used any small stilts for costume purposes?
