Scary Tree Child Costume

On the Scariest Things Ever list, trees are probably somewhere between “gerbils” and “milk that’s a day past its expiration date.” People that agree with that, though, clearly haven’t run into the right trees, yet. Let your little one show them how scary trees can be in this spooky Scary Tree Costume!

At first glance, there isn’t much difference between a scary tree and a run-of-the-mill tree. They both grow out of the ground, provide shade on warm days, and last for centuries. Oftentimes, the “scary” side of trees doesn’t come out except in specific situations, like during a thunderstorm, or a very intense Easter egg hunt. Even then, you may not find a tree particularly threatening, because it’s rooted in the ground. What’s it going to do, wave gently in the breeze until you get bored enough to wander over to it? Nice try, Scary Tree, but we’re not falling for that again. A tree is going to have to be a lot trickier than that to be scary.

We think your kid might have what it takes to be a really scary tree, so you should let them put on this costume and show you their spooky skills. The brown pullover tunic has bark-like details printed on it, taking the shape of a gnarly haunted face. Their arms go into the sleeves to become the branches, with leaves drooping off of their fingers. It’s the perfect way for your little frightener to show everyone the dark side of trees!
