Pirate Halloween Costume

Who Else Wants A Pirate Halloween Costume For The Special Night ?

Whether you are a man, woman or child you are never too old to dress up as a pirate for one night a year. Indeed a pirate Halloween costume is a perennial favorite in the fancy dress ranks along side scary costumes and superheros. It is the ultimate fantasy to act like a pirate and utter all the weird and wonderful sayings and phrases.

So what exactly does “splicing the main brace” mean ?  And when is the right time to utter the unforgettable “kipper me capstans!” or  “coddling catfish!”. Well, lets just say it comes to you as soon as you put the sea boots on and the puffy white shirt, as if by some strange pirate, sea shanty initiation rite that drifts into the ether. Or maybe it is the rum punch that will be flowing fast and free that makes you start say “arrrr me hearties” and the like.

So what can you expect of a pirate Halloween costume ?

Well the first one that trips off most people’s tongues is Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. You can get some pretty authentic looking costumes for Captain Jack and all the other cast from these epic movies. A fantastic Halloween costume is the Davy Jones mask and clothing. This is sure to get a great reaction form people on Halloween night.

Other memorable characters include Captain Hook from Peter Pan fame.

If you want to be your own pirate then how about going as a rogue pirate or the cut throat pirate. They may not be as recognizable as the previous two costumes but you are bound to have heaps of fun with them, especially if there is a band of you all dressed up as pirates. Get learning those sea shanties me hearties.

Other female pirate costumes are loosely described as pirate wench costumes. I’m not sure of their exact role in the whole pirate story but they seem to be a mix of sexy and pirate for the girl that fancies using all of her charm to get her own way. And if that doesn’t work then there’s always the cutlass.

The final pirate costume for women is unashamedly sexy. It’s got a few elements that you might consider vaguely pirate, like a jolly roger hat or an eye patch, but more often than not it is downright cheeky and aimed at making the opposite sex’s pulse a racing. These costumes really will make a first impression.
