Dark Mad Hatter Costume - Checkered

After all, Mad is his middle...no first name! (Which we're sure carries much more weight.) It's one thing to be mad, though, at least he's a little cheerful then. Now the Mad Hatter himself has taken a bit more of a lonely path down the road to madness. It's a little less colorful and a lot more bleak. One could say he's taken a sort of dark turn. He likes his tea without sugar now and his laughs are a little more diabolical than ever before. His riddles have a bit more of a deadly punchline, even if you get it right. Alice better be a little more careful next time she comes back. Wonderland is taking a turn for the dark side. Before long it might have to change its name to fit the mood. Leave your friends a little uneasy around you this Halloween with the Dark Mad Hatter Costume. This costume comes with everything you need to get this lonely, mad look for Halloween. The striped pants have an elastic waist for comfortable fit. The vest has, fittingly, mismatch front panels and the accompanying black jacket has edging and sleeve cuffs with a checkerboard pattern. A black and patterned foam top hat and half black, half white spats and gloves are also included to take it to the next level! Just grab your favorite cup of tea and slap on a bit of a silly grin (not quite like Cheshire cat's though) and perplex your friends with the strangest behaviors that you no longer even understand. It's all an unpredictable world of madness when you fall into the rabbit hole. Apparently Lewis Caroll spread a bunch of lies.We got a hold of little Alice some time ago and asked her to recount her stories to us as well. It was not all happy tea times and fluffy rabbits as Caroll would have you believe. Alice tells us that it was more like a warped nightmare, with twisted buildings, giant bugs, and a psycho queen who wanted to decapitate everyone she met.The other characters weren't anything like the story book either. The Mad Hatter for instance. He wasn't all about sugar and cream, while spouting happy nonsense. Well, there was nonsense, but mostly it was the Hatter muttering about hats trying to squeeze his brain out, blood being used for red hat dye, and how he wanted to size down peoples heads to fit the hats.One might think that Alice would've been a bit freaked out all this. Turns out she loved the morbid macabre madness she found. It was apparently Lewis who got a bit uncomfortable talking about duchesses with butcher knives and giant hares who liked to eat squirming things. That's why he lightened everything up for the stories. However, we're with Alice on this one. The dark crazy Wonderland sounds soooo much more interesting. As a matter of fact, we're intent on visiting. Would you like to come along? Word of warning, apparently we'll be better accepted in Wonderland if we dress appropriately. You could, for instance, wear this Wicked Mad Hatter Costume. It comes with pinstripe pants, a mis-matched vest, black jacket, and black top hat with plenty of black and white checkers and swirls. There's even gloves and boot spats to finish the look. You'll look delightfully morose in this outfit and should fit right in! A word of warning, though? Alice told us to avoid any mushrooms down there. She specifically said we should stick to tea. We think that's good advice.
