About Sharks

Perhaps the deadliest fish in the ocean, there are many different types of sharks, but they're all just as deadly. From the great white shark that was the basis for the iconic deep sea horror flick, Jaws to the odd-looking Hammerhead and Tiger Sharks, these ferocious finned denizens of the deep are a force of nature to be reckoned with, possessing row upon row of sharp, pointed teeth that can turn the water red with blood.

Dressing up as a Shark

As fearsome as these underwater creatures are, shark costumes aren't all bite and no play. Dress up as a classic Saturday Night Live inspired land shark, complete with a shark-styled bodysuit with a hole for your head to poke out of. Other costumes poke fun at shark attacks, designed with feet sticking out of the "shark"'s mouth, giving the illusion of a shark mid-meal.

Or, you could dress as a shark and his victim with the Shark Bite Make Up Kit with stencils to recreate some gruesome bites that look like they came from Jaws himself! Where's Quint when ya need him!?

Kids can get in on the act with fun, officially licensed costumes from the film Shark Tales, featuring several characters from the cartoon movie.
