This exquisite Rubies Costume Co. werewolf outfit comes with a hefty price tag, but the quality is there and so is the stunning effect. You will certainly elicit shrieks of fearful delight in this get up, if not one or two howls.
For your money, you receive the whole ensemble, give or take the pants and shoes. That includes mask, arm extensions, shirt and belt.
The Midnight Howler Costume comes as a one-size piece, but for those wishing to purchase a version in plus sizes, they are available too. Just have a hunt around on Amazon.

If you are looking for a deluxe werewolf outfit, which will survive many years of Halloween events, then your hunt is over. Zagone Studios have produced these ultra-realistic werewolf costume sets, which look like they've been used in the movies!
The most brilliant feature of these outfits is the mask. It's not entirely static. The mouth section moves convincingly, so you can let out one of those blood-curdling howls and your face will mirror the action.
The Killer Werewolf (assembled below) is designed for men up to 6' 2" in height and 190lbs in weight. The plush fur is gray, as opposed to the brown pelt of the She-werewolf outfit.
You will receive that wonderful mask (Night Crawler Wolf Mask for the men; Alpha She-Wolf Mask for the ladies); a tattered shirt (beige in the male set; blue for the female set) with the torso fur attached; furry leggings; werewolf gloves with scarily great claws; and snarled wolfish feet.
Each set is sold separately, so you have to choose between male werewolf or female werewolf. But what you see is what you get here. No need to add accessories.

Another werewolf costume from the high end of the market, but the quality does tell.
This one-size fits most (up to 42-46" in height and no more than 190lbs) wolfman suit has many minute features, which aren't immediately obvious from the picture.
For a start, the eyes are a beastly, piercing yellow. You are actually looking out through hidden eye-holes in the mouth!
The feet are fastened with two boot straps, for extra security in fitting them just right. The attached tail has a sturdy wire inside, which allows you to shape it how you will.
The Deluxe Werewolf Costume comes as a four piece fancy dress. You get the latex mask, which is attached to a furry hood, so you don't break up your pelt. Plus the plush shirt and pants, then latex hands and furry boot covers.
Some commentators weren't happy with the gloves, which may run a little too short on larger males.

This Wolfman (or woman) outfit seems to be everywhere!
Check out any fancy dress retailer of your choosing and you can bet that it's listed there. This just goes to show its enduring popularity.
Created by Fun World Costumes, the scary, brown werewolf lives up to its name. Would you want to see those teeth snarling in for a bite?!
You are buying the mask, shirt and wolf gloves here, adding your own bottom half to complete the costume.
The standard size will fit all adults up to about 200lbs, though there is a plus size version if you need to go larger.
The scary, brown werewolf is actually a nice, quality costume, at a decent mid-range price. It also looks good, even if it doesn't have all of the bells and whistles of the deluxe costumes above.

California Costumes have created this two piece Wolfman outfit; and it has another tremendous mask!
The mouth-piece is fitted to your own jaw, so that when you talk, the muzzle opens and closes with your own mouth. It looks very realistic for all of that howling!
While it is largely one-size-fits all, the costume does come with some Styrofoam spacers. These can be used to ensure that the mask fits perfectly; or else what would be the point?
The second part of the werewolf outfit is the shirt. Plush polyester fur pushes through a tattered shirt. You will have to add the pants and trainers yourself.

Oh! That poor child! It's wandered into a wolf trap, which is a ghastly flipping on its head of what that usually means!
Instead of human beings ensnaring wolves, we have the Wolfman carrying away this little fellow. The end result can't be good.
What I love best about this costume is that it implies a whole story going on. Anyone could dress up as a werewolf on Halloween. That's just an outfit. This one will cause double-takes, then long stares, as people piece together what led up to this moment and, scarily enough, what will follow.
All you need to do is walk around seeing, snarling occasionally, and being seen.
There is no need to accessorize with this Wolf Trap Costume. You receive the shirt with its headpiece, mask and cage attached, as well as the furry legs and gloves.
Terrified child comes as standard.
I don't know about you, but when I'm thinking about Wolfman, I'm not there with the new-fangled 2010 stuff with CGI and special effects.
I'm back in 1941 with the old black and white classics! My parents weren't even born then, but I'm still on Team Lon Chaney Jr here!
Fortunately Rubie's Costume Company have considered the old days too. This outfit harks right back to those stunning performances from the dawn of the silver screen.
It's technically a four-piece Wolf Man costume, though you could say it's got thirteen pieces, if you're counting every finger tip as separate.

I love that this is called 'lip service', even if the rest of the title tries to big it up some more!
This really is the outfit for those people nudged into attending Halloween events, but who haven't got the confidence and/or the will to plunge into the spirit of things.
You're not buying either the shirt or the jeans here. Just the wrap around hat and gloves. A long tail under the chin doubles as faux fur chest hair.
It's so not really there that the overall effect is actually quite cute. I would burst out laughing if I saw this in the street. Then I'd probably hug the person wearing it, while trying to work out the points for trying.

Challenge accepted. Step 1, Buy a banana costume. Step 2, Locate the Monkey Man again.
Now what that man needs is a friend. A friend in a giant banana costume, who will go walking places with him :D
LOL I love your sense of humour! Strangely enough, someone went walking down my street earlier in a monkey costume. It was a full grown man. In a monkey costume. I was walking by the landing window at the time, and I had to reverse and have a second look.
Yep, definitely an adult in a monkey costume. Not at Halloween. Happy days! It really did cheer me up. :)
These would be funny to wear in like July at night in a forestish yet still near people type area and chase people while screaming at them. :|
I had a friend in college who did that in the little wooded area we appropriately called "the forest," but in a gorilla suit. He'd pop out and scream at parents and fellow students walking by after a volley ball game. It was actually really funny to see people react to it xD
