Most Unique Halloween Costumes



My daughter declared, 2 nights before halloween that she wanted to be an Easter Island Head for halloween. We contructed it from card board and styrofoam found in the garage, held together with duct tape and painted gray to look like rock. This Easter Island head walks and talks, unlike the originals.
