grinch History & Costumes

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch!
You're dastardly, sneaky and cross!
This year, show all those Whos in Whooville
Just who's boss!

No need to worry about a costume
Three sizes too big or too small.
There is plenty of Grinch finery
That will surely fit them all!

From the Dr. Seuss christmas classic that inspired a beloved animated cartoon, a full-length movie, and a Broadway play are costume that will make your season a little more fun. The prickly and plotting Grinch aspired to ruin the holiday for the chipper creatures known as Whos, but ended up becoming the happiest critter of them all with just a hint of holiday kindness shown by the hospitable Whos.

Many Grinch costumes feature Seuss' sourpuss dressed as santa Claus and come complete with a traditional red and white jacket with a black belt and a full-coverage over-the-head green Grinch mask with attached green "fur"/"hair" and an attached red-and-white santa hat.
