Family-owned and operated Australian marketplace, Spotlight has been the home of arts and crafts for decades now. You'll find everything here to make your own costume, if you're in the mood to get handy.

Alternatively you can also find pre-made costumes (for both kids and adults), ranging from generic characters like witches and vampires to specific film and tv show characters like Wednesday and Bettelejuice. Beyond costumes, you can also find festive decor here to set the spooky mood.
