The very first Cosplay store in Singapore, Pan-In-The-Box has been dressing cosplayers since 2003. Over the years, they have grown their repertoire to include costumes for themed parties and D&Ds.

So, don't judge a shop by its size; when you step in, you'll be blown away by its huge collection. Don't know where to start? Let the friendly and patient owners help you coordinate your outfit.

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.
