The Halloween party is in full swing when you walk in looking like the archery contest went horribly wrong. This arrow through head headband creates the illusion of a fake arrow driven clean through your skull, and the double takes start the moment someone spots it.

A gory wound, front and centre

The design shows an arrow sticking right through a bloody wound, so the gag reads instantly from across the room. It sits on a black headband, letting the arrow do all the talking. It suits any horror costume and adds a jolt of fright without a full makeup session.

Who took the shot?

Play a zombie, a vengeful spirit or a deranged archer who aimed too close. Pair the arrow through head headband with a black and silver knight costume and you become a fallen warrior from a medieval battle. Add bloody leggings and bloody gloves to push the gore further. Toss it in your cart and let everyone guess how you survived!
