With the Thriller Werewolf costume, you can pay homage to Michael Jackson this Halloween without having to wear a sequined glove. This costume turns you into the werewolf from the classic 'Thriller' music video.

You don't have to be a huge Michael Jackson fan or a great dancer to be able to pull of this costume. The Thriller Werewolf costume is a great costume for people who want to wear something original but don't want to make a costume or spend a lot of money. I am both of those people so I can astutely say that the Thriller Werewolf costume is killer.
