The Force Continues To Be Strong For Star Wars Halloween Costumes

Oct. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- The epic battle between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire continues to rage on, as new Jedi knights are being trained and Darth Vader lives on - at least during Halloween. Thirty four years after the release of the original Star Wars movies, Star Wars characters continue to be a popular Halloween costume theme.

“People love the Star Wars story and they love these characters,” says Greg Likens, president of CostumeHub.com (http://www.costumehub.com). “And dressing up like Han Solo or Princess Leia or Darth Vader for Halloween is a fun way to reconnect with these characters, and help them live on.”

And not only are these Star Wars fans continuing to dress up as their favorite characters from the movies, they’re also passing along their love for the franchise to their children. With the wide variety of Star Wars costumes available for children, parents can include their kids and make dressing up as Star Wars characters for Halloween a family affair.

One thing that has helped the Star Wars franchise continue the popularity of its characters and costumes was the release of three prequel films, introducing new characters to old Star Wars fans and exposing a new generation of audiences to the Star Wars saga. Since then, the Star Wars costume collection has been expanded to include Queen Amidala and Padme, Darth Maul and Anakin Skywalker.

And with the recent release of the original Star Wars trilogy on Blu-Ray (featuring some film alterations made by director George Lucas) there has been a renewed excitement for all things Star Wars. After more than three decades, Star Wars has proven to be continual Halloween favorite among costume lovers. Yes, the Force is strong with this one.
