Medusa Halloween Costumes- Truly A Unique Beautiful Costume look

With Halloween creeping up fast, the panic and rush has already begun online with people searching for that Halloween look and unique idea. But with so many costumes available, it has become easier to find a costume quick, but there are a lot of repetitions and finding a unique costume is the key to a fun filled night..

This Halloween, the Medusa Look may be the answer to an brilliant costume idea. Because of the Clash Of The Titans movie this year, and our love for mythology, Medusa is a very popular mythological figure, and one a lot of people over look, which is why it's a chance to be truly unique.

The myth of Medusa is stunning. She was not always the monster we think of today, and in myth, was once beautiful. A sister of three, known as the Gorgon sisters, were children of an ancient marine deities. She was a priestess in Athena's temple, and when she became a lover of the “Lord of the Sea” Poseidon under the roof of the temple, Athena became enraged with jealousy, she turned Medusa's beautiful hair in to serpents and made her face so frightening, that any one who seen her face would turn to stone.

It's a fascinating myth and produces a gorgeous costume for any girl out there, looking for a truly unique look this Halloween. This costume and look represents beauty, power, fear, love, desire and treachery, a great combination for an intriguing mystical feeling when you dress up like Medusa.

The myth of Medusa to me is actually a pretty sorrowful one, considering she was seduced no doubt, horribly punished, and when she looked at people, they turned to stone, really you have to emphasize with her.
She was then slain by Perseus, her head cut from the body and delivered to Athena, sad, but exhilarating story telling.

This is why the Medusa costume is a great Halloween idea. The story behind it, with all its action and character dramatics, makes a brilliant idea. The Medusa costumes available online are of fantastic quality and come in all sizes, for all ages and tastes.

The beautiful dresses come in different designs, length and color, and adding great accessories like a perfect headdress to represent the serpents and compliment the dress will make a perfect yet unique costume . Looking charming and exquisite, yet stunningly scary at the same time is a winning combination for any girl this Halloween.
