An ideal costume mask if you prefer a slightly sinister look!
Phantom of the Opera masks are available in several different
styles and some are actually licensed items.
Children and adults can enjoy a half mask made out of plastic and with an elastic strap to hold it in
place. At about $5, it won't break the bank either.
The deluxe Phantom of the Opera mask costs around $10 and has more of a skull appearence.
Adults can enjoy their own white plastic Phantom mask which fits down one side of the face. Again at $8
it's a cheap way to get into character.
If you need to transform into the "Opera Ghost" even more swiftly, there is a version of the Phantom mask
woth a hat attached! The white mask is topped with a black polyester/plastic hat with gold trim.
Size is about 9" x 14".
To complete your character, a Phantom of the Opera capeis a useful accessory to purchase
as well. These usually come in a red color and range from $25 - $50, so they're a little more
expensive. However, if you want to impress then you might need a cape in addition to the mask.
Also, don't forget to buy the Phantom of the Opera DVD if you haven't seen the film version of the musical
yet. It's got a great symphonic soundtrack and it'll give you a chance to see how Gerard Butler carries off
the character of the Phantom!
