Bring Classic Creeps to Life with Addams Family Icons

Bring Classic Creeps to Life with Addams Family IconsImagine sweeping into the party as a walking wall of hair beside your pale, lightbulb-nosed partner.

That’s the beauty of Cousin Itt and Uncle Fester, two characters so bizarre they’re unforgettable.

One gets chuckles with his mysterious mutterings under a shaggy curtain, while the other delights (and slightly creeps out) with his glowing grin.

These two side-by-side feel like the Addams Family just crashed your Halloween.

Materials Needed

  • 1 long brown wig set or skeins of yarn (10-12 packs, 24” length)
  • 1 black bowler or top hat
  • 1 pair of round black sunglasses
  • 1 full-length brown robe (size adult, ankle-length)
  • 1 bald cap (latex or silicone)
  • Gray or white face paint (1 set)
  • Fake fur trim (2 pieces, 8” for wrists)
  • LED light bulb prop (battery-powered, safe to hold in mouth)
  • Hot glue gun & strong adhesive

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: For Cousin Itt, glue yarn strands or wig extensions to a large shirt or fabric base until it creates a full hair curtain that drapes to the floor.

Next, attach the top hat and round glasses.

Step 2: For Uncle Fester, put on the bald cap and cover it with gray or white face paint. Then use darker shading around the eyes to get that sunken look.

Step 3: Slip into the brown robe and add fur cuffs at the wrists for texture.

Step 4: Place the LED light bulb prop in your mouth to complete the classic Fester gag.

Step 5: Stand side by side with Cousin Itt, and you’ve got a duo that blends creepy, quirky, and iconic.

Note:

If Cousin Itt’s yarn hair feels too heavy, attach it in panels to keep the costume lighter and easier to wear.
