The Munster’s was a TV series that I watched on the weekends when I was a kid. So, now that I have my husband LOVING Halloween, I thought he would make it perfect in a homemade Grandpa Munster costume. I was so excited I couldn’t wait to get started!
The costume was a bit of a breeze – long-tailed black tuxedo and pants; white dress shirt and vest and white bow tie, a black cape and the red Dracula medallion. Then came the hair – he has the coolest hair to work with. I started with hair sculpting molding crème first to keep that hair down then added black hair gel. A good teasing of his hair on the side and some white hair spray to bring out Grandpa pa’s crazy hair style, along with brushing his eyebrows up.
Then came the make up – have you every tried putting eye liner around a guy’s eyes? It’s not easy. It took me about 5 hours to do his hair and make-up. But how great is this?!

nice job. I can actually see a resemblance.
If it weren’t for my husband’s hair, it wouldn’t have been possible to get that effect! His hair took quite a bit of time, but well worth the outcome!!!
Thank you.
