  • Someone is getting rich off of my idea

    There is actually a patent for the cold weather Halloween costume. 

    A Halloween costume particularly adapted to accommodate changes in
    weather and climate is disclosed. The Halloween costume may be sold in
    varied geography and be worn regardless of seasonal and whether
    variation.

    I found two other interesting Halloween related patents: 

    What is a flexible or light emitting member?

    A chemiluminescent reagent sounds truly frightening.  I'm guessing its like a glow stick.  And that picture of the little girl...now that's scary.


    Illumination and Halloween costume

     
    ..."A light
    emitting member
    having an appearance which creates, in the mind of an
    individual viewing the light emitting member, an associated image
    associated with the image of a person, animal, character or thing
    completes the inventive costume."

    A costume
    safety mask housing chemiluminescent reagents. Upon activation, the
    reagents illuminate the mask or features thereon for purposes of
    novelty illumination and safety of the wearer. The mask may include
    liquid, viscous liquid, or solid chemiluminescent reagents that are
    held in cavities. Liquid components of the instant invention may be
    transported through passageways in the mask to provide a flowing
    appearance.

    [0066] FIG. 6 depicts a mask 100 that simulates a young girl
    wherein the liquid-liquid chemiluminescent reagents or liquid-dry
    chemiluminescent reagents can be used to highlight aspects of the mask.
    The safety mask may include cavities to highlight the cheek 102, chin
    104, forehead 106, eyebrow 108, lip 110, eyeball 112, nose 114, hair
    116 and so forth. The mask can be rotatably attached to a human head by
    the use of a hook and loop (VELCRO) strap and rotated so that the
    representation of the mask would change, for example, to that of an
    elderly woman, as shown in FIG. 7. Portions of the mask may be opaque
    to conceal fluids and other fluids may relocate to cause enhanced aged
    features. For example, the chin 124 may contain fluid that flowed from
    the young girl's hair 116. The eyeball 112 fluid may flow to the
    eyeball socket 126. The lips 110 having a concentrated fluid may flow
    to the general forehead area 128, and so forth. The result is a dual
    function mask having illumination for novelty as well as safety
    purposes.
