Horrible experience! Store is packed with tons of crap, rental costumes are dingy and falling apart and the quality of costumes to buy are no different than those you can purchase from a mass retailer. There is nothing "unique" here at all and the cherry on top is the woman who has worked there 'for 30 years!' is absolutely rude.

Don't waste your time here, honestly if I could give this store a zero star rating, I would. The store is a complete nightmare, it looks like something out of hoarders and the woman who I believe owns the place, is extremely annoying and obnoxious. No matter what I said, she kept trying to push off a costume rental, which the rentals are absolutely disgusting; they are ripped, stained and show A LOT of use. I insisted several times that I did not want to rent and finally when she attempted to help me with a purchase she proceeded to try and sell me an $85 costume of 'high quality' which was absolutely NO DIFFERENT than the $35 costume I seen in Walmart. She also kept going on about 'bagged costumes' and how horrible they were when what she pulled out was EXACTLY THAT! She also felt the need to go off into a million different stories which I had no interest in and attempted to 'educate' me on costume sizing. I went to a top design school with a major in fashion design, the last thing I wanted was this woman trying to tell me what size i would need and that her 95% polyester, 5% foam costume for $85 was of 'high quality'. She was basically insinuating, from how she was talking to me, that I was ignorant when it came to costumes and clothing. I finally gave up and walked out of the store leaving her SCREAMING AFTER ME. She also kept bragging about how people travel from all over the US for her store and about how people come from California and New York just to rent and buy from her store, as if she was impressing me. Sadly, if people travel more than 10 minutes to come to this disaster, I feel sorry for them.

First off let me say that the store is in complete disarray. The woman working there (Ann i presume) was very overbearing and had trouble with just letting us look around and figure out what we wanted. She was down our throats from the second we walked in.



My wife finally settled on a cat costume that she bought new, and I settled on Hanibal Lecter ... however the mask (even though it was plastic) cost $35 to buy so she suggested I rent the whole costume for $40 which included the straight jacket and the whole shebang. I was grateful she was forthcoming at the time ...



However we went down the shore (NJ) to the Halloween party and when I went to change into the costume one strap on the straight jacket was hanging on by a thread, and the other was completely off but was attached with a SAFETY PIN.



When I returned the costume I was prepared to let it go if she appeared she didn't know (maybe a customer returned it that way and she never realized it - however unlikely) but instead she tried to claim it was supposed to be that way because "some people like it without the buckles and some don't."



Needless to say I made it clear that she was insulting my intelligence and left. I will never go back in to that store again, and you shouldn't either.

I've been going to Ann's Costume Shop for 15 years!! She has taught me to appreciate "authentic" costumes!! The owner is very creative and passionate. The place is full of history. Thanks Ann for making Halloween so much fun!!

this place is disgusting. it's like something out of hoarders - crap piled up everywhere, ratty looking costumes. the store is very unkempt. i kept feeling something on my ankles while i was there, and while i didn't actually see any fleas, i'm sure it was something flea-like that was attempting to bite me. the owner brags about having thousands of costumes, but if you've got thousands of pieces of crap, then it really doesn't matter. crap is crap. don't waste your time here. the owner is obnoxious and rude. you can get much better costumes and customer service at any generic halloween store.

Had a nice experience here. A woman that worked there was extremly helpful in helping me figure out what to be for my husbands Halloween work party. They definitely have some unique things there that you wouldn't see one of those mega Halloween stores. Worth the trip.

My daughter had to do a book report for her class and Ann helped us put together the perfect costume. Thanks.

I couldn't find the costume I was looking for anywhere. When I called Ann, she told me that she would take care of it and sure enough, she called me back soon after saying that she had exactly what I was looking for. I suggest using Ann's because she is as proffesional as they come, and the best in the business. She was a pleasure dealing with and I hope to deal with her again. Prices were in the low to fair range also!
