Add a Spooky Twist to Any Costume
The Foam Halloween Axe Prop is a lightweight, safe, and realistic-looking accessory that’s perfect for adding a creepy finishing touch to your Halloween costume. At 28.5cm long, it’s compact enough to carry all night but detailed enough to look convincing as part of a lumberjack, butcher, or horror villain outfit.

Its prank potential also adds to the fun, making it more versatile than most props.
