Why Choose a Robin Hood Costume for Halloween?

Robin Hood, also known a Sir Robin of Loxley, is legendary for stealing from the

rich and giving to the poor, and for fighting the Sheriff of Nottingham's tyranny. He was also pretty good at archery! Stories about the adventures of Robin Hood have been told and retold for over 600 years, as well as the tales of his outlaw band of "merry men" (and women), including Little John, Friar Tuck, Maid Marion, and others.

In Robin's time, few people could read or write and consequently little was written down about the exploits of this hero. Instead, people heard about Robin and his band through the wandering minstrels who wove a patchwork of fact and fiction into the contemporary culture of the time.

Today, thanks to movies and books, everyone knows the tales of Robin Hood and continue to sing his praises. Especially with the release of the epic film starring Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchet, choosing to wear a Robin Hood costume to your next theme party or Halloween costume party is quite popular.
