A fairytale witch costume can be a whimsical and fun choice for a Halloween or costume party. There are many options available when it comes to creating a fairytale witch costume. Firstly, the color scheme is an important consideration when choosing a fairytale witch costume. Traditional witch costumes are often depicted in black, but a fairytale witch costume can be more vibrant and colorful. Consider incorporating shades of purple, green, or even pastel colors to create a more enchanting and magical look. Next, think about the style of the costume.

Monday Magick: Blue Magic – Born on Halloween (Video)
Returning to the routine of pumping out a new Monday Magick post every week over the last month has been rewarding. And I’m especially happy I was able to do it during the month of October. It took afew weeks of getting back into the swing of things, but as the month began drawing to a close I kept my eyes peeled and ears open for an ideal selection to celebrate the outgoing “Season of the Witch” in style. And I do believe the track I picked for this week’s feature fits that bill. Taken from a 1975 LP from Philadelphia Soul quintet Blue Magic by the appropriately ominous title of ‘Thirteen Blue Magic Lane’, that song is the smooth but spooky soul ballad “Born on Halloween”.
“Born on Halloween”? By Blue freakin’ Magic? Can we ask for a more perfect Halloween themed Monday Magic candidate than that.
I’ve complained more than once in this space about the lack of diabolical subject matter in certain musical genres. My personal aesthetic tends to lean towards Funk, Soul, and R&B more than anything. But sadly those are genres that, due largely to cultural reasons and an admittedly tenuous link to “Chruch Music”, tend to shy away from lyrics about The Devil, witches, and the occult. Don’t get me wrong. I like all music. But if I had to write a column dedicated to, say Norwegian Black Metal, just so I could write about music with an occult twist I probably wouldn’t by typing this post right now. Dig? Despite digging soulful shit and having a decent collection of old Soul records I’ve neglected the fact that one of the most popular Soul groups of the ’70s, Blue Magic, actually has the word “magic” in their name and released several songs with vaguely “spooky” titles that allude to the dark paths of the occult in one way or another.
Being reminded of “Born on Halloween”, one of the most glaring examples of this spooky Soul dichotomy, was like a slap to the face.
The song itself, which was produced by Norman Harris and Ron Kersey at the famous Sigma Sound Studios featuring their notorious house band MFSB, is anything but, coming off soothing to the ear in a manner that is typical of the Philly Soul and Soul vocal group sound of the era. Sophisticated orchestral arrangements of dramatic strings provide a chilling but chilled out backdrop for vocal harmonies and a signature keening falsetto that tells a tale of spellbinding romance, abandonment, heartbreak, and supernatural obsession. The protagonist laments falling in love with a “Scorpio” who haunts his dreams to the point of feeling cursed by “the witches brew” of someone who was “born on Halloween, a queen of witchcraft”. That’s about as deep as the song goes to the occult rabbit hole, but it’s a surprisingly dark supernatural take on the standard brokenhearted R&B “simp” template if you ask me.
“Born on Halloween” was recorded for ‘Thirteen Blue Magic Lane’, the group’s third LP. They released a total of nine studio albums, the last of which, ‘My Magic is Real’, was released in 1995. All of the original members of the group appear to be alive and kicking. But there are reportedly three different version of “Blue Magic” featuring various lineups touring at this time.
Music is magick!

A flowing, floor-length dress can give a more ethereal and mystical appearance, while a shorter dress with layers or ruffles can add a touch of whimsy. Accessories are another important element of a fairytale witch costume. Consider adding a pointy hat, adorned with feathers, flowers, or ribbons for an extra touch of fantasy. A cape or cloak can also add drama and elegance to the costume. Don't forget about jewelry and other accessories, such as a wand or a broomstick, to complete the look. Makeup and hair are crucial in creating an authentic fairytale witch costume. Experiment with dark, smoky eye makeup and bold lipstick to achieve a more dramatic effect. You could also go for a more natural look with earth-toned eyeshadows and a soft lip color. Hairstyling options can range from wild and tangled to sleek and mystical, depending on the character you want to portray. Lastly, remember to have fun and embrace your inner fairytale witch when wearing the costume. Play around with different elements and styles to create a look that matches your own personal vision of a fairytale witch. And don't forget to bring a little magic and enchantment to the party!.
Reviews for "Fairytale Witch Costumes: Tips for Finding the Perfect Fit"
- John - 1 star - This fairytale witch costume was horribly made. The fabric was cheap and stiff, and the seams were already starting to unravel when I received it. The fit was also completely off; it was tight in some places and loose in others. Not to mention, the hat that came with it was flimsy and barely stayed on my head. Overall, I was extremely disappointed with this purchase and would not recommend it to anyone.
- Sarah - 2 stars - I was excited to wear this fairytale witch costume for Halloween, but it ended up being a major letdown. The quality was subpar, as the black dress was see-through and the material felt scratchy against my skin. The sizing was also a problem; it was too big in the bust and too short in length. Additionally, the accessories included, such as the broom and gloves, were poorly made and looked cheap. It's safe to say that this costume did not meet my expectations.
- Mark - 1 star - The fairytale witch costume I ordered was a complete disaster. The dress was poorly constructed, with loose threads and uneven hems. The fabric was uncomfortable and didn't stretch, making it difficult to move in. The hat was incredibly flimsy and collapsed on itself constantly. Overall, this costume was a waste of money and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a quality Halloween costume.
