The Mad Hatter

I love this place too. It’s like a treasure trove. We’ve hired costumes there and always had great service. We’ve also bought some bits and pieces and generally come out with more than we need. It’s one of those more unique places that adds character to Yeovil.

I love this place. Its got everything. The glass case at the front of the store has all the little bits like glasses and fake noses and cigars that look lit, silly teeth and jewelry — loads of little costume extras. The walls are covered in packages of fake beards and swords and just a ton of costume accessories. Masks hang from the ceiling. Wigs sit on shelves. The back room has some costumes on display and others that are packaged with clear pictures of what’s inside. During the Halloween weeks, the upstairs rooms are open for viewing with scary displays of skeletons and mummies and things that move or make noise as you walk by. My ten year old loved it. Me too. The staff is extremely helpful and pleasant. I go to this shop any time the older kids have a theme night at school, and of course, for Halloween costumes. It isn’t inexpensive, but they usually have what we’re looking for. They don’t give cash back on returns though, but do exchanges, so choose carefully.
