Witches' Hats

Witch hats are a classic costume accessory for Halloween, Fasching & Walpurgisnacht. With a witch hat you can perfect your witch costume for Halloween and become a fairy tale character for carnival. Classic witch hats are usually black, round and have a pointed cone in the middle. Different models, some with lace, withered roses or scraps of fabric, make the witch hats look extravagantly elegant as a facinator or daring and sinister, depending on the theme.

Make a witch hat

Making a witch hat for wizards and witches is not difficult at all. Given the low prices of industrially manufactured witch hats, it is not very profitable to make a witch hat yourself. The materials needed for a witch hat alone, regardless of time, exceed the expense of an off-the-shelf witch hat. Witch hat crafting for kids is therefore mostly intended as a recreational activity for the Halloween season, rather than a true substitute for a witch hat as a costume accessory. You can find instructions for witch hat crafting in our blog post.

Witch hats as costume accessories

Witch hats are a classic among the carnival hats and have gained importance through Halloween and Walpurgis Night. With the right witch hat your witch costume gets the final touch. Depending on the theme, this should look elegant, mysterious or morbid. The classic witch hat is one size fits all, black and usually made of shiny satin. Elegant look witch hats with lace, veil and roses as decoration. Often witch hats are printed with glittering Halloween motifs such as moon, cat and stars and thus provide additional eye-catchers. Eerie and morbid looking witch hats often show withered roses, skeleton or bone parts and are decorated with moss and spider webs.
More and more often you see witch hats used for various theme parties independent of Halloween and carnival. When Walpurgis Night is celebrated in the Harz Mountains, witch hats are welcome there even without a witch costume.

Witch hats for children

Children love witch hats and not just since Harry Potter and Bibi Blocksberg. A black witch hat quickly turns every child into a sorcerer's apprentice or a budding witch who uses it to perform little magic tricks at kindergarten or the school play. Inexpensive and quick to put on, a witch hat for kids is a fantastic dress-up accessory that finds its use at birthday parties and theme parties.
