PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- One moulded plastic skeleton parrot in weathered grey and black with yellow beak
- Elastic shoulder strap
This Kids Dead Parrot Shoulder Prop turns any pirate costume into a ghost-ship captain's outfit — skeletal parrot with exposed ribcage, spine, and wing bones perched on the shoulder. Oversized yellow beak and hollowed eye sockets give it proper undead pirate energy.
Moulded rigid plastic holds its shape on the shoulder without flopping. Weathered grey-and-black paint scheme with gradient shading looks genuinely cursed-treasure-haunted. Elastic strap runs diagonally across chest and back for secure mounting — stays put through Book Week parades or trick-or-treating without sliding off.
Perfect For
Book Week & Pirate Literature Days: Natural fit for Treasure Island, Peter Pan's Captain Hook, or any swashbuckling storybook character needing a supernatural edge.
Halloween & Costume Parties: Pairs with skeleton pirate costumes, ghost captain outfits, or zombie buccaneer ensembles for Walk the Plank parties and haunted ship themes.
School Concerts & Themed Days: Adds drama to nativity plays (cursed wanderer), history projects (pirate lore), or casual dress-up days where kids want dark-humor props.
How to Wear It
Thread the elastic strap over one shoulder and across the opposite hip so the parrot sits securely. Pair with a pirate hat, eye patch, and torn vest for full ghost-ship vibes.
Parent FAQs
Q: Will this fit both kids and adults?
A: Yes — the elastic strap adjusts to fit most shoulder widths, child through adult. Universal accessory that works across ages.
Q: Is the plastic heavy or does it dig into the shoulder?
A: Lightweight moulded plastic — rests comfortably without digging in. Kids can wear it for hours at Book Week or Halloween without complaint.
Q: Can this be worn over a jacket or thick costume?
A: Elastic strap stretches to fit over layered clothing. Works fine over a pirate coat or hoodie on cold parade days.
Q: Is this only for pirate costumes or does it work with other themes?
A: Designed for pirate/buccaneer looks, but also works for zombie costumes, ghost themes, or any dress-up needing a macabre prop.
Care: Wipe with a damp cloth; store flat to avoid paint scuffing.
