A prop is something that you wear or hold to augment your costume.

Props matter. Wolverine without claws is just a goofy guy in a yellow vest with strangely-symmetrical bedhead. Portal without the gun is just a lady trapped in a room with a sassy computer. Accessorize accurately and your costume makes sense. Fake it or forget and you’ll spend All Hallow’s Eve explaining what you are supposed to be.

Enter your best props to win a DSLR or CRKT multi-tool, and all winners will receive a limited edition Instructables Halloween shirt.
