Vampires have enthralled and haunted our imaginations long before Bram Stoker introduced us to the iconic Dracula in the 19th century. While Dracula remains a legendary figure in vampire lore, he wasn't the first of his kind to grip audiences. In 1816, a character named Lord Ruthven emerged as a sensation.

While initially portrayed as a human representation of the renowned Lord Byron in Lady Caroline Lamb's novel "Glenarvon," Lord Ruthven's identity underwent a dark transformation. Later that same year, in Dr. John William Polidori's short story "The Vampire," he was reborn as a sinister vampire, cementing his place in dark literary folklore.

Our 19th-century costume captures the essence of Victorian-era vampires, echoing the dark allure of figures like Lord Ruthven. When you wear this authentically designed set, you'll be transported back to when the night was filled with whispered tales of these nocturnal beings. Don it, and embody the terror and elegance of the original vampires.

Outstanding! I will absolutely order from them again. My new ‘go to’ company for costumes


Excellent customer service from vendor (not Etsy). Costume was amazing. I will order again.


Costume is excellent! Exceeded expectations, except the glasses didn’t have nose rests and fit very oddly, so we purchased a pair separately. We accidentally received the incorrect style of shirt, and the seller was incredibly quick to send out the correct shirt — same day! Hat is particularly high quality, I strongly suggest the larger size hat if you are planning to wear a wig underneath. Paying extra for the accessories was worth it!


Great quality clothing. Just need to buy a cane now:)
