This place has a lot of stuff that has lots of stuff. Just about any different theme costume, accessory, wig, prop, and gag. They have a hard No Refund policy, so you better hope what you get is what you really like and that fits you. It is pricy but each time Ive gone, Ive had good customer service and seen employees helping others and/cleaning up. This company has been open and in its original location for a couple decades. Also, its open year-round, not just for Halloween.

My first time there was on Halloween. The store is very well stocked. Had a large variety of costumes. Saff was very nice came up to me was a available when I needed them. Opened the package do I could check out the costume I chose between two. Only drawback is the price is significantly higher priced than what I found online. But was available immediately without waiting for shipping I could see feel and touch it. I knew what I wanted, found it and was in and out in 15 minutes.

I have been going to House of Humor for 20 years for costume and decoration needs. They are a vital part of Redwood City.

Last local outpost of a vanishing breed - the humor/prank/costume store. In a class by itself, way above the seasonal Halloween big box store. And going online just isnt the same as seeing a wall of whoopie cushions, soap-flavored hard candy and now of course electronic devices emitting all sorts of rude noises, right before your very eyes.

I love Halloween, I love Purim, I love dressing up for festivals, parades, parties. If you love those things too, this place is for you! They have all the costumes - ALL THE TIME! No seasonal waits for anything - want burning man gear - its here, dressing up like a sexy kitten - sure its there too, want fake science fiction weapons - theres a whole section! Come on down to house of humor!

Been shopping here for adorable costumes since my first Trick-Or-Treat. Has everything you could ever want for any and all of your costume needs!Friendly and ready-to-help staff always make it more fun.

Review №17

I did not spend long, so I cannot evaluate it well. Selection seemed, if not enormous, extensive. I was approached for help, got great assistance. It is out of the way for me, but I left with the conviction this is the place for me to get costumes & related stuff.

Review №18

Not your typical costume store. Yes they have your standard halloween costume in a bag but carry so much more than that. Unique pieces to mix and match that will really make your costume stand out. The prop selection is unbelievable too. Worth a visit for sure!

Review №19

They have everything you need for costumes, wigs, etc. Also good for stage makeup. I do have to say, Ive bought pancake from them many times and the color in the store I try with their help isnt quite right when I get home. It just might be my weird white/pink skin.

Nice place

Review №21

Basic supply of costumes, mainly the cheap ones made in a third world country. I didnt find enough accessories, the other three stores I went to far exceeded my expectations, so I was not impressed when I came here.The staff was friendly but to be honest were a bit dim.If you want a generic and cheap costume, probably best for children, Id recommend checking this place out.

Review №22

It is a rarity to find a year round costume store these days. To find one with the selection and service of HoH is even rarer. The store is divided into themes - makeup, 60/70s, horror, masks, etc. If you need costume makeup - this location has high quality items, for the same price as online. Plus they have some cheaper items if youre putting together a costume on the cheap or for the kiddos.

Review №23

Amazing costume store, with everything you could want for a Halloween or a costume party outfit, if youve got the coin. From colored wigs and hair spray to full-on whole body costumes. Right in downtown Redwood City. Open all year with sales and rentals - but dont wait too long, it gets insanely busy the week before Halloween...
