Medusa Halloween costumes have been a favorite since 2008. For some reason it has continued to be a favorite Halloween costume showing growing popularity each year.
Medusa was the most famous of the three Gorgon sisters, the other two being, Stheno and Euryale. In Greek mythology she became known as a very powerful female figure. Originally a very beautiful maiden until cursed by the goddess Athena in a fit of jealous anger and made so hideous that Poseidon would not be interested in her.
In fact Athena made sure that no other man would be interested in her as to behold her meant one would immediately be turned to stone. As you could imagine this changed the carefree and amiable personality of Medusa to one of resentful, angry and vengeful.
In modern times Medusa has been associated with the empowerment of women and a symbol of female rage and the ability to overcome obstacles. This is probably one of the reasons for the increasing popularity of Medusa Halloween costumes.
