welcome to dark creations atx
Imagination Brought to Life.
*Thank you to everyone who participated in our successful annual Spring Sale. We have reached our Winter/early Spring order capacity on almost all designs as we enter into our high season of the 2023 season. We do anticipate another small 2 week window to open April 1st as we will again reopen our site to select new orders. We will have our new mask options, Cletus, Bubba, and Bobby Jo designs as well as our Living Dead zombie collection and additional Ready to Ship items open year round to order. Please be advised that all orders during our Springtime sale will begin shipping in late May/ early June with an email and/or phone call prior to shipping. Thanks again everyone.*
***Our annual Spring Sale starts today! Use coupon code 2023SALE and take 10% off you entire order today Friday Feb. 10 through Sunday Feb. 19th. This will be the only sale of the 2023 season. Thank You.
***We are now OPEN to NEW orders for most costumes, props, and custom work as well as numerous Ready to Ship options added for the 2023 season. This is our main window for the 2023 season lasting from Jan. 15th through Feb. 19th. It is again during this time most all of our designs are open to order. Due to excessive order volume and custom bookings (we are truly grateful for this support) we WILL be taking only a select amount of orders for many of our costume designs so please get your order placed if possible within this window…if a costume or prop states “temporarily unavailable” or “out of stock” we may have reached our capacity for the season. Please be advised that our fabrication turnaround time also has changed and extended now into our high season and those times can be seen prior to accepting checkout before finalizing your order. ***
Here we go again… our 11th season on its way starting DECEMBER 10th, 2022 bringing with it some cool changes….
Thank You all for yet another fantastic 2022 / 10 year anniversary season.
NEW for 2023…Over the years we tend to experience a very high order volume earlier and earlier with each passing season. For the upcoming 2023 season we are going to try to accommodate as many orders and custom requests as possible as we will now be offering 2 large seasonal windows of new order availability. During these windows we anticipate the majority of all orders to be placed as we will open up the vast majority of our website to new orders and custom work during these specific dates (NOTE: some costumes such as our Living Dead lineup , Vs character and others will remain open and available ALL season long to ordering once we reopen with the same production time frames.) This will allow us to service more orders more frequently throughout the year as we will then close off many products of our catalog website to ordering to address this new volume of orders until the next window reopens. *Please also continue to visit our website Home Page, FAQ page as well as our social media platforms for periodic updates and up to date information concerning our updated 2023 ordering options*
***NEW production schedule for 2023***
Orders placed on available products during our our LOW SEASON (December 10, 2022 thru Jan. 14th, 2023) require, on average, an 8-10 week production time.
Orders placed during our our 2 new seasonal windows heading into our HIGH SEASON (1st window…Jan.15th thru Feb.19th, 2023 and 2nd window…April 1st, 2023 thru April 15th, 2023 ) require, on average, a 12-16 week (or sooner) production time.
Most prop orders (most offered year round) have a significantly shorter production time at approximately a 4-6 week time frame.
Custom work requests are always welcome and will require consultation to determine production time frames needed based on concept and detail.
***Ready to Ship items***
In addition to our upcoming 2023 NEW RELEASES, we will be offering a significant and steady amount of In-stock / Ready to ship custom items. Along with our standard ordering options there will be many costume and prop items (with many sizes and variants to choose from) that have been popular staples in our catalog continuously added to our Ready to Ship section throughout the 2023 season. Also look for some extremely neat, uber detailed one-off costumes, props and accessories to be added…but remember its first come first serve for these as once they are gone they are gone! Also in addition to our growing In-stock options we will be offering new costume ensemble packages of some of our most popular current costumes along with new releases to create a well-rounded group theme for any haunted attraction or feature film. We have also implemented the Affirm “payment plan” POS platforms this season to help you effectively budget for your favorite DCATX costumes. Lastly we will be lending our services more this season to unique individual custom work. We offer an exceptional (and consistent) level of professional craftmanship in all of our work so let us, as our company tagline states, bring your imagination to life!

With the present letter, we are informing the public that the costumes for our movie: “The House of Evil“ were made by Adam Lane and his company Dark Creation ATX We are VERY pleased by the quality and we will order soon from them for some costumes for our TV series, now in pre-production called : “The Omega File”.
Massimiliano Cerchi, Producer/Director Dark Mountain Pictures
We are a professional haunted attraction located in Leeds, Alabama. Atrox had an opportunity to work with Adam and Dark Creations ATX this year and it was an amazing experience. The quality of workmanship and detail that went into each and every costume was impeccable. No small detail was overlooked down to the shoelaces. All of our costumes were custom sizes and they all fit our actors with no modifications. We took a chance on this company that we found on Facebook and it was a chance we have loved every second of. Adam and his crew are highly talented and a pleasure to deal with. We look forward to working with them in the near future for more custom work. DCATX costumes made our local news for our haunt season and they can be seen in the phot below. I would highly recommend him and his staff for any custom costume work.

It is my pleasure to have the opportunity to speak about my experiences collaborating with Dark Creations ATX (DCATX) and to recommend their work for any custom character/costume projects they may have the opportunity to be a part of. Last year, my movie production company hired Adam Lane and DCATX to design and create the costume and overall look of the title character in our upcoming horror feature, Bonejangles. We approached DCATX with the project at the very last minute during the height of Halloween/Haunt Prep season and not only did DCATX ensure us that the costume would arrive in time for principle photography to start but that it would look outstanding and hold up throughout the entire 30 day shooting schedule. When the final costume was delivered to us it was very evident the quality was incomparable and exceeded our expectations. The design and color palette of the costume translated beautifully on screen, and the construction of the costume held up over the course of production, which included many stunts and long, hot summer days. DCATX demonstrated effective communication with us throughout the entire design process, which included phone calls, text messages, and photos of progress. Overall, our business dealings with DCATX have been fantastic, and I would not hesitate to hire Adam and DCATX for any of my upcoming projects. Additionally, I would not hesitate to recommend DCATX to any other company looking for a reliable and brilliant character, costume, and/or prop designer.

Simply put..we are BIG fans of all the great horror movies and their distinguished list of characters that have come and gone over the years. Some people may like scary movies because they enjoy the adrenaline rush of being scared while being safe at home or in a theater, some for the high suspense factor, and some to simply “escape” from their grinds of daily life.
