While a pilgrim can mean anyone who makes a religious voyage, in the United States, the word pilgrim almost always refers to the people who landed at Plymouth Rock, colonized New England, and celebrated Thanksgiving, creating traditions that have lasted four hundred years. Our Pilgrim wigs let you add an authentic look to your pilgrim costume. Your pilgrim wig and costume let you celebrate the harvest in style. Not just for Halloween, our pilgrim wigs and beards are often used in period plays in high school, college, and community theater productions. Pilgrims came to America to escape persecution in Europe during a very volatile time between the Roman Catholic and protestant religions, but you will not have to worry about any kind of conflict when you wear your pilgrim wig; pilgrims now symbolize the freedom and fortitude upon which our country was built. Stir up some patriotic remembrances in your group of friends when you add a pilgrim wig to your pilgrim costume for your next performance or costume party.
