Jack Torrance Costume – The Shining
Making your own Jack Torrance costume is the easiest The Shining costume to create. With only three items of clothing and one prop you can make recreate one of the most terrifying and coolest characters in movie history. Here is everything you will need to make your very own Jack Torrance costume.
Jack Torrance Jacket
The first item of clothing you will need for The Shining costume is the jacket worn by Jack Nicholson in the movie.
The Jack Torrance jacket is dark red in color. It appears to have both a zip and buttons at the front. It also features two breast pockets and two side pockets. |
Jack Torrance Shirt
You will also need a shirt for The Shining costume like Jack Nicholson wears in the movie.
The shirt worn by Jack Nicholson has a chequered pattern to it which is mainly blue. It appears to be quite a thick looking button down shirt. |
Jack Torrance Jeans
Possibly the easiest part of The Shining costume is the denim jeans the character wears in the movie.
There is nothing special about the denim jeans that you will need other than they need to be blue in color. They should also not be skinny fit jeans. Boot fit or straight fit jeans would be best. |
Jack Torrance Axe
The one and only prop that you will need for The shining costume is an axe. This is the axe that the character uses to smash through the bathroom door towards the end of the film.
The axe you use should have a long handle if you want to be movie accurate. While you could use a real axe we would suggest, for safety, that you use one of the many replica prop axes that are available. |
