My Strangest Ever Fancy Dress Costume

I have created and worn some quite weird fancy dress costumes over the years, but none wa ever as weird as my Coconut Face Demon. I decided that some thrift store hanging flower baskets made of coconut weave would make a good mask and gloves. With a cloak robe I thought the design would look quite funny, but it just looked utterly malevolent. It looked scary for resembling no familiar Halloween style creature, vampire, werewolf, etc. It was quite an uncomfortable outfit too, and eventually the coconut matting started to rot so it only lasted a few years before the masks had to be disposed of.

It waa kinda weird though my son would appreciate it since he is fond of collecting mask of all sorts. Deom joker mask to power ranger mask to plain white mask to be painted on. And this one you are wearing may pass as a jason mask.

It is true that this a pretty weird looking costume, but not so scary after all.

That's certainly pretty gross-looking.
