Carbon Costume

Moira O’Hara is a character in American Horror Story. She appears in the first season, Murder House, as one of the many ghosts doomed to live in the house forever. The cause of her death was getting shot in the eye by Constance Langdon, who caught her husband making advances on her. To women, she appears as her “true self” — a pleasant elderly lady with a gray left eye. To men, she appears as a young seductress. In her words, this is because women see things for as they are whereas men see only what they desire. She befriends Vivian and tries to help during her pregnancy, but she preys on Ben’s adulterous desires. Frances Conroy plays her older self, and Alexandra Breckenridge plays her younger self as seen in this costume guide.

Scorpio (October 23rd to November 21st) is the fixed water sign of the zodiac and 8th on the zodiac wheel. Scorpios are the most calculating of any water sign. Symbolized by the scorpion they are known have a mysterious and somewhat dangerous quality. They do not show their plans to others or talk much about themselves. Recluse Scorpios are ruled by the planet Pluto. Scorpios tend to have an outer shell that fronts as thorny to many but are quite sensitive and soft characters once they are willing to open up. This costume is mostly black monochromatic with silver and brown details. A fitting look for any Scorpio on Halloween night.

On the CW show Supernatural, Kevin Tran (played by Osric Chau) is originally introduced as an extremely intelligent high school student who is dedicated to maintaining straight As.  However, he is soon transformed into a prophet of God, and helps Sam and Dean by translating tablets related to the Leviathans, Demons, and Angels.  Kevin is eventually killed and now roams the Earth as a ghost rather than return to Hell.  Finding a Supernatural-style tablet can be difficult and expensive, but you could DIY your own stand-in with a slate charcuterie board or tile and a fine tip chalk marker.

Tae Kwon Doug – also known as Douglas and played by Michael Trucco from Hush and Battlestar Galactica – is the rather inept antagonist on Disjointed. Though he starts the show firmly anti-drug (and woefully misinformed) he slowly comes around to the staff of the dispensary next to his dojang. He takes a special liking to Pete who he ends up treating as a sort of adopted son.

To cosplay as Doug you’ll want to get a dobok – the Korean term for a gi. You’ll also need a black belt and a headband as well as a few patches. It’s hard to have as many as Doug does, however, since he adds a new patch with each episode. Finish off the look with some camo camping crocs and you’re ready to take out the nearest BioWave.

Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch) is a main character in the FX show What We Do In The Shadows, a spinoff of the movie directed by Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement. Colin is a special type of vampire called an “energy vampire.” Instead of feeding on blood, like the other resident creatures, he feeds on energy. At his office job, he was notorious for annoying his co-workers and boring them with monotonous conversations. In short, he is a constant buzzkill. According to his roommate, Laszlo, he came with the house.

Loki is a recurring antagonist from the Marvel movies and comic books. His persona was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, but he originates from Norse mythology as the god of trickery and mischief. He is the adoptive son of Odin and brother of Thor. In contrast to his brother’s outgoing personality, Loki is reserved, yet he is also sly and deceitful. He usurps power for his personal gain to rule over Earth, driven by spite and jealousy of his father’s favoritism for Thor. He made his cinematic debut in Thor (2011), where he was portrayed by Tom Hiddleston.

On the CW show Supernatural, Claire Novak (played by Kathryn Newton).  Claire is the daughter of Amelie and Jimmy Novak, who provides Castiel with his human vessel.  Claire is a troubled teenager before reuniting with Castiel and eventually living with Jody Mills, where she takes up hunting.  Claire often wears a leather jacket and some dark eyeliner, though her long blonde hair is her most distinguishing feature.

Jane Seymour is a historical figure and character in SIX the Musical. She is the third wife of Henry VIII who died giving birth to their son. Her song, “Heart of Stone” is a pop ballad about her steadfast love for her husband. This is the most positive reflection of Henry VIII in the show, for Jane claims he’s the only one he truly loved. Natalie Paris starred in the original UK tour and Abby Mueller originated the role on Broadway. Cut the neckline of the dress to match the picture, with a stripe of fabric along your collarbone. Use the white ribbon on the bust of the dress and glue studded trim, as well as along the corset and skirt. Glue the chain necklace on either side so it goes across. Want more queendom?
