Carbon Costume horror game
Chris from Until Dawn
Christopher “Chris” Hartley (voiced and acted by Noah Fleiss) is the resident geek of the Until Dawn group. He’s protective and selfless to a (potentially) fatal degree.
His costume is fairly straightforward though very warm. Basic jeans and sensible boots make up the base. Cosplayers than have to layer a white graphic tee, a blue button up, a green zip-up knit sweater, and a blue winter jacket. The shirt pictured above is not the exact shirt as that shirt does not exist. But if you can get a clear image of the shirt design from the game, many shirt makers may be able to replicate it.
Cosplayers can also add a bruise to the left side of their face if they want to recreate a mid-game look after Chris has survived a few attacks. As long as they keep the layers and the glasses, the costume will still be true to the game!
Loners from S.T.A.L.K.E.R
Loners are the post-fallout survivors that don’t ascribe to any faction in the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Set an an alternate history and taking place in the area around Chernobyl, each letter in the title stands for one faction of the society in The Zone. And of course Loners, well, work alone.
Loners have many different looks but they all follow a generally militaristic look. This means that most of the pieces for their costume are Army surplus. A tan tactical vest, tan tactical jacket, tan balaclava, camo pants, and tan combat boots make up the body of the costume. Many Loners also wear goggles and fingerless gloves. Accessories can include a gas mask and fake weapon, though be sure to check the costume weapon guidelines at any event you plan on attending!
The Trapper from Dead by Daylight
In the asymmetrical horror game Dead by Daylight, the Trapper (Evan MacMillan) is one of the three killers along with the Hillbilly and the Wraith. As his name suggests, the Trapper uses his bear trap to capture survivors like Kate Denson. He also has perks to help him, such as unnerving presence, brutal strength, and agitation. With his white mask, unrelenting strength, and crude weaponry, the Trapper is inspired by iconic horror character Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th series.
SCP-049 from SCP – Containment Breach
SCP-049 is one of the terrifying creatures catalogued by the SCP Foundation. The SCP Foundation started as a form of online collaborative storytelling and has since morphed into a video game franchise among other things. SCP-049 appears in the game SCP – Containment Breach. It is humanoid and appears dressed as a surgeon from the European medieval era. Unfortunately this is not a doctor that heals. Any human it touches becomes a reanimated corpse that is bound to do the will of SCP-049.
Although SCP-049 is itself largely unknowable – since getting too close can turn you into an undead puppet – dressing up as SCP-049 is relatively easy. All you need is a black hooded cloak or robe, a grey plague doctor mask, black boots, and black gloves. It helps if you make the sleeves of the robe a bit tattered and if you wear black clothing underneath so it seems as if there is nothing under the robe but darkness and void.
Silent Hill Nurse
The Nurses in Silent Hill are some of the most iconic enemies in horror game history. So iconic that they have been featured in the Silent Hill films and nearly every Silent Hill game. Due to the recurring themes of hospitalization, insanity, and death, each game usually features a trip to one of Silent Hill’s hospitals, where these nurses can be encountered.
Kate Denson from Dead by Daylight
In Dead by Daylight, Kate Denson is one of the survivors trying to escape from the Realms of the Entity in which they’re trapped. She is an optimistic songbird who tries to make the most of any situation.
Baldi
In Baldi’s Basics in Education and Learning, Baldi is a teacher at Here School who loves challenging his students with fun trivia problem whenever he can! Each time you find a notebook, you’ll have to answer some questions. Answer all three correctly, and you will earn a prize! Find all 7 notebooks, and then exit the school to win! But get a question wrong, and Baldi’s smile will quickly turn into a frown.
Ashley Graham From Resident Evil 4
Ashley Graham is one of the main playable characters of the Capcom survival horror game Resident Evil 4. She is the daughter of President Graham who is kidnapped by an infected cult and is rescued by secret agent Leon S. Kennedy.
James Sunderland
James Sunderland is the main character in the video game Silent Hill 2. On the surface he is a mild-mannered, polite, helpful, empathetic character with the sole intent of finding his wife Mary in Silent Hill. As the game progresses, the player gradually discovered that James has a much darker side and an erratic moral compass. He dresses for the outdoors, in a pocket-filled jacket and jeans along with his trusty flashlight and radio. For the signature patches, pick up some blank patches and paint them with acrylics.
Pyramid Head
A strange, violent, brutal creature in the video game Silent Hill 2, Pyramid Head serves as a mental manifestation of the guilt and anger bottled up inside the main protagonist James Sunderland. The pyramid shaped helmet he wears appears to cause him pain, and he never utters a word except for moans and grunts. His outfit is simple but bloody: a butchers robe, white gloves, a giant knife and the iconic pyramid helmet. Be sure to cover all clothing in a good dose of fake blood.
