Carbon Costume horror
Ada from Lamb
Ada is a character from the A24 film called Lamb. Lamb is a fantasy/horror film that takes place in rural Iceland. A couple there discovers an unnatural newborn lamb in their sheep barn that is a human and sheep hybrid, and decide to take in the lamb as their own.
This character would make for a hilarious and clever costume for movie fans, especially those who enjoy horror and A24. For the past few years we have seen A24 themed costume parties pop up in viral videos around Halloween every year, especially when people get super creative, so this would be a great one for that. To dress like Ada, wear a lamb/sheep mask or hat with ears, a wildflower crown, a navy raincoat and blue cable-knit sweater to create this recognizable look from the film.
Lorraine from X
Lorraine is a character from the Ti West Horror Film X, and is played by Jenna Ortega. X follows a group of actors that go to a house in rural Texas to make an adult film, when their elderly hosts turn on them. Lorraine in this film is the boom mic operator for the film.
Lorraine wears a casual 70s look with a brown toned shirt, maroon flare jeans, and a brown braided belt. She carries a boom mic and pole and wears black headphones.
Pooh from Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey
After Winnie-the-Pooh entered the public domain on January 1, 2022, Rhys Frake-Waterfield set out to write, produce, and direct a gory horror film based on the property. In Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, an adult Christopher Robin returns to Hundred Acre Wood after a 5 year absence. He finds the land desolate and the creatures starving and feral. Pooh and Piglet ambush Christopher and his wife, dragging them into the woods.
Mickey from Mickey’s Mouse Trap
With Disney’s copyright on the classic cartoon Steamboat Willie expiring, creators wasted no time taking advantage. On the very day the Mickey Mouse short entered the public domain – January 1, 2024 – a trailer for a horror slasher called Mickey’s Mouse Trap dropped, continuing the tradition of the previous year’s Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. In the film, a killer masked as Mickey Mouse (Simon Phillips) stalks victims at a late-night birthday party in an amusement park. To take your costume from mascot to monster, cut out or black out the eye holes of your rubber Mickey mask.
