This is by far AMS’ darkest and most frightening costume. She came up with the idea and we then found bits and pieces of material, foam, yarn, polyester fill. The mask came from a street vendor I ran into in San Francisco while attending a conference.
A vision of a waking nightmare and paralyzing terror in the suburbs.
Halloween Contest
AMS wore her costume to school for the high school Halloween Contest. She didn’t win a prize but most of her friends thought she should have gotten it.

Inspiration
This was the source of inspiration for AMS’ costume. A more benign bug-like representation.










I actually had night terrors the following night.
