Brain Death Cloak
The arms go up and down, they are operated like a puppet.

Speaking purely from my experience last year, the best subway station for access to the participant’s holding pen is probably the C or E at Spring Street. It probably won’t require much too much walking. Make sure you exit on the east side of Sixth Ave. Last year, I had to walk all the way from the West 4th Street station to Canal Street along 7th Avenue in order to get in. I suspect even if you get off on the east side exit at W 4th you will have to go several blocks out of your way to get in the pen. If you are coming in late Canal street stops might be the way to go.

The official website says:

For all those in costume is on 6th Avenue South of Spring Street and North of Canal between 6:30 and 8:30 p.m. Alert ! ONLY enter the line-up on 6th Ave. from the East and South between Canal and Spring !

starting at 6:30 until 8. The Parade starts

Scythe
I got a comment on my Flickr stream asking for a scythe. I made a baby one, anything larger would have been too much for the arm to lift.

Brain Death
I added brains and hair to an old bald cap I’ve had for years. Pretty disgusting. All this is for the Greenwich Village Halloween Parade tomorrow night.
