This is Addie on East Tenth Street adding the final bits to a project she started four years ago, after taking a mosaics class. The building near Avenue A belongs to her sons.

Grim Reaper Costume

Grim Reaper Costume

I’m hoping Saturday, Zombiecon day, will be cool and clear, and that the stores we invade are not too warm. This costume is really made for outdoor use in the Halloween Parade. Indoors, I’ll definitely be sweating. The illusion should be fairly effective in daylight, but up close inspection will likely reveal the puppetry tricks. The jaw and arms are operated by my hands under the cover of the robe.

But the forecast is for rain on Saturday, I might fall back to just make-up for Zombiecon, and save the puppetry for the parade.
