#things that feed on your energy while cosplaying your favorite character to trick you

[lorddarkkitty]

{This post has to do with my dreams that had involved both Eustass and Killer from one piece just letting y’know in advance. It also involves my belief around dreams so… yea. Heads up}

Okay let me start this post before I forget. (Edit: I indeed forgot to continue it lol)

So yesterday (6/7/23) I had a dream that had like Eustass in it. And he always kinda grumpy in my dreams but never harms me. Anyways he telling me to stay put why I don’t know but my ass don’t like to listen to I run ahead of him through these halls. And the walls were PlayStation 1 bloody texture kind of, red , right. And I’m running really fast and I triggered all the traps somehow avoiding get hurt. ( I also passed like this what seemed like Mario with this vacuum on his back like Luigi and the haunted mansion 3. Is this relevant not really) so I get into this room and I hear him running to catch up to me and he mad but I wake up.

But the thing is I don’t wake up scared of anything or like something is wrong or off. Nor do I feel like I been drained.

Now today (6/8/23) I had what felt like a nightmare but this time is had like Killer in it but he wasn’t wearing his mask. And you know he ate the smile fruit. So he was smiling all the time. But I was scared of him and trying to escape him. I think I was in some weird warping (dream logic) house but every time I’d try to get out through the window he was already outside that window waiting for me and I just turn back and run to somewhere. I was so terrified of him cause of his smile. Something didn’t feel right y’know. which I think it’s cause I watched the horror movie Smile cause that’s how it felt but I didn’t watch that movie the night before or even during the week it was months ago literally the first night it came to Amazon prime for free watch.

Anyways at some point I’m in this bed room. I’m on this double bed it pushed to the wall and that wall has a window and I open it to climb through and of course I can’t cause he outside right there waiting and so now I’m standing on this bed crying. And I must of given up cause I’m not running anymore and now killer’s behind me (this is where dream things get weird cause I’m not in first person view anymore.) and he not violent. He doesn’t hurt me. He loves his hand onto my wait and I’m breathing hard cause I’m crying like ima bout die. And he didn’t turn me around but takes his right hands and like cups the left side on my face like to wipe away tears and gently laying down on that bed. I don’t ever look at him and just continue to cry. But i wake up.

And I wake up with my heart racing like I do with any nightmare that I had but I also feel wrong. I’m extremely exhausted like I didn’t sleep at all. Which is weird. And I’ll explain why cause yea I had a nightmare your probably thinking yea you’re gonna feel like that. But like there is a difference something you feel you just know isn’t right. The whole chasing me and his gentleness before I woke up is so suspicious.

It might be strange considering the day before with my dream Eustass was in I was like” it always Eustass and never Killer. A whole -be careful for what you wish for- moment. Ha. Any dream I had with Eustass in it I never felt like I was in danger. But the dream with Killer I did. I inherently believe that something was chasing me around in my dream disguised as Killer. Probably thought it could trick me to get closer to me like that since he is my favorite character but I knew something was off which is why I was running away from him til my bitch ass gave up. The way he smiled was just wrong I can’t explain it. I believe this cause I woke up as if something has taken my energy.

I had nightmares before where I wake up and my heart is racing but never felt like something was wrong or that I was completely exhausted like I haven’t slept a wink.

Reasons why I believe is cause I use to lucid dream and I remember them really fucking well. Cause they were all night mares. And one of them I was literally BEGGING IN THE DREAM, SCREAMING TO WAKE UP, FOR SOMEONE TO WAKE ME UP.

After that I started sleeping with certain stuff that would help stop that but I stopped dreaming all together for a while. Or if I did I just didn’t remember them when I woke up but I always remember dreams when I woke up. Only after like 10 minutes they would fade away to be forgotten unless I replay it in my head over and over again to remember. But sometimes I’m get scared to dream or have dreams for a long while now cause I’m terrified of either getting stuck in a dream where I can’t escape or dealing with unfriendly things that can lurk in the dream plane or things that can use the dream plane to get to me. Which absolutely terrifies me.

I also think of it as something interesting. And I needed to get it out of my system and somewhere to put it lol.

13 of the absolute coolest family Halloween costume ideas right now from Moana to Guardians to Avocado Toast.

I’m so excited to look for cool family Halloween costumes this year! We’ve moved past the babywearing costumes stage now that my son is old enough to trick-or-treat, but he’s young enough to accept pretty much whatever costume I dress him, and there is a very short window during which that will be the case!

And OMG, have I found some truly amazing family Halloween costumes ideas out there. From a flight of frappuccinos to all the necessary elements of very 2010s avocado toast, to someone of my most favorite ensemble movie and TV casts like Guardians of the Galaxy, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, even Bob’s Burger.

Whether you’ve got one or two kids or a whole big brood, I hope these group costume ideas inspire. Because family that trick-or-treats together…has way better odds of getting more Reese’s cups . Let’s be real.

Starbucks family Halloween costume via Costume Works

If you’re an extra-caffeinated family, I love this frappuccino trio family Halloween costume, including Grande, Venti, and Tall (well, not that tall.) Extra props to this dad for really committing to this role with color-coordinated tights and a tulle puff of latte foam on his head.

I’m only un poco loco for this Coco-inspired Day of the Dead costume set from brilliant cosplayers Sam LeStrange/@deceptology, Carmen V Estrada/@carmenvalentina, and @alittleandroid who show us the most amazing Hector, Miguel and Frida, shot by cosplayer and photographer David Ngo. If the statement you want to make with your costume, is Remember Me, take a cue from their perfect makeup (you can get a closer look at it here), authentic props, and wonderful details like those skeleton arm gloves.

PS The three of them joined up to make one heck of a group Hocus Pocus costume this year, in time for the film’s 25th anniversary. Check all of their feeds for tons of inspiration, including Disney characters galore.

Guardians of the Galaxy family Halloween costume at Sugar Bee Crafts

If this Guardians of the Galaxy group costume for a big family doesn’t make you want to blast the Guardians of the Galaxy mixtape and dance, I don’t know what will. I especially love that a Gamora costume is so simple for a busy mom — it’s mostly about the green face, hair color, and leather jacket. Check out some simple tips for pulling this together on her site.

Fair warning though: you will be giving you children even more license to run around the house screaming, “I am Groot!”

Star Wars The Force Awakens family Halloween costume at Popsugar

I love how Pop Sugar shows how simple it can be to recreate The Force Awakens characters with a combo of DIY and store-bought supplies. And you don’t have to stay true to any particular episode by the way — want to mix Lando, Darth Maul, Po, Luke Skywalker, and Rose Tico (#TeamKellyMarieTran!) then go for it. Though we wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve got a kid who insists on being Kylo Ren. There’s one in every family, ha.

Alice in Wonderland family Halloween costume idea at Coolest Homemade Costumes

How perfect is this miniature Alice in Wonderland? If you want to turn it into a family Halloween costume affair, go Tim Burton style with a dark Mad Hatter and a Cheshire Cat who’s all about the face paint. Try saving time by using a store bought Alice costume, then raiding your local thrift store for the perfect Wonderland accessories.

Bob’s Burgers family Halloween costume via Imgur

If you have young kids, there’s a good chance your kids have no idea what Bob’s Burgers even is. But has that ever stopped an ambitious cosplaying family? No! Look closely at the details and you’ll realize this is a surprisingly accessible idea — Tina and Linda are mostly about the glasses and the hair, Bob gets the short-order cook treatment and dig up those bunny ears from Easter for Louise and you’re set! .

Game of Thrones family Halloween costume at Barefoot Blonde 

We’ve still got to wait until 2019 for the next season, but that won’t stop die-hard fans for keeping the fantasy alive with a family Game of Thrones costume. I think it’s brilliant that Amber’s family used store-bought (and frankly terrifying) dragon costumes for the kids, and put their energy into their own Daenerys and Drago getups.  (And can someone please tell me where Daenerys is getting her hair extensions these days?!)

But if you want to be a little more Season 7, that Drago could always be a Jon Snow or a Grey Worm — especially if Dad doesn’t have the arms and abs that David does here. Whoa.

Avocado toast group Halloween costume at Hello, Wonderful

For my fellow millennial parents, I present: the reason we don’t own homes, *cough*. I mean…this super cute avocado toast family Halloween costume, from Hello Wonderful, where we always find so many of our favorite DIY ideas of all kinds. She even offers individual DIY posts for making all of the components, including that adorable (and protein-packed!) egg.  I think this also makes a great pregnancy costume for a mom-to-be who wants to showcase her bump as the avocado pit. So clever.

Moana family Halloween costume (We haven’t found the source for this picture, but please let us know if you do so we can credit you!)

If your family’s the type to voyage far behind the reef in search of good candy, a Moana family costume is a great choice this year. Especially if you’ve got a kid in the right age range to play couldn’t-be-cuter toddler Moana. Or if you have kids of different ages, they can play her in all her stages, from baby to self-saving princess.

Stranger Things group Halloween costume at Homemade Mimi

What really makes this Stranger Things family costume is the role reversal here, with Dad playing Season 1 Eleven, and the kids playing her favorite snack.(Although we’re all glad El ate a slightly more balanced diet in season 2.) Check her site for a two-minute video on how she put this all together, because the results are bitchin’.

80s rock band family Halloween costume at Design Improvised 

I’m so thankful for this last-minute-friendly idea from Design Improvised, which comes together with a few 80s homage pieces — or perhaps actual 80s-era clothes for some of us — and a couple of props. In fact she pulled the whole look together for all four of them for under $75, and we bet the girls will wear those pieces again. May I suggest getting dressed while listening to The Bangles for extra inspiration?

DIY space family group Halloween costume at Tell Love and Party

Sometimes, a winning family Halloween costume is less about something no one’s ever done before, and more about doing it in a totally remarkable, Instagram-ready way. I’m so blown away by the attention to detail in this space family costume set, from the space boots to the metallic lipstick. Even her makeup is super cool, and the site has tons of pictures and really detailed instructions to help you out. Get your silver spray cans ready though — she used four of them, total!

Picasso family Halloween costume at The House that Lars Built 

Last year I was toting an infant around on Halloween, so I had to include at least one babywearing costume that caters to mama — or dads — and their babe. The House that Lars Built is mindblowingly creative with costume ideas every year, and this Picasso is no exception, with the baby in a simple Picasso get-up, and mom as the cubist artwork. Just know you need to be good at face painting for this one! I am worried that my own skills might unintentionally turn out more like Munch’s “The Scream” — but hey, that’s what’s cool about babies. You can be like, “oh hey, now you’re Edvard Munch instead of Picasso!” and they’d be like, “no worries!”
