For the true horror junkies out there who've been carefully plotting their Halloween costumes for many months now, you've got to see this video of a woman who completely transforms herself into the Babadook (esteemed as one of film's most chilling antagonists).
We've seen all manner of incredible costume tutorials recently — some tame, others terrifying. Take, for example, a video for how to create the illusion of a reattached arm with some scar wax, a needle, and thread. And BeautifulYouTV taught us how to hack a fake nail through your fingertip (with an all-too-convincing effect).
And there's no shortage of expert makeup and application by YouTube user RawBeautyKristi for the metaphorical monster who preys on a troubled child and his uniquely afflicted mother in Babadook. As she points out, the Babadook doesn't have much actual face time in the film, but she manages to create a complete version of what he might look like in human form.
Per her page, she recommends picking up a 6-ounce tube of InstaMorph Moldable Plastic for the teeth, and lists the other items in the description on her YouTube page should you decide to recreate her chilling Babadook incarnate. And be forewarned, the intro to her video is just as spooky.
What do you think of her version of the Babadook? Let us know in the comments, and SHARE this video with your friends on Facebook so they can try it, too!
