Video: I made a *height-accurate* Jack Skellington Costume
Creator: Crescent Shay
Date: November 2023
🎃 First Impressions
I just watched Crescent Shay’s wild journey to become a height-accurate Jack Skellington and I’m both amazed and exhausted just from watching! This is not just a Halloween project-it’s a Christmas miracle, too. Shay’s commitment to authenticity (and chaos) is off the charts. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to cosplay a 10-foot-tall skeleton, this is the video for you.
🦴 What Makes This Build So Cool?
- Stilts for Days: Shay tackles 12" drywall stilts for the first time ever, and watching her learn to walk on them is both hilarious and impressive. The commitment to getting Jack’s height right is real!
- Articulated Arm Extensions: Instead of just “long arms,” Shay makes working hands using cardboard, string, and rubber bands. The DIY ingenuity is so fun to watch-and the result is spooky and awesome.
- Creative Problem Solving: From thrifting a suit to hacking a kid’s Jack Skellington mask and using a $3 foam ball for the head, this is a masterclass in budget cosplay and making it work. <
