HOW DID YOU START
THE MONTH-LONG
TRADITION?
Halloween is my
favorite time of
year, and I wanted
to find a way to
prolong it as much
as possible.
HOW MANY TOTAL
OUTFITS DO YOU
DO?
This year I did 23
total, last year I
did 13. I started
with 13 days of
halloween, then the
next year a few days
more, and this year
I do everyday!
WHERE DO YOU GET
INSPIRATION FOR ALL
YOUR
COSTUMES?
People give me ideas
& sometimes I’ll
have a costume piece
& I’ll figure out a
way to wear it as a
costume.
HOW LONG AHEAD OF
TIME DO YOU PREPARE
FOR YOUR
COSTUMES?
Each one is
different. Some I’ve
created them the
morning of, and
others it takes
several shopping
trips before I get
it just right.
WHAT KIND OF
REACTIONS DO YOU GET
IN THE
FACTORY?
The reactions are
very positive.
People are really
supportive & some
have even asked to
have their picture
taken with me.
DO YOU DO GROUP
THEMES WITH OTHER
EMPLOYEES?
Yes I do sometimes.
Last year I was a
finger
in the fingerless
gloves & this year
my friend and I were
kites!


WHAT ARE YOU
GOING AS ON
HALLOWEEN?
That’s the question
of the month. I’m
not really sure
actually. It all
depends on where I
end up going. I was
thinking of being
part of a breakfast
foods group costume
with a friend.
Probably Coffee or a
plate!
WHAT’S THE BEST
COSTUME YOU’VE EVER
DONE?
The wolf from this
year!

DO YOU THINK IT’S
GOING TO FEEL WIERD
GOING BACK TO
WEARING STREET
CLOTHES AFTER
OCTOBER IS
OVER?
No, wearing street
clothes is the most
wonderful thing
after dressing up
for a month!
