How to Be a Dead Skater for Halloween

Would you or your child like to dress as a dead skater for Halloween this year? Here are some ideas that might help.

Go to a local magic/costume shop.

Ask if they have any fake blood.(if you want to use it)

Get some white powder and black eyeshadow.

Apply the white powder lightly.

Put on the eyeshadow heavy around your eyes to make them look in your head.

Put on skater-suitable clothing that is big enough but you never wear.

Wear skater accessories, like knee and elbow pads, even a badly cracked helmet (or one with a fake crack).

Have some rips or tears in your clothes if you want it to look like you suffered a terrible wreck.

Apply the blood anywhere if you bought the blood.(preferably on the forehead or on the throat).

Tips

• Using blood may improve the appearance of death.
• Create a fake wound, or glue a plastic knife or hatchet to your helmet, trimmed to make it look like it is embedded, if you like, to make a "cause of death" effect.
• Instead of using or carrying a skateboard in good condition, find an old one, smash it, and carry it, to make it look like it, too, was a victim of the "accident".

Warnings

• Don't put the blood in your mouth or eyes unless you bought that exact kind.
• Make sure you don't wear clothes that you wear because of the blood stains.
