Become Night Of The Living Dead Zombies for Halloween

Night Of The Living Dead Zombies are dead people that were reanimated. They were a part of many myths but the official Night Of The Living Dead zombies were cadavers of the recently deceased have become reanimated and are consuming the flesh of living people. And now you can turn yourself into a zombie in the comfort of your own house, and scientists, and the United States military will not know the cause.

making yourself look dead

Night Of The Living Dead Look

The zombie is dead. So the most important thing is looking dead. A pale body paint (or gray), dark around the eyes and with white colored eye lenses will help a lot, but you need to add or you will look like just a toothless vampire.

I suggest you create some scars and putrefying wounds in your face and exposed body parts using body paint, or you can even buy them ready to use from the local costume shop. This is really a key step, and even if you only paint yourself and add a few wounds people will be able to recognize you as a zombie.

Clothes for a zombie

Despite the fact that a rotting body is all a zombie really needs, in reality your clothes have been buried with you too so you need to make them look old. Use bleach to make the fabric look weaker and then tear it apart.

If you have real old clothes even better. And a good idea is getting some clothes from the sixties or some other “ancient” time and use this aging process in them. That way you can insert a zombie even into any themed Halloween party.

Accessories that will make you come from Night Of The Living Dead

The ready made wounds and scars we talked about are all that you need. Zombies, after all, don’t need much else, they weren’t buried with anything else, and they don’t use weapons to kill people, preferring to eat them instead.

You can, off course, add a few accessories. Maybe some old looking jewelry. Or dried or rotten flowers that were buried with the zombie but still cling to its hair and clothes. Maybe a will.

Bringing a zombie from the dead may not be an easy task, but turning the living into zombies is. This Halloween show up as a zombie.

How to Make the Iconic Blonde Marilyn Monroe Costume

Without any doubts, Marilyn Monroe is very popular on Halloween, being widely represented. There are certain things that make her unique and in order to be recognized as her, your Halloween costume and overall mannerism should be in accordance to the sex symbol’s traits. Below are a few ideas to help you represent Marilyn the best you can.

Costume & Dress

A dress might seem easy, but in fact is rather difficult to find a style she wore in one of her movies. For instance, the famous white halter dress from the “The Seven Year Itch” or the hot pink dress from the “Gentleman Prefer Blondes”.

These two dresses are surefire, although there are several others to choose from. If you don’t have enough time or patience to make a homemade dress, there are numerous costumes available at My Halloween Store or at a costume rental shop. Another idea is a used prom dress from a second-hand shop. Keep in mind, however, that such a prom dress might cost you a lot more than a Marilyn Monroe costume.

Marilyn Monroe Halloween CostumeHair & Accessories

If your hair is not long enough and it is not platinum blonde hair, you have to wear a wig. It would be great to find a pre-themed wig for Marilyn Monroe.

The Hollywood legend was not wearing jewelry all the time, but she was always elegant. Search for the images of Marilyn wearing a similar dress to the one you are planning to wear and do your best to match her look. Rhinestones and pearls were popular at that time.

Try to find high heels to match the dress, but you can always wear silver metallic or white that will go with almost anything. As Marilyn did not wear gloves most of the time, they are optional. Wear them if you wish, but make sure they match the dress.

Makeup

Glamor is associated with makeup in the case of Marilyn Monroe. So, to look like her, wear false eyelashes, red lipstick, fake mole and eyeliner. Please keep in mind that the actress had a light complexion, so wear a suitable foundation.

Mannerism

Do your homework and be informed. It would be recommended to watch some of her movies prior of starting to create your costume. Thus, you’ll have sufficient time to figure out what exactly to buy and how to play the part. For the genuine Marilyn Monroe look, not just look like her, but instead “walk the talk”.

Making of a Realistic Corpse for your Hallowen Haunted House

Realistic Corpse for your Hallowen Haunted House

List with the needed materials for the corpse:

- 1 cheap lab skeleton
- 3 rolls of paper towels, solid white
- 2 cans of 3M Repositionable Spray Glue
- 1 can of “Good Stuff” Spray Foam
- 2 or 3 Bottles of Tacky glue
- An adequate skull
- Brown gloss paint
- Paint brush

Take an inexpensive plastic skeleton, a couple of paper towels and some 3M repositionable 77 spray glue. Begin by filling the joints between the bone; you might use for instance, hot glue. Next flip the skeleton and put some duck tape across the back of the joints for a more rigid corpse. Next, drive a couple nails into the stomach area so that they stick out for the foam to have something to hold onto it. Fill the torso with foam till it is fully filled. Let it dry fro a couple of days and then carve the foam with a knife to the wanted look. Rip off the straight edges of the paper towels and tear it into reasonable size for them to be worked in the ribs and fingers and all around the bones. Put the strips on the ground and spray glue on one side. Apply the strips to the skeleton, pushing it into the joints.

After the skeleton is fully covered, it will probably look somehow weird, but just let it dry for a few days. As soon as it is completely dried, mix two bottle of tacky glue with two bottles of water and some glossy brown paint.

Paint the obtained stuff onto the body and with a sufficiently wet mixture it should go on easily. Allow it to dry and then continue. Do the same thing with the skull as well. You can change the original skull of the skeleton with a better one, for a better effect.

Why Does Tonic Water Glow Blue When Exposed to UV Light?

Cool and Extremely Simple Glowing Halloween Party Ideas!One simple and unique bio-chemical property of Tonic Water, is what makes all of these fun glowing Halloween activities possible at your Halloween Party.

Tonic Water glows fluorescent-blue when exposed to UV (Ultra-Violet) light due to the fact that Tonic Water contains a certain bio-chemical substance called Quinine. This bio-chemical, Quinine, is only naturally found within the bark of a Cinchona tree.

Most Quinine used, sold and manufactured today however is synthetic in origin, meaning that it was created or synthesized in a laboratory. Both Biology and Industry relies heavily on the use of synthesized bio-chemicals just like the Quinine found in Tonic Water. It is completely safe to drink and ingest, Quinine is also sometimes prescribed to medical patients; used often in the treatment to combat malaria and other afflicting diseases.

UV or Ultra-Violet light, such as the light that comes from a black light or black box, is a form of high energy light in wavelengths that we are unable to see with the naked eye.

When electrons in a chemical become “excited” they jump from a natural state of being to a higher-energy state. As the Quinine, found in Tonic Water absorbs the UV light it becomes “excited” and begins to give off extra energy. This extra energy, now being given off by the Quinine, registers to us humans and the visual world as the blue coloration that we see glowing in front of our eyes in amazement.

Shut the UV light off and the chemical returns back to it’s normal energy level or state of being; and stops glowing.

Shock your friends and wow them with the science of Glowing Tonic Water at your next Halloween Party with these cool and simple Glowing Halloween and Tonic Water Party Ideas!
