John Hurt’s beautiful coat in The Storyteller was definitely an underlying inspiration for our masked characters costumes for Tearful Surrender: The Return of the Nacken

We’re all about wigs, feathers, and sequins this weekend! Currently altering dresses to be as glamorous as possible for the dream witches in Tearful Surrender: The Return of the Nacken

It’s been fun creating the front/back pieces for our Näcken’s costume. Today we add glitter & finish detailing before we pack it away for the shoot!

#FBF Ghostly Hammer Horror inspired shoot we did as an early costume/lighting test for a character in Tearful Surrender: The Return of the Nacken. We ended up going a different route with the costume, but this was a fun day!
