I was The Jackal from Thirteen Ghosts 6 years ago or so. I boarded the NY subway with the rusty cage on my head and bloody straitjacket. It was nice that almost everyone aboard was dressed in costume too. Everyone was just eyeing each other and smiling. I just stood by the pole looking really scary. '
Unfortunately, I don't have a single picture from that night. Can't remember why, but it was definitely the scariest costume I've worn.
