When it wasn’t socially acceptable anymore to continue trick-or-treating, we didn’t ditch the costumes but instead moved them to the parties. We get dressed in our most creative costumes and remember what it was like to really be a kid. The competition steps up a notch as we try to out-do ourselves and our friends for best costume of the Halloween season. Many Ryerson students submitted their amazing costumes to our contest, but the votes are in!
The winners for our 2015 #RUScared Halloween Costume Contest are…..
Best Overall | FeAR.machine Virus
Winner of Skullcandy headphones and an RU Student Life Instagram calendar.
Halloween is about dressing up, being creative and unique and adding a touch of spooky if you can. The DIY, creation of a character and end result made Valerie’s costume really stand out!
“This is a character I made up, it’s a virus called FeAR.machine. The gauntlet and mask are both made of foam and are hand painted by me.” – Valerie Gershman via Email
Best Couple | Shrek & Princess Fiona
Winners of gift certificates to Hair Of The Dog restaurant and an RU Student Life Instagram calendar.
Best Group | Drake & Hotline Bling
