This past Sunday, I did a photo shoot inspired by my favorite horror movie character, Freddy Krueger. If you’ve known me for awhile and/or followed my site here, you already know how much I love Robert Engund aka Freddy Krueger and that I have one of the autographed gloves from the movie series, and that I’ve dressed up like him and done shoots inspired by him many times. This Freddy Krueger shoot however was different.
This shoot is a collaboration with my good friend Haley Murin. If you don’t remember, Haley is one of the owners and artists of Street Trash Art along with her talented fiance’ Dustin Tyler that made by amazing Nightmare on Elm Street hoodie that I rocked in San Francisco. We traded Freddy hoodies. Haley and I don’t live close which is really unfortunate but I believe we are definitely psychically linked because we both happened to acquire the exact same pair of Nightmare on Elm Street socks. I thought that it was funny and cool that we have such similar taste that I thought taking photos of us in our Freddy gear would be a cool and fun idea…. and I was right.
I donned a black and burgundy wig and did a black glittery smoky eye look topped with my new black and orange glitter lipstick. I also had my collectible Freddy Krueger bronze mold also from the movie as a prop to show off. The weather is started to finally cool down by me so taking hoodie photos with my matching knee socks outside without sweating to death was really nice.
I really enjoyed doing this shoot and I can’t wait to see Haley’s pictures which I will post side by side soon. She is such a sweet and cool person and I’m very glad I met and have become friends with her.
Hope you enjoy my photos. Let me know below. Who are your favorite horror characters? What are your favorite horror films?
That burgundy mixed with black wig is gorgeous! I want to do my hair like that, but I’m too conservative, lol. I am not a Horror film expert, but my favorite has to be The Ring (first one from 2002) Scariest movie I ever saw! Samara still haunts me, lol.

Oh my god yes! The first ring film is super scary and I like it a lot. The sequels I couldn’t get into that much. And thank you for liking my hair. I have had burgundy streaks in my actual hair which I loved but always go back to black. You can my wig online for cheap if you want to try that look. Have Plans for Halloween yet love?
