About this deal

There are a few flashes in the movie where we see The Shining Twins lying dead and covered in blood. The Shining costume would look awesome at halloween with the addition of a little blood. You can stop here, or if you really want to creep people out, you can add fake blood splatters to the front of the dresses. You will need a short sleeved dress that is pale blue in color. Ideally, they should hang around knee length.

It went fast, even though I was making two dresses at a time, liners included. I followed the directions for the Regency bodice, minus the sleeve cuffs which I replaced with gathered lace, and kinda winged it for the collar and skirt. From Bruce Willis to Greek Royalty, Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece, celebrities love to recreate The Shining Twins costume.

Photo Courtesy of www.dailymail.co.ukTwins have been making unsettling appearances in horror films and novels for decades. Just like their circus-like attention in everyday life, there’s something about twins that gives them great horrific potential: extreme similarity, the fact they are virtually indistinguishable, and their deep connection. Seeing twins in horror movies is one of those universal rules that almost always signals something sinister. The best representation of this is the Grady twins in The Shining. They wear the slides on the left side of their heads and they appear to be shaped like a flower and pink in color.

She has slept in our bed for like the last four nights,” Harris said. “I think it was a little scarier than she thought.”When someone mentions creepy twins, these are the first ones that come to mind every single time. The Grady twins were the first use of twins as nothing but an image of horror. This is why their 2-minute scene is so impactful. Cultural Influence of The Shining Twins My niece and I wore these costumes to Comicpalooza in Houston one day, and my friend Melissa and I wore them to Comicpalooza the next day. We held hands and creeped out a lot of people, even that clown from American Horror Story, so I’ll take that as a win!

But they are creepy before you even see this image! We were also invited to walk the runway at the Villain Vogue Fashion Show at DragonCon in Atlanta, so we got to creep out an even larger audience there. Since masks were mandated at that convention, we had matching Overlook Hotel carpet masks. We thoroughlyenjoyed ourselves in these costumes and are looking forward to wearing them again! Few things have given me the chills like The Shining Twins costume. Call me old, call me crazy, but you can’t deny the cultural influence of the movie The Shining. Especially the Grady twins and the chilling twins costume they wore in the movie. And you can’t deny the impact they had on the perception of twins (especially identical twins). The image of them standing in the hotel corridor holding hands and chanting to Danny is undeniably iconic and creepy. Even today, most people still understand the references even if you’ve never seen The Shining. I really liked how the gathered lace at the collar turned out. It was very clean. But I didn’t love the sloppy lace sleeve “cuffs” or the ungathered lace skirt hem…so I added more! Originally I stitched gathered lace to the inside of the 2/3 centermost sleeve hems, so I just added lace to the outside as well. And I gathered a long section of lace and stitched directly on top of the ungathered lace on the skirt. Much better!

These pink ribbons should be tied around your waist with a bow tied at the front. The bows should be small with the ends of the ribbons hanging to the bottom of the dress. To really pull off your Grady Twins costume perfectly, you are going to need a twin. If you aren’t one half of a set of twins get one of your friends in on the look with you. Remember you don’t have to look identical, especially if you buy all matching pieces for your costume, to give everyone a scare as the creepy little girls we all hope never ask us to come and play. According to www.PopHorror.com, the Grady twins rank #2 in the top 10 Creepy Twins in Horror Films. 42 years later, and The Shining is still considered one of the most frightening films ever made. In fact, it was scientifically “proven” to be the perfect horror film by King’s College London researchers in 2004. The Shining Twins are immortalized and endlessly recreated year after year as Halloween costumes.
