13 Cosplays of Halloween: Uniforms of the Undead - Nurse (Silent Hill)

This is it, folks! Day 13 of '13 Cosplays of Halloween!' >w< And the character for the day is... *drum roll* the Nurses of 'Silent Hill!' This one's very, VERY easy because of the availability of materials and the wide variety of variations on the dress. Similar to how I used the designs of 'Resident Evil's' Jill from 'Marvel vs. Capcom 3,' I'll be using the Universal Halloween Horror Nights version of the Nurses, as well as the game version. This isn't for kids like the Perona recipe, this one's strictly for teens and adults!

Here's an official picture of a Nurse from Universal. Many thanks to SkewedNet.com for letting me use this!

A Nurse from 'Silent Hill: Homecoming.'

What's needed to become a Nurse:

• A white dress (a regular nurse costume will work too!)
• Some gray paper (Optional)
• Defrosted steak or red cloth dye
• Beige heels
• Some dirt or mud (found in your backyard)
• Non-stick bandages (found at Rite Aid, Walgreen's, CVS or any drugstore)
• Fake knife or fake machete

How to become one:

1. Open the package of defrosted steak and set the meat aside. There should be blood from the meat at the bottom of the package.
2. Take the dress and use the blood to coat it. This will give the dress a very dingy and very dirty look, like it's been stained in human blood. To make it bloodier, wrap the dress around the steak and roll it around, both front and back. If you prefer not using steak for the blood, make some red cloth dye, dip the dress in it and leave it until you get a bloodied look on it. Hang the dress to dry (steak-ed or dyed).
3. Make a sailor hat out of some gray construction paper, snip off the top peak and tape the top closed. Take a red crayon or colored pencils and lightly draw some scratches and splashes on the finished hat. If you already have a nurse hat, dip it into some leftover meat blood or into some red dye until you get the bloody look on it.
4. Take the dress (and nurse costume hat) outside, roll them around in the dirt or add some mud on it and shake it out to get rid of any excess dirt. Again, we have to make the dress as dirty as possible, so it'll look like years and years of spilled blood.
5. After you get a wig cap on and your hair's tucked in, have a friend or a parent take the bandages and wrap your face. Make sure they leave some mouth and nose holes so you can breathe, as well as an eye hole so you can see. You can use a clear mask and wrap your head with it on, too. ^^
6. Get your shoes and hat on, grab your fake knife and you're done!

This is a very awesome and scary addition to any Halloween party, anime convention or gathering! >w<

So I hope you all have enjoyed my '13 Cosplays of Halloween' event. I'll be doing something similar to this in December, so stay tuned.

Have a happy Halloween, everyone! ^w^
