Headless Ghosts of the 1700s

Aladdin and Phoenix are dressed as Headless Ghosts of the 1700's, the Gray Gentleman and the Luminous Lady. The Luminous Lady cut off the Gray Gentleman's head in anger, and now he carries it each Halloween. We hand-made these costumes for our dogs Aladdin (The Gray Gentleman) and Phoenix (The Luminous Lady) from different pieces of material, pieces of various costumes, a mannequin torso, paint and stuffing. The floating ghosts and the headless illusions are real (they looked the same in person) and we did not digitally alter this photo in any way.
