Psycho Cosplay Costumes
The Psycho’s outfit is the classic slasher-stalker-killer look. His skull-like mask comes with thin black eyebrows, with cracks in the eyes and nose region for him to see and breathe. The mouth opening reveals yellowish teeth that look rotten and gums that extend to the nostrils and jaw. The base of the mask seems to be porcelain, glass, or silicone. The Psycho dons denim overalls over a jean shirt (with sleeves rolled up) and a long-sleeved brown shirt. He also wears grey gloves with brown cuffs and carries a brown tool belt with some miscellaneous tools.
Depending on the player’s actions, you may also carry additional extra accessory like a gas cylinder. You can also carry around a saw similar to one of the game’s scenes. Make sure to splatter a healthy amount of fake blood all over your clothes to make your costume as realistically-Psycho as possible.
About Psycho
Josh became the Psycho by faking his death as part of a prank on his friends. He didn’t plan to kill any of them. His motive was supposedly to take revenge on those who humiliated Hannah. It seems that the Psycho did not actively seek revenge against Jess, Mike, Matt, and Emily. He also filmed most of what happened, intending to turn it into an internet sensation. The Psycho demonstrates extreme psychological problems. These include isolation, loneliness, hallucinations, and paranoia. Predictably, he relishes in torturing his victims. He loves stalking them before inflicting his cruel mental and physical torture.
In one of the game’s scenes, the Psycho was holding a gas cylinder, which was said to be a reference to the film, No Country for Old Men. It emulates the way the film’s protagonist, Anton Chigurh, holds his signature weapon the bolt piston.
