Pride of place next to the gifts from the rituals.

Everything except the souvenir ticket and popestars sticker was a gift / trade.

I just had to frame the cosplay certificate too...

My first time ever cosplaying (as a janky home made impera ghoul) was at Ghostcon 2024 (back last November). It was honestly something I wanted to do for years before, but mental health stuff always put a stop to it.

Just getting over anxiety enough to leave the hotel room in costume was a victory for me (especially as I had a major anxiety episode and ended up not going, the last time I tried to cosplay in public back in July). Winning on top of that, and then the metal hammer post, has been kinda overwhelming.

It really means a lot to me because of all that.

When Cowbell Ghuleh met Cowbell Ghoul!

I was lucky enough to win a photograph with (and signed photos of) Ludwig Kennberg, the Studio Drummer for Meliora & Prequelle and Niels Nielsen, the original Cowbell Ghoul, because of my Cosplay.

Again I have to give a massive thanks to the wonderful Keyboard Ghoulette over on Instagram for sending me these.

Collection of my really blurry photographs from Ghostcon! The camera on my phone is shit.

Had an absolute blast!

I don't relax or unwind in public easily but I was screaming and singing and dancing along to Popestars performance, something I never do! Best weekend out I've had for a very long time!

I wanna be friends
