WarioWare costume makes cosplay not fun anymore

Theresa Murphy's intentions were well-meaning when she planned out this costume, dressing up as Kat, half of the WarioWare series' ninja-sister duo. There must have been some misstep during the creation process, however, some supernatural treachery, that produced this absolutely creepy paper mache head. Our best guess is that a dying killer snuck into Theresa's house and performed a voodoo ritual to imbue the mask with his evil soul, all while she was distracted by a Geico TV commercial.
Gone are our memories of Kat as a cute minigame ninja. In their place, we see a black and white scene of Kat pulling herself out of a well, her fingertips crusted with blackened blood and her skin sallow. She tramps toward us, and the only thing we can hear is the smack of her wet, sock-covered feet on hard ground. Our eyes are wide with horror, screaming, but we cannot move.

that was a little harsh, wasn't it?
Just a note, this artwork was posted under "Scraps", which aren't intended to be displayed in the main gallery. They are, as the name implies, pieces of work deemed by the artist unfit for the primary viewing, and often times unfinished.

Truth is often harsh. However, Theresa should throw her efforts into the ring. It seems there's an online cosplay competition by Tokyo publisher DHP. Here's the link:

Who knows, She could even win!
