Craiger as Gellert Grindelwald from "Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them"

 

Craiger was SUPER excited to be Gellert Grindelwald from "Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them."
Not many people remember that Johnny Depp was the villain of that entire series.  Craiger enjoyed growing his hair out so he could spike it & color it a greyish blond.  He hated the mustache, but it was a must for the character.

I actually REALLY LOVED this costume.  I bought a lot of the costumes this year because I've been so busy with wedding things, but this one I found thrifted pieces or bought pieces off amazon & altered them to fit the character & it was SO MUCH FUN.

Craiger is a character in real life.  While we got pictures taken, he would point his wand at EVERY SINGLE PERSON walking past us & yell "Avada Kadavra!"  We were all laughing SO hard every time he did it.  One pair of joggers literally stopped, turned around, & said, "Did you just Avada Kadavra me?"  We all laughed really hard at that.

I also love how our photographer edited his eyes to match Gridelwald's eyes (one dark, one light).  This one was one of my favorites.
