Mum goes viral with the most epic Halloween costume
Mum wins Halloween costume competition and goes viral as "frozen head in a freezer".
Alicia Williams did not only win her office's Halloween costume contest but won the hearts of many Halloween faithful.
Her daughter, Jessica, shared the photo on Twitter with the caption, "My mum was a dead/frozen head in a freezer. She killed it!!"
Twitter obviously gobbled it up as the photos quickly got up to 14,000 retweets and nearly 30,000 likes, going viral.
ABC News reports that Williams spent two days hard at work to create the elaborate costume that looked to be a stainless steel refrigerator.
Speaking with ABC News, Williams, 46, explained saying,
"I tried to make the fridge look really real.
"I copied the LG emblem and cut it out with foil ... and then I tried to make it stainless steel instead of white."
Williams revealed that she made use of two cardboard boxes and silver spray paint to create the fridge, then sprayed a third box white, which she used as the inside of the fridge.
Using a mini light with adhesive for the freezer light and used items from her own kitchen, Williams pulled off the look perfectly.
"I did it by myself ... and cut my finger. I didn't want to waste this blood so I used it in the freezer."
The mother-of-three also transformed her head so it looked dead yet frozen in place.
She made ice crystals out of out of rock candy to glue on her head and with the aid of her daughter, had her hair spray painted silver.
Williams won a $100 gift card from the office contest but also won over the Internet after the photos were shared on Twitter without her knowledge.
