Abryanz's nun costume triggers religious outrage

Halloween has come early for Abryanz. The fashion designer has set off some of his fans and followers following a controversial post depicting him in religious attire, dark makeup, and bloody curse words. The post triggered some fans which led to a heated argument in the comments and some trolling.

Abryanz looked straight out of an Evil Nun video game in a rendition of Sister Madeline the titular main antagonist of the Evil Nun series and the overarching antagonist of the Ice Scream series.

In fact, Google images connected his picture to the Nun Valak from the 2018 film "The Nun". However, unlike the fear one may experience from the film, some followers took offence to the fact that he chose this look which they call "blasphemous".

"But wc kind of god are you guys serving, coz we all doing for the sake of God," - mariambentus.

"Is this some sort of devil worship now?" - iamjonahwosh.

"God loves you brother, better choose Jesus Christ as your personal saviour kigandakyange," - fela_works.

"Hell upon us 🤟🏾," - mc_isaac256.

The designer replied to one user elijah_kasumba specifically who said, "I hate this type of content just being honest 😢," He replied saying, "😂😂😂 who cares if u hate or love it?"

Some fans and followers came to his defence admiring his costume.

"I love the energy Mr nun, one Halloween pumpkin would make the theme complete👏👏," - faezallyter.

"Mwe do u think dat is devil worshipping, every person puts any scary style on Halloween stop ur village mentality guys. Wama it is gud Nun thing," - shotgunz_filmz.

"It looks gorgeous 😍," -oranda_music.

In case you're wondering how to achieve the haunting make-up look, this girl got tipsy before starting the tutorial. The video is a hilarious mixture of a swallowed blood capsule, a stray hair, and some very dry skin.

However, the costume also comes with a scary mask if the idea of cleaning off all that makeup makes you squirmish. For instance, this Amazon Rubie's Adult Deluxe The Nun Costume is officially licenced from "The Nun" movie. It comes with a gown, a habit (hood with white veil), and a scary mask.

Some places forbid dressing up as a minister, priest, nun, or any other member of the clergy. Penalties include fines and even jail. However, the legal implications in Uganda don't seem to apply.
