Tell us a tale so frightful we'll be clutching our frills in fear and throwing out our favorite cosplay because we can't even look at it any longer without thinking of something that happened to the last person who dressed up as them.
I've got a few older ones from the days of homestuck.
>Had a lot of life stuff going on, didnt have time to finish any cosplays for a con
>friend lets me borrow her chii cosplay, one of her white dresses
>really grateful
>having fun at con later
>from behind me hear "OMG CHIIIIII"
>dont have time to turn around before I am hugged randomly
>See gray arms
>Ohgodno.png
They were mostly sealed but I still scrubbed for a day to get the gray out of it.
not as bad but,
>At con
>have a minor malfunction with a prop
>Go to cosplay repair to make use of a hot glue gun
>Fix prop as a group of homestucks walks in
>One is holding one of their fake nails in their hand
>All asking if any one has any nail glue
>Surprisingly no one has any
>Troll in question grabs the glue gun I just finished using and applies directly to nail before slapping the nail on
>burned the finger he stuck it on as well as some of the fingers he pressed the nail down with
>The rest of us just stare in horror
This may be a bit long but I've been wanting to share this one.
>be classic lolita in a small town in the middle of nowhere

>Get to the day end, about 13 hours with this tape on, go to remove it, good portion of my right nipple goes with the tape.
Always take care of your nipples. Supplementary horror story, same costume.
>Rushing before driving to another city to catch my flight to where the con is
>Going to go out and buy tape, my dad's hanging about and offers to go get it for me, tell him what to get
>He gets the wrong brand, it's the same type so I think it'll work any way
>Not until I'm in another country and getting into costume I find out how wrong it is, no car, no places open within walking distance to try find my usual stuff, suck it up and tape them titties
>Very careful of the nipples this time though
>However while my nipples escaped unscathed, the tape was absolute hell on my skin and removed so much of it that I had about 1/4 of each boob with raw flesh and oozing fluid
Since then I have learnt my lesson and refuse to use anything but the sports tape I know will not remove my skin and am very respectful of my nipples (it did grow back).
>>8815673
Buy a binder, seriously. It's a lot safer and more comfortable
>>8815684
There are some characters you can't wear binders for and since I've started being very very careful after these fuck ups, everything has been fine.

I think by now everyone's going to be suspicious of any story posted here so if anon is doing it just to make us laugh instead of troll us, I don't see why they can't outright tell us they'll make more.
I've posted this once before, but it has been a while.
>Meet up at a local cafe in the middle of the day. There is an art walk going on.

>Manager unlocks the door. He is vomiting all over the floor.
>Manager and some of our girls drag him outside.
>He is slurring and his breath smells like liquor. He continues to vomit outside on the concrete in front of the whole art walk, causing a huge scene.
>Manager is rightfully pissed, demanding his car keys and threatening to call the cops. Eventually we get his keys, unlock his car, and then hand them over with a shit ton of apologies.
>We put him in the car where he passes out. There is a 3/4 empty bottle of Triple Sec in the passenger side. We take it and try to call his GF.
>She says she can’t get him and he has no friends in the area, so her brother-in-law is coming to get him.
>We stay with him for a while, trying to force him to drink some water. He just drooling it out all over his AatP vest and pants.
>Eventually we all just say “Fuck it, we barely know this guy; lets try to salvage this meet”. We leave him in his car with the water and text his GF with instructions on where he is and how to get his keys back.

Damn, you went above the call of duty cleaning up after that trainwreck.
>>8817634
Looking back, I realize I probably should have left it, but it gave me something to do while my girlfriend was tending to the guy. I was kind of tunnelvisioning at that point and needed a distraction from completely flipping my lid.
>>8817683
Ah, I understand. Glad you two found somewhere else to room though.
>>8817690
I forgot to mention we were entirely covered in grey paint from Homestuck the whole time too, and we weren't able to shower it off until we got to our friends' room.

This is the best fucking thing I've read on this site since Danger-chan. Thank you anon.
>>8815673
Jesus Christ, am I the only one who knows to get the tape a little bit linty before applying it to myself? If you stick it to a tee shirt or something a couple of times before you stick it to your skin it doesn't hurt as much when you remove it.
>>8815129
I want to be mad, but I just can't. That was beautiful
>>8815897
Half a cider and he's already vomiting everywhere? I don't know much about alcohol, does cider usually fuck you up that quickly?
>>8819067
Heck no. Half a cider might make the lightest lightweight kinda tipsy. Sounds like he pre-gamed.
>>8819067
the partially consumed alcohol in his car is the clue that he has been drinking alone since before arriving at the meet
>>8818766
If you make the tape too linty, the tape might not stick well enough. She was using it to bind body bits, not to loosely hold things in place.
Additionally, even if you made the tape slightly linty, there's something about human sweat that sometimes acts like additional glue, so the tape can still be sticky after sweating into it over a few hours.
I would like to contribute that oil dissolves glue from most types of tapes, so if anyone does get stuck trying to rip binding tape, I'd recommend buying some baby oil/cooking oil and going at it with a sponge in a bathtub. It's going to be slow going trying to dissolve the oil rather than rip it off, but at least you'll still retain skin on your boobs.
>>8818766
If I did that the tape wouldn't stick well enough and start peeling off, if I even touch the tape too much with my fingers before getting it on sometimes it wont be sticky enough to do its job.
>>8819109
Yep. Waiting for the adhesive to melt a bit and slowly peeling it off in a hot shower is my usual method of removal, it's slow but it, aside from the two times mentioned has done me well. I'll keep the oil thing in mind and will try seeing if it can speed up the process after the next time I do this.
>>8817530
>one fanart had Demyx in Aladdin's world dressed as Jasmine
oh my god anon im crying i think i drew that
im so so sorry
>>8817530
The character is Jigen. Sad that such a shit head was dressed as him. Jigen has more class. Would have been funny if you were wearing disney undies though.
Am I really the only person sensible enough to put something like tissue paper (literally anything) to cover the most of my tit before proceeding to tape over it with sports tape to do my side bind? Like how can you people be so stupid
>>8820868
OP here, it was actually pic related because back in the day that was the shit and you binge read their collection for an hour or two.
>mfw I just read about ten comics for nostalgia
>>8820880
Whoops, just saw this. You know, I think I may have tried to find some Disney undies and then gave up because you know, young weebs be like "lawl this would be so funny!" and then you see it costs more than $1 to get a pair and you've already spent $25 on a Leg Avenue costume because it was the cheapest available. Those were the days. Young, dumb, and broke.
>>8821166
God this comic used to be my shit I'm gonna have to reread this. Slightly OT but only a little so, who else tried to get into the Organization XII oc deviantart group be honest
This is why you should never try new conventions the first year they're operating. Especially if they're not actually at a hotel/convention center.

Sharing the boat with normies is standard though? There is a company that does a big goth cruise every year, and they end up sharing the boat with normies too. Cruise ships are huge, unless you can book enough people to fill the whole ship (doubtful) you're going to wind up sharing the boat.
>>8821453
This was a small cruise ship and G had made it sound like it a bunch of cosplayers had signed up and the whole ship would be nothing but other anime/video game fans. Like a floating convention.
Getting back to finishing the story now.

Golden.
I posted a super long story to the wrong thread. I guess I'll just repost it to the correct one since the last one is autosaging, so sorry in advance.
This one might not be as horrific as some others in the thread but it was definitely a horror story to me.
>be 12 years old
>homeschooled up until middle school, very naive
>very talented for my age, put original songs on itunes and have a small group of hardcore fans on facebook
>get message from a fb fan (I'll call him B)
>B really loves my songs and he lives in my state
>says he saw me at a recent anime convention but was too nervous to say hi
>tell him maybe we can meet at the next con
>we do
>at first he just says he wants my autograph
>he ends up following me and my friends around the con
>bought me an expensive figure (despite me later finding out he's extremely poor)
>he reveals he's a 19 year old college dropout >we talk to each other about our favorite anime
>his favorite is one called kodomo no jikan
>had never seen that anime so no flags were raised
>one of my male friends that is with me wants to go to the dealers room so we head there
>we look at the hentai because we're edgy 12-13 year olds and think it's funny
>male friend who is pubescent and horny wants to buy hentai but he's underage
>B comes to the rescue and buys porn for a minor
>idiotic 12 year old me still sees no red flags
>male friend later gets in trouble for reading porn in public but that's beside the point

>>8822080
>con ends, we all had fun but my parents were suspicious of B
>3 days later B confesses his love to me on facebook and asks me out
>had very little experience with romance and wanted to experience a romance like in my shoujo manga
>said yes
It all goes downhill from here, and yes, I'm aware I was fucking stupid.
>conversations start out pretty tame
>soon the delusional 12 year old me has built up a fantasy of marrying this 19 year old NEET dropout
>he uses this to his advantage and conversations begin to get heavier
>starts talking about his sexual preferences
>quoth B: "I don't care about your small boobs, I'm a lolicon after all"
>my reaction to this can only be described as "oh u"
>he decides to move out of his trailer (it was an actual trailer that he lived in with his parents) and get a roommate
>asks me if i can keep some of his figures and manga in my room
>say sure, this is sweet
>my parents are getting more and more suspicious of B but i continually delete my text messages at his command
>they meet up with him and set up some rules for being able to talk to me
>this includes no dating, no lovey dovey talk, and absolutely nothing too mature for my age
>he says he'll agree to the rules
>it was all a ruse

>apparently i didn't clean up before i left and had left some period stained panties on the ground
>i can only imagine B with his fucked up blood fetish and pedophilia popped a massive boner right there
>he uses my bloody underwear to masturbate on my bed
>he even cums on my bed but cleans it up
>when i get back from the competition B says he needs to tell me something, but he's afraid I'll hate him for it
>i tell him i'll love him no matter what
>he describes this entire situation to me in great detail when i arrive back from the competition
>i'm very shocked but at the same time blinded by my stockholm syndrome induced love
>i'm texting him about this when my mom's Protective Parent Senses are activated
>she asks to see my phone (which was actually an ipod because i was too young to have a phone, apparently)
>instead of admitting to her that i had become involved in an abusive relationship with B, i hide the phone
>at this point, she knows something is wrong
>she tries to grab it and i smash the ipod on the ground to try and break it
>the glass shatters but i can see that the screen still turns on

>drop the ipod in the water and collapse, crying my eyes out
>my mom is seething with rage
>"you just made a big mistake, anon"
>she drives all the way to B's house and interrogates him, finds out everything
>this was the final straw and i'm no longer allowed to talk to B
>12 year old me is absolutely distraught because B had told me that i would never find love with anybody but him because i was so clingy and immature, and as stupid and naive as i was, i believed him
>i pulled quite a few stunts to try and talk to him again
3/5
>>8822086
>some of these stunts included making chicken scratches on my wrist
>my poor parents who had no clue what do do agreed that if i could go a month without breaking the rules they had given B, i could have limited contact with him
>i agree
>yet this isn't enough for B and he insists that we simply wait until nighttime to communicate
>one night he is fed up with me not sending nudes because he sent me a shirtless photo, "it's only fair"
>he screams at me and tells me he'll break up with me if i don't put out
>guilts me into doing it by saying he's gotten a blowjob from his best friend and his dog, and if i wouldn't at least send him nudes i was no better than them
>mfw i participated in the creation of child pornography
>he send me a video of him masturbating
>essentially had my first erotic experience taken by a weeaboo sexual predator
>cry myself to sleep
>but at least he didn't break up with me, right
>wrong
>the cycle of him bullying me into sexual favors and then buying me gifts continues
>he even pins me to his bed at his trailer (his roommates kicked him out) only stopping whatever he was going to do when my little sister walks in and asks what he was doing
>he also ended up pulling some similar stunts on my little sis, such as telling her he popped a boner after giving her a piggyback ride
>she was 9 years old when he did this to her
anyway
>cycle continues until my mom realizes it's happening again
>i tell her i feel trapped because he's taken my purity away from me and i can't give it to anyone i really love anymore
>mom prints out a list of abuse tactics
>realize B has used every single one
>mom consoles me and i take the initiative and tell B to stop stalking me and that i wasn't going to talk to him anymore
>he's very angry and he sends me images of celery stalks to mock me (at least that part was kind of funny)
>by the time i'm 13 going on 14, about to enter high school, he still isnt over it

>>8822088
>he attends conventions that he knows i will attend
>sneaks up behind me to try and scare me into leaving

>he doesn't know i've deleted every instance of us talking over social media because it gave me flashbacks
>based parents take advantage of this
>they tell him they'll show the police all the evidence of his abuse if he doesn't fuck off forever
>at last, scared by the prospect of being jailed, B ollies the fuck out of my life
>takes 5 years of counselling to get fully over it
>during this time i had developed an intense fear of men and dated quite a few girls, upsetting my christian parents
>still consider myself bisexual but ultimately overcame my intense androphobia
>obviously not underaged anymore and have a kind, employed boyfriend who is willing to wait until i'm ready to do anything of a sexual nature since it still wigs me out
>B is now a genderqueer pansexual child predator on tumblr, constantly complaining about not having anybody to love and flirting with underage snowflakes who buy into his new tactic
>mfw he's completely unsuccessful in love, in his job, in his education, and in his family
>mfw he was completely wrong about everything he said about me
>mfw im living a happy and promising life and he's not
And I never posted a new song to iTunes or met up with strangers at cons ever again.
Never let underage kids hang out with adults.
>>8822089
Jesus Christ, anon. That's terrifying. I'm glad that you are beyond him. Its a shame he didn't go to jail for your nudes though.
>>8822089
Oh anon, I'm so sorry for you.
>>8821166
Holy nostalgia, wow. I remember watching the voiced versions on Youtube too
>>8822089
I don't think you were stupid in any way. You obviously just didn't have the experience to forewarn you, and when you're stuck in it it's extremely difficult to see past the delusion. I'm glad you're moving on anon.
>>8822103
Different anon here, but the reason we ban adults from engaging in sexual activities with children is that society recognizes that relationships with adults and children aren't on a level playing field, and any such relationship between an adult and a child will be inherently imbalanced and coercive. I'm sure your therapist has gone over this with you, but you did what we fear kids will do, and he did what we order adults not to do.
>>8821166
Oh my god I can't believe I'm seeing this again after so long.
>>8822088
>he's very angry and he sends me images of celery stalks to mock me

I went to a con for its first year in Illinois 2014.
The "dealer's room" was Pokémon cards on half a folding table.
Never again.
>>8821585
Caught it but still read it :^)
>>8822089
>B is now a genderqueer pansexual
Nothing worse than ending up as tumblr scum, I'm proud of you for your life completely turning around after that whole ordeal.
>>8815673
well at least yours didn't fall off. My friend did Guy from The Croods for a summer con and she even made his log to walk around in if she didn't want to wear her boar cape, well she was walking through the hall with the log on and because she's a sweat beast she sweated all the tape off (duck tape) and had to walk all the way back to our room with the tape wrap sliding down to her hips
>>8822089
no anon thats definitely a horror story
>>8822086
>finds out everything
And yet she didn't immediately contact the police and allowed you to continue speaking with him?
>>8822769
I'm sorry but how is someone's nipple ripping off somehow better than just the tape coming off?
>handwashing cosplay to remove fake blood from recent shoot
>removed glasses as they were fogging up due to steam from hot water
>putting on washing gloves to protect hands from dye, detergent and drying

Did you read past that? Immediately afterwards it says her mom didn't allow her to contact him anymore, but he got sneaky.

I would've freaked the fuck out, anon.
>>8822130
back when I was 13 or 14 this chick (who was 16 or 17 I think) got jealous that I was talking to her emo 'bff xdd' who she had friendzoned, and started calling me triangle tits because I was an A cup back then
guess which one of us is a B and which one is a (admittedly small band) DD now :^)
my first con, I did a shitty 'genderbend Dave' cosplay and got a mild stalker case, but nothing really big happened I guess.. I can tell the story if anyone's interested but it's nothing compared to the level of horror here
>Me at 16 at my first con
>First time cosplay is Mello because fuck yeah Death Note
>Find some other Death Note cosplayers to hang out with
>They're all older and more con-experienced, but they don't mind my weeb ass
>Suddenly feel cold metal on my wrist
>An L crossplayer has handcuffed herself to me
>Not freaking out yet because young and dumb
>Just kinda roll with it because fuck yeah Death Note
>Find out she's 23
>Still no alarm bells
>Rest of the group gets up to move on
>Get up to join them but get pulled back down
>Mild panic as I realize I'm stuck handcuffed with L alone
>She pulls me into her lap and starts like caressing me
>Full panic mode activate
>Get up and start pulling and screaming
>She panics and agrees to uncuff me if I don't say anything about it
>My stupid ass agrees and runs away as fast as I can
>Thankfully don't see her again for the rest of the con (or ever again)

Him raping his dog wasn't a big enough sign for you? Gross
>>8829038
Never said anything I did was smart.
Plus I was in too deep at that point. Obviously I realize how fucked up that is after the fact, but when you're in an abusive relationship, you're blind to almost everything terrible your partner does.
>>8822212
was it dashcon?
>>8815673
Bandaids over nips, baby oil to remove taps.
Seriously, didn't anyone learn anything in the whole 'ace bandage' years of crossplaying?
Baby oil gets rid of any stickiness on the tape, bandaids obviously stop your nipples from coming off. wtf. you're just a retard.
>>8829146
>didn't anyone learn anything in the whole 'ace bandage' years of crossplaying
I learned to invest in a damn good binder after I bound with ACE bandages one year and they slipped and tightened around my ribs really hard to the point I had to go to the bathroom with a friend to get help to get them off because I was in such pain.
>>8815129
I am fucking screencapping this.
Bruh.

At first I was like this is some fucking shitty made-up shit who would believe this etc. and then I just. Lost it. God damnit anon.

>go into the bathroom with it and cry
i still have the wig and looking at it makes me sad
>>8833154
You sound very bitter anon, your grandma's friend sounded very polite and nice about your pictures.
>thanks for saying I'm ugly when I'm not wearing $45 worth of Japanese makeup in the privacy of my own home, ya hag
It seems you are looking for things to be offended about.
>>8833887
desu it's kind of rude to tell someone you should change your appearance because they like how you looked another way, especially if it involves a big change like altering their vision. Anon was polite about it up until then.
>>8814960
Ugh. I am a homestuck and I hate this. Why the fuck would you just assume you can go up and hug a stranger anyways??
