In case that&#8217;s not enough death-related imagery, the sleeves have running borders of crossed spades and mattocks, coffins and little death&#8217;s heads. If you want to see a picture of the design, go to T-Shirts, then New England Gravestone Rubbing section, then look for the Susanna Jayne stone. It&#8217;s beautiful!<\/p>\n<p>I WAS going to order a fake blood bag, but the list price is about $7.00 + the same amount for shipping, and I&#8217;m NOT paying that much for a glorified juice box. I think I will try to make my own. If I can do so, then I can miniaturize the pattern and make blood bags for my 1:6 vampires too.<\/p>\n<p>Since I have black pants, the basic parts of my costume are now pretty much set. I&#8217;m looking for some more &quot;civilized vampire&quot; accessories, however.
