Alice Obvs.
William Peter Blatty-The Excorcist?
I would think most cosplays would either be Lara Croft or Black Widow but they are video and comic book characters
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Carroll
Alice in wonderland, I've read this story before, great Halloween blind.

Cohen goes on to note that Dodgson "apparently convinced many of his friends that his attachment to the nude female child form was free of any eroticism", but adds that "later generations look beneath the surface" (p. 229). He argues that Dodgson may have wanted to marry the 11-year-old Alice Liddell, and that this was the cause of the unexplained "break" with the family in June 1863,[26]
Alice is a great guess! I was thinking Dorothy, but Alice makes much more sense
Frank Baum/Dorothy Gale/Wizard of Oz?
Nabokov's Lolita?
Holy shit! Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell. Trippy stuff.
Alice Liddell was also Carrol's inspiration for Through the Looking Glass.
Alice Liddell also posed nude for Lewis Carroll to draw on more than one occasion.
Apologists have just called this a normal practice in Victorian Society.
Smart parents.
Wonder Woman?
Sure, some author was obsessed with the real-life 10 year old Wonder Woman. And so many little girls go trick or treating as Lolita.
Saw a BBC documentary on this. It is def Alice and Carroll
He also took nude photos of Alice's sister Lorena
Lolita/Nabokov?
J/k, sort of, because a lot of ladies dress up like Lolita.
of course Lewis Carroll and Alice. Always wanted if his 'interest' was more nefarious.
The real life door to Wonderland is the door between Corpus Christi college and Christchurch college at Oxford University.
I have been through it.
I was not late for a very important date.
🐇⏰
Carrie and Stephen King?
Alice must have been one of them lap wigglers, teasing the poor fellow into a frenzy.
it's def lewis carroll. it's not exactly a secret, either. not least because he's been dead for 120 years. not much point making it a blind. further evidence this site is headed down the flusher
This is a gossip blog. But the ideas about Carroll have been out for awhile. Is there any new information? This blind is presented as if there is new factual proof. I would suggest that since literature scholars have not noted any new proof, that there is no new information. I call this blind a bust. (Sorry).
@Simon, It's something that most people don't know about, I only found out a few years ago because I knew someone interested in the books. It's historical gossip, like how Santa Clause is the patron saint of yachters and not just because he says ho ho ho. 🎅🚶♀️🙋♀️⛵🛳
One of the times Wendy Williams cracked me up, she picked up a HO HO HO pillow they were showing as a great gift, and she said something like, "Or for the right person...Ho Ho,Ho!" And gave one of her famous glances at the camera! 😂
I dont consider this type of blind a bust at all! Any Old Hollywood/historical figure blind has the potential to be known. However, I would argue that the average reader or Disney/Burton Alice fan probably doesn't know this info. And, often times, it is learning these odd tidbits that can spark interest and further reading. JMO
Alice in Wonderland
This will explain it all and some...
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1082454356711129088.html
@Vita "spark interest and further reading". Valid point. Thank you.
Steven King is not a sycophant or pedophile.
This is Lewis Carroll and Alice, with whom he was obsessed. He even had clothing of hers, and her mother had to stop him from being around her so much and requesting everything she ever touched. Knowing that, it completely ruined the story for me. (Although I hadn't read it in years, I am just not interested in anything he ever wrote, anymore. Same thing with Charles Dickens. To know that "sainted man" locked up his wife in an insane asylum so that he could have an affair with her cousin, takes all the pleasure out of reading anything he wrote.)
Wow, learn somethin new evry day
I was Alice back in 2011, sooo creepy! I gotta Google this now!
Ha i stil have my Alice costume from 2016
Charles Dodgson was an eminent mathematician and an Oxford Don (as was Alice Liddell's father). He was shy, a stammerer, had a wonky eye, and supported nearly his entire family of unmarried siblings through his work.
He was also a pioneering photographer, and any art exposition of early photographs has a few of his featured. His portraits of children, clad and nude, are nearly as famous as his two books for children.
Yes, he was infatuated with all of the Liddell children (not just Alice), and in fact it's been theorized that his proposal to Alice's older sister is what caused the nearly irreparable break with the Liddell family.
The truth is, the man was obsessed with the innocence of small children, and fairly cruelly discarded them when they grew to adolescence. Alice was just one of many he was enraptured with, remembered only because of the tales he told her family about Wonderland, which she cajoled him to write down (and illustrate), which became extremely lucrative for him, and bringing him a notoriety he didn't seek.
Reading his correspondence is a real eye opener, as he begs parents to let him photograph their young children, nude. Bowing to societal pressure, he acknowledges that the older girls can't be photographed so, "But please, let me shoot Fanny and Primrose! And maybe Mary too, as she's barely 12!" Just reams of letters like that. And his nudes of children are classically styled, not prurient in of themselves, and there has never been a suggestion that he touched or interfered with a child in any way, ever.
But in today's views: Holy shit. He loved small children, he begged to shoot them in the nude, and he many times jilted the tykes when they reached adolescence, in a pretty callous manner.
For reference, here's Alice Liddell as a child, in a pretty sultry pose. She would go on to nearly marry Queen Victoria's son Leopold, who died young of hemophilia. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/283092
Thanks, Jan15, that was nice.☺
Yep Google Alice in Wonderland, Alice Liddell.
Alice drinks mystery liquid / takes mystery pill to take her to a magical place full of wonder and danger
ah huh
sounds like drugging/ pedophilia to me
This is definitely Lewis Carroll and his obsession with Alice Liddell who also had two sisters.
👍
The fucking Q Anon conspiracists have lit on this thread. FFS!
@Brad Pitt yeah you're not far off, Wonderland is like a dissociative state where the child "escapes" while she's being raped/molested/etc.
This is it, no doubt. I know this story too well
Ugh, I had never heard any of this before. Yuck.
road dahl, alice in wonderland
According to Dr. Michio Kaku, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass are about Carroll's theory about black holes in space. Kaku writes in his book Visions that Carroll's theories were not taken seriously so he hid them in a children's book. Now Einstein and Stephen Hawking look good, but Lewis Carroll had the theory before they did.
