Fans react to Keke Palmer and son Halloween costume
Fans were quick to react to the singer and her son's Halloween costume from the 1935 film Bride of Frankenstein, taking to social media, particularly Twitter, to express their feelings on the matter.
Many expressed their approval of the costumes, with some commenting that they had similar outfits for the festivities of the day, while others pointed out that the costume was perfect. A netizen also proclaimed that the actress would be perfect in a Frankenstein film.
On February 27, 2023, the singer and actress welcomed her baby, Leodis Andrellton Jackson, with her boyfriend Darius Jackson. The singer had revealed her pregnancy while hosting Saturday Night Live on December 3, 2022, stating:
"There are people in my comments saying, ‘Keke’s having a baby, Keke’s pregnant,’ and I want to set the record straight. I am."
The Bride of Frankenstein meanwhile is an iconic film, albeit an unfaithful one rooted in a singular subplot of the original 1818 novel. The film was initially subject to censorship under the Hays Code of 1934-1938 but has since then become a cult classic.
The film is replete with themes of reproduction, fertility, and the Christian conception of creation as well as themes of monstrosity and horror, making it an ideal option for the Halloween celebration.
