SCREAM QUEENS, HOLD ON TO YOURSELVES.......

Ryan Burke

 

Back when I was doing drag regularly, the only thing better to me than drag itself, was doing drag at Halloween. You could really be any character you wanted to be, or break away from your signature style. But some queens have a unique, gothic, almost bizarre, or eerie feeling to them, almost as if it's Halloween year round. Of course the Queen of Scare would have to go to Sharon Needles, which I featured in a scary post a week ago here. But some of my other favorites are these gals, who are downright talented, and from the more odd form of drag, but still flawless and elegant none the less.

 

MADDELYNN HATTER

 

Maddelynn is a definite mover and shake in the drag world. She, in my opinion needs more exposure for all to see. And a name HAS NEVER fit a queen more. Her acts are flawless, odd, manic, and can get very bizarre. If your ever in NYC, check one of her shows out, there excellent!!!!! And can you beat that look?!?!?!? It's like the Mad Hatter and Joker had a love child!

 

 

PEACHES CHRIST

 

oHHHHHH Peaches Christ!!!!! This queen has been using bizarre and scare for years in the San Franciso area with her infamous show in the Castro for her Midnight Mass show, and always infuses a great deal of comedy. Another must see!

 

 

PORCELAIN

 

Very proud of our hometown gal, Porcelain! From Philadelphia, she can put on one hell of a show. Very limber, and has even done routines on a stripper pole!!! She is probably very neck and neck with style and the bizarre right next to Ms Needles. And Porcelain can paint a face........FLAWLESS!!! All hail the Dark Queen!!!!!

 

 

YARA SOFIA

 

I had known of Yara for sometime, but she was pretty much unknown to most people till RuPaul's Drag Race. But has she taken off since. Her style has gotten darker and eerie, making her a perfect choice for our scream queen collection. Half the time I'm scared out of my wits what will come out her hair creations, or if one of those long braids or extensions will lash out and grab my neck!!!!!!

 

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,

WHO is the SCARIEST QUEEN of ALL?????
