In August 2020, Phoebe revealed to Variety that she has five copies of the skeleton suit. “They’re so cheap — it’s the best idea ever, to make my “look” the cheapest Halloween costume,” she said. “They don’t hold up very well — when you sweat in them, they’re disgusting — but I have a different one for each day and mass-wash them.”
(One Reddit fan reported a different experience: “My b--h ass bought one when I was drunk for $140 on Etsy because I was shopping for a Halloween costume in March.”)
Phoebe went on: “I love things that are innocently creepy. I was mixing my first record [2018’s ‘Stranger in the Alps’] around Halloween time in Omaha, and I went to Target for three hours. … I just love corny, creepy stuff, which is why my first record’s [visual theme] is a ghost and the second one is a skeleton.”
