This couple wins Halloween.
Over the weekend, many folks hit the town to show off their costumes before the spooktacular holiday. While there were plenty of the usual costumes out and about, like the cast of Scooby-Doo, cats, witches, Alice In Wonderland characters, and a handful of other usual suspects you’d see every year, there was also a rise in niche Halloween costumes.
And this one is hands down one of the best.
Last year, a young girl went mega-viral for her intense focus in the pig show ring. While most folks have little knowledge about showing pigs, one key point is to maintain eye contact at all times with the judge.
Karis Dadson, whose family runs Dadson Farms Show Pigs in California. And the 13-year-old has got that part of showing pigs down. She will stare into the depths of your soul while showing you her award-winning pigs.

Dadson, whose intense eye contact is often compared to Tyler Childers’ eyes, has captured the heart of social media since first going viral, so much so that one creative couple embodied her and her prize-winning hogs. The couple is going viral on TikTok for their scary similarities with Dadson.
Well, that is the woman; the man on the ground hardly resembles the strips of bacon coming off her show hogs.
With the man dressed as a pig, the woman is sporting Dadson’s signature red shirt, with a long Navajo pearl necklace and her iconic slicked-back bun. When the costume reveals flashes to the couple in their final form, she mimics Dadson’s intense eye contact, guiding her pig along the way with her show stick.
Not only does this woman nail her show-ring stare, but she also looks scary similar to Dadson, making it a stellar Halloween costume.

Perfection it is. This couple wins Halloween.
