A STUDENT’S grisly, blood-soaked Halloween costume was so realistic that confused paramedics were convinced she’d died in a car smash.
Stephen King fan Sidney Wolfe was driving while dressed as Carrie, having slathered her long white dress, body and hair with lashings of fake blood, when she “totalled” her car in the US.

The West Virginia uni student mocked herself on Twitter after the collision, posting a pic of her wrecked vehicle’s crumpled bonnet.
Sidney crashed after a deer ran in front of her car.
She said: “If anyone wants to know how my weekend went I totalled my car while dressed up as Carrie and everyone who was a first responder thought I was dead.
“Hahahaha I’m so sorry.”
Sidney added that while she was waiting for her parents to come pick her up from the scene two more policemen showed up.
She said: “By this time, I was out of the vehicle and making conversation with the people.
“The new officer says, ‘I hate to interrupt but don’t you guys think she needs medical assistance?”
Her tweet, which has received thousands of likes, prompted one person to reply: “Cops and first responders must hate Halloween. This is glorious.”
Another reached out to the famous horror writer himself, saying: “Please @StephenKing you need to see this.”
And one person predicted: “Your future in advertising is sealed.”
