For one Boise City Hall employee, the scariest Halloween costume this season isn’t a ghoul, a witch or even a slasher film character. It’s something much more frightening and common: a fatberg. As soon as calendars turned to October, Elizabeth Kidd, the social media manager for the Office of Community Engagement in Boise, decided to fully embrace the spooky season by testing out her handmade Halloween costume.
“I remembered hearing about a fatberg once, and I know that we’re always trying to message: ‘Don’t flush wipes down the toilet. Don’t pour fats, oils and greases down the sink.’” She says she pictured what a life-size fatberg in her head and realized it would be the perfect costume to get the message across. “I just thought it was really funny,” she adds. “And then we did it.” She shares that the entire fatberg took about three or four hours to make using filler for gaps and cracks.
