A "Swiftie" in Wisconsin is making a splash in her neighborhood and on TikTok after dressing 10 Halloween skeletons in threads to mimic Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. 

Katelyn McLaughlin, a Sun Prairie resident, said she was inspired to create her display after attending one of Swift's concerts in June with a friend. She gathered plastic skeletons and got to work on crafting the costumes made popular by Swift.

"I couldn’t stop thinking about how good of an idea it was, and I started obsessing watching the videos from the show to figure out which outfits were in the cases," McLaughlin, 36, told Fox News Digital, explaining that she placed the skeletons in frames to recreate one of the sets from the concert.

"Working on all of the [clothing] pieces that were going to be on these skeletons was a creative outlet for me in addition to being in love with Taylor Swift. It was a lot of fun."

McLaughlin said the project was a family effort with her kids and husband helping to build the cases.

The skeletons were propped up with fishing line and a friend added lights that blink to the beat of various Swift songs.

McLaughlin posted videos of the display, which she named the "ScarEras Tour," onto TikTok — where they’ve been viewed by millions of people and garnered thousands of comments of praise.

"They stop, take a picture," McLaughlin noted.

McLaughlin said she purchased two skeletons, used some she had stored away and borrowed the others from friends. Some clothes were from her own closet; she handcrafted the rest of the costumes herself, she said. (Katelyn McLaughlin)

"I have met so many people. I have made friendship bracelets and handed them to people who stop by," McLaughlin said, explaining that Swifties have been exchanging similar bracelets at recent concerts.

"I always joke that if she responded, I would lay down and pass away," McLaughlin said with a laugh. 

"It would be the most amazing thing if she reached out. If she saw it, I hope it made her smile."
