Who Is Papa Emeritus?

Ghost is a Swedish rock band founded in Linköping in 2006, well known for its theatrical performances and ritual-inspired stage presentation. While the instrumental members perform as the anonymous Nameless Ghouls, the lead vocalist appears under the stage persona Papa Emeritus, an "anti-pope" character that changes with different touring eras.

This costume recreates Papa Emeritus III's appearance from Ghost's "Unholy/Unplugged" acoustic record store tour in the United States. During these performances, Papa Emeritus III wore slicked-back black hair instead of the traditional papal mitre and performed alongside two Nameless Ghoul guitarists while occasionally playing the kazoo.

Size Buying Guide

The Ghost B.C. Papa Emeritus Inspired Halloween Suit Cosplay Costume includes:

  • Black tailcoat
  • White vest
  • Black trousers
  • White gloves

The wig and makeup shown in promotional images are not included and can be prepared separately to complete the character's appearance.

How to Choose the Right Size

Before ordering, open the "Size Guide" on the product page.

The measurements shown in the size chart are finished garment measurements, not body measurements.

Please measure:

  • Height
  • Shoulder Width
  • Chest
  • Waist
  • Hips

The recommended measurement unit is inches.

Because this costume is based on a fitted formal suit design, shoulder width and chest are the most important measurements when selecting a size.

The vest and tailcoat should fit comfortably while still allowing enough room for movement during performances or cosplay events.

If your measurements fall between two sizes, choosing one size larger is recommended to provide additional comfort while preserving the overall silhouette of the costume.

For customers requiring specific adjustments, such as longer sleeves or modified trouser length, the Custom Size service is available. Simply leave your measurement requirements in the order notes when placing your order.

If you are unsure which size to choose, you can also contact Ezcosplay customer service before ordering.


Dressing Guide

For the best Papa Emeritus Cosplay appearance, wear the costume in the following order:

  1. Put on the white vest and fasten the front buttons.
  2. Wear the black trousers.
  3. Put on the black tailcoat and adjust the collar.
  4. Wear the white gloves.
  5. Finish the look with a matching wig and Papa Emeritus-style skull makeup.

The wig and makeup are important visual elements for recreating Papa Emeritus's iconic stage appearance and are recommended for conventions, concerts, and Halloween Cosplay events.
