A Lydia Deetz costume is sure to mesmerize any and all millennial cosplayers who enjoyed watching Beetlejuice.
Lydia Deetz is introduced to us as the daughter of Charles Deetz and the stepdaughter of Delia Deetz. She is the movie’s resident goth girl, whom Beetlejuice plans to marry so that he can return to the living world.
She hailed from New York City but moved in with her father and stepmother. Her mother, Evelyn, and father are divorced in the original script.
In the musical, her mother was named Emily Deetz and said to be dead. Sadly, her current parents do not take anything she says seriously enough and often ignore her.
Lydia is a very serious but kind girl whose sensitivity goes far beyond what her Gothic style implies. She is also plagued by feelings of isolation from the world.
