Father-Son Duo 'Freak Out' the Internet by Dressing as One Another
Paul and Bobby Evers of Bend, Oregon, totally nailed their Halloween costumes.
— -- A father and son from Oregon took the Internet by storm today after a frighteningly confusing photo of the pair dressed as one another was posted online.
"There's zero Photoshop on that photo," dad Paul Evers of Bend, Oregon, told ABC News. "It's pretty wild because the comments we're seeing online are pretty consistent with the reactions we are getting in person."
Paul, 54, said a friend of his son Bobby posted a photo today of the father-son duo dressed as each other for Halloween to Imgur, where it quickly racked up 1.2 million views.
Bobby Evers, 26, told ABC News that he and his dad Paul work together at a creative agency where they wore their costumes to baffle their co-workers.
"It was probably the funniest day of my life," Bobby said. "We basically stuck at each other's hips the entire day and saw people we knew and freaked out every single one of them."
The two men said to prepare switching roles, they both grew out their facial hair, exchanged clothing and used makeup.
Because Bobby has long eye lashes, Paul said he wore false lashes to mimic his son's distinctive feature.
"We had a lot of fun," Paul said. "Bobby and I, we didn’t realize how much our faces were similar. We laid one of the photos over the other and it was a nice surprise for us as well."
While they didn't win a prize, Paul and Bobby said they plan on continuing a sporadic tradition of dressing as one another in the future.
