⌗ notes.
keep in mind, most of these stats are just what renata portrays and shares with others. take everything with a grain of salt!
the boogeyman chose the skin suit of ms. maldonado in an attempt to craft the perfect image of your typical girl - next - door. in all her years of lurking beneath beds and leering from closet doors, she's lost count of how many posters she's seen featuring glamorized women plastered all over walls. actresses, musicians, adult stars, etc. they were all piled into the bogey's psyche and served as fodder for what would eventually become renata herself.
considering she's an amalgamation of what an eldritch horror perceives to be the ideal girl, there are a lot of cracks in the foundation. often she can be seen strolling around town with an unflinching smile on her face, the corners of her lips pulled up just a tad too far. giggles may come out rehearsed and harsh as if she pressed play on a sound board rather than using human vocal cords.
very much: "i wanna be a pretty girl, mama!" -ahs, season 1
as much as she has her moments of being off putting, her human skin has served her well! "oh, a beautiful girl wants to come over to my place? yippee!! [continued haunting nightmares]"
she likes to visit the historical society occasionally so she can read up on the previous horrific events in misery. it's like a little snack.
most animals are quite averse to her. god forbid she goes home with your neighbor who has a few yappy dogs...
she can sometimes look a little too polished which contributes to her general out - of - place appearance. her skin's too clear, blush too pink, hair too perfect; the small imperfections that make up a person's identity just don't exist here.
catch her hanging with some sweet, nearly blind, old ladies having tea and sweet treats at the low tide!
