If you've been watching True Blood, you know a little something about maenads and may even want to dress the part for Halloween.

Sookie-Style has put together a selection of clothes costumes and accessories for all the True Blood characters, so be sure to take a look at all the Maryann maenad costumes for some great ideas to get you started.

Playing the role of a maenad can be lots of fun because they almost seen to have gone mad in an intoxicated frenzy. The female followers of Dionysus and can reak havok on animals and even humans in their ritulistic behavior. In True Blood, Maryann takes over the entire town of Bon Temps in anticipation of pleasing 'The God Who Comes" with an elaborate ceremony and a ritualistic sacrifice.

Maryann dresses in modern clothing that often resemble Grecian gowns, so her style can be easily replicated with a

long halter or maxi dress and a few key accessories to complete the outfit. Maryann wears lots of serpent and snake jewelry, as maenads are know to handle or wear snakes in Greek mythology.

She has a thing for human hearts, so a fake, plastic heart would be a great prop.

You'll need long dark hair or a wig that can be tousled or styled wildly with the addition of leaves and twigs from the forest. A crown of flowers would also be a great headpiece for your costume.

Another costume element that you might want to consider is the evil addition of claw finger nails that she was able to grow by digging her hands into the earth.

If you can get a few friends to wear black contacts and follow you around all night acting wildy and filled with sexual desire that would be great too!

First of all, I absolutely must thank those of you who visited Sookie-Style.com within the few first days of it's launch on August 31, 2009. I am especially grateful for everyone who was kind enough to share, join or follow Sookie-Style via Facebook, Twitter, and Tumbler even before the dust had settled. Thank you!

Now that I've had a few days to get most of the pages out of the contruction zone, I'd love to officially welcome you to Sookie-Style.com, True Blood costume and party headquarters! This is the place to get inspired, shop, share party and costume ideas, photos, and recipes.

Before you leave here you can expect to be dressed to kill, unless of course, you prefer to be the bait?! Whether you've already been bitten and are dying to be transformed into a bloodthirsty vampire or simply want to dress to dress like the flirty and feminine, Sookie Stackhouse, you'll find a wardrobe for that too! Your True Blood costume won't be complete without makeup and accessories, so be sure to grab a 'bite' and stain your lips red before you hit the road back to the small, swampy town of Bon Temps.

Thanks for stopping by and come back anytime... we're open late because real vampires don't sparkle in the sunlight!

Has the entire town of Bon Temps gone mad? Take a tour through the town and you might think so, but don't stay too long or you'll probably fall under the spell and have a sudden and uncontrollable sexual desire and a craving for dirt.

Maryann Forrester's black eyed zombie puppets dance wildy and have no control over their animal instincts. The maenad's aphrodisiac like influence sends her victims into and an intoxicated frenzy while she is empowered by the control of their minds and bodies. While the maenad possesses the souls of those under her spell their eyes turn black.

Yes, you too can be a True Blood black eyed puppet! Just pop in a pair of blackout contact lenses and walk around like a lustful zombie who is excited by anything wicked, evil, disgusting, or violent.

Looking for work? With the recent string of murders in Bon Temps, it seems that Sam is always in need of new waitress at Merlotte's Bar & Grill. If you can carry a round of drinks and don't mind a little chaos now and then, you're hired, but before you show up for work you'll need a uniform.

The weather in Louisiana is warm and swampy, so you won't need much to complete your outfit. Sookie, Arlene and the girls (most of which wind up dead) dress casually in a pair of black shorts and a white, snug fitting Merlotte's t-shirt and matching green waist apron. Sookie completes her look with a pair of black Nike's, a ponytail and a little makeup never hurts when it comes to tips.
