At snail’s pace, June proves that the best things in life—and costumes—are worth the wait
PARK CITY, Utah — TownLift may not have a costume contest this year, but we definitely know someone who places at the top of our list—and she’s not in any hurry about it.
Ten-year-old June has become Park City’s most unlikely viral sensation, and she didn’t even have to leave her own backyard to do it. The local fourth-grader’s Instagram debut in a jaw-dropping homemade snail costume has racked up more than 1.5 million views and counting, proving that sometimes slow and steady really does win the race—or at least the internet.
Inspired by the whimsical aesthetic of Wren Cox designs, June’s illuminated shell costume is the result of months of dedication from her mother, Tori, who began construction way back in August. The glowing, intricately spiraled shell—complete with purple antenna bobbers—has captivated viewers across the country who can’t seem to scroll past the enchanting woodland creature.
“At this pace, she might be Park City’s first snail-ebrity,” one commenter quipped on the viral post.
The family costume is equally charming, with mom Tori dressed as a mushroom and dad Ryan suited up as a garden gnome.
So if you’re trick-or-treating on downtown Main Street this Halloween, keep your eyes peeled for this slow-moving celebrity. Just don’t ask for her autograph too quickly—she’s taking her time, and honestly, we’re here for it.
