So I'm new to posting threads here on the Universal Monster Army....I'm a collector of vintage Halloween items (mostly tin and plastic toys). Introduce yourself to me, and show me some of your vintage collectibles. Judging from what I've seen so far, I've already prepared my feet to have their socks knocked off by your awesome ghoulish finds, so fire away!

By the way, you are looking at a tin noisemaker made by the Kirchhof company. I picked this little guy up at an antique market a few years ago near where I dwell around Hell Michigan (I don't actually live in Hell, but it is a stones throw away from where I live....kinda out near the Ann Arbor neck of the woods), and got a groovy deal on it.


Some call me "Tim".

Halloween stuff! Oh yea! Chance to show my Weird-ohs stick thing, which I am told, was carried around by a child as he or she went door to door on Halloween.....

Sweet!! I just won an auction for a vintage Topstone rattle stick that kids use to carry around Trick or Treating. It's very Weird-Ohs looking as well. I'll post some pics of it when it shows up in the mail.

this little guy is probably one of my favorite halloween items, not too rare or valuable, a bit worn, and made of plastic. but he is perfect to me, this little dude just reminds me of being a kid at halloween.


He sits on my corner "halloween all year around shelf" in my bedroom. i have to havea small dose of halloween at all times.

i need to buy a good camera, phones just doesnt take good pitures.

I like this cake topper alot too!


and an official vincent price shrunken head my son and I made with my old kit.

Clowns are disturbing. That J. Chein clown bank you have is a dandy!

I think the movie  IT  put me in a new mind-set about clowns. That clown was pure bad news! Tim Curry under the makeup wasn't it?
