Got this rare (I guess) Spanish card/sticker. Paid way too much for it, seeing as I'm not really a card collector.

My Carfax Abbey Dracula arrived while I'm a work so I'll post pictures of it alongside my other NECA Universal Monsters later.
For now, here's a Black and White of Transylvanian Drac heading upstairs for his first bi-er, drink of the mo- er, evening!

So here he is....

Altogether, he looks very cool although I would have preferred another right gloved hand beside the came holding one.

"I long to go through the crowded streets of your mighty London, to be in the midst of the whirl and rush of humanity, to share its life, its change, its death, and all that makes it what it is."
From the novel Dracula by Bram Stoker

"Pardon me, I could not help overhearing your name. Might I inquire, if you are the Doctor Seward, whose Sanitarium is at Whitby?....I am Count Dracula. I have just leased Carfax Abbey, and understand that it adjoins your grounds.....I shall do very little repairing. It reminds me of the broken Battlements of my own castle in Transylvania....to die, to be really dead, that must be glorious! There are far worse things awaiting man than death!"
From the 1931 film by Tod Browning starring Bela Lugosi

have to say, my Universal Monsters and Back to the Future shelves are looking pretty good! (Still gotta get Griff tho!)

Now I'm thinking about the idea that we get a Remco card back salute figure with glow in the Dark figures.

At first, I thought that the Carfax Abbey body would be the preferred option, but now after looking closer I have to go with the Transylvanian model since the original Remco mini monster has the medallion. That being the case, it might not be a bad idea to make the medallion ribbon white so it's closer to the smaller figure.
As far as the head goes, I'm inclined to say we should have him come with the grimacing head as it matches the Remco head almost perfectly (just add the blood dribbles and it's perfect!
Finally, the cape. Well, we've had a plain black cape with the Transylvanian figure and the silver lined Carfax Abbey version.
It seems only fair that IF we ever get the GID figure, he should come with a red lining cape.

Got myself a new game based on very little information called Halloween Never Ends.  Wasn't expecting much, but boy, was it still a disappointing purchase.  Hardest I've struck out on a blind but in a long time.  Even The Shining game was better than this.  Thankfully I have a copy of another game called Armata Strigoi coming that has positive buzz and looks like a great time.  That should cancel it out.

Finally got that last Spook Stories Creature card! Great looking card for what seemed like a good price. (Though I ain't no expart on setch things.)

I've only seen the Frank Accessory Set at Target.  Haven't seen the mummy one there at all.

One for the monster game shelf.  This is a cooperative game, where a group of werewolves storm a vampires castle.  As the game progresses, the castle starts to crumble and the werewolves need to kill the vampire and make their escape.  Its apparently based on a album by a band called Powerwolf, who I am unfamiliar with.  I also got the expansion, which adds a Cobra demon and minis for maidens that the werewolves have to rescue before they get turned into succubi.

I needed some werewolf representation in the collection, and most of the games are party games with hidden roles, which I'm not fond of and usually require more people than I typically play with.

I scored this awesome vampire doll recently. It is a one of a kind that was made by Ed Repka
for a toy show at MF Gallery in NYC back in 2007. It's 11 inches tall.
