The Friday the 13th: Horror at Camp Crystal Lake board game comes in at my store today.  Pretty excited.  They didn't really release much info about it until this week, so I'm cautiously optimistic.  We liked their It: Evil Below game a lot, so I'm hoping this is good.

I suppose everybody knows, but several of us got one of these from Super 7.



It's sort of ironic that you can get a working re-issue of the original Penn-Plax aerator for less than this facsimile is being re-sold for.

Haunted hearse


Just picked this up today. "The Old Dark House" (1963) was a William Castle/ Hammer production. There are things I love about the remake, including the opening credits designed by Charles Addams, and that the film took place in Oakley Court, which a lot of people remember as Frankenfurter's Castle in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show".  The House in the poster, is a Charles Addams design.
What ever happened to my Transylvania Twist?

(Excuse the cross post, but I really thought this was worth calling attention to.  I've been away for a bit, so sorry if it's been mentioned already...)

So, Universal Studios Florida has recently opened up a Halloween Horror Nights / Monsters "Tribute Store" inside of the main park, between the Jimmy Fallon and Mummy rides.   The store is set up like a haunted house, lots of cool merch, some reissues of past HHNs, going back to 1991.

BUT - the absolute COOLEST JAW DROPPING PART - THIS LAST WEEKEND THEY INSTALLED A WORKING FRANKENSTEIN MOLD-A-RAMA MACHINE!!! ONLY $6 A POP!





They also have a whole line of retro merch in the other gift shops.  I bit hard.  ;D





Really wanted to get the news out there as they already started popping up for resale.
Stay sick. Turn blue. Drop dead.

Looks like they're expanding the 'World's Smallest' toys  in a big way.  My store got in the new Masters of the Universe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, GI Joe, and MEGO MONSTER ENTRIES today!



I think Target carries these?  I've seen some older ones there before, like Slinky and Stretch Armstrong.

I do think it's worth mentioning that these are not done with cloth outfits.  They are entirely cast plastic.  However, they come in plastic versions of their packaging that you can take them out of and put them back in without damage, and some come with a TEENY TINY bagged accessory!

Why does Dracula look like a cross between Freddie Mercury and a contestant on Ru Paul's Drag Race?!?!

Picked up the Mummy hand from Lowe's. Makes for a cool display I think with the Mummy Head that Target had a couple of years ago.

It's the generic Dracula they did after they did the 2 Lugosi versions.   I hate it,  frankly.   But the Orlok, Frankenstein's Monster,  and Invisible Man are very cool!

I'd love to see a video of them all turned on and the hands crawling around!  :)

Is there a left hand, or are they all rights?
