Reminder: Fuck Spirit Halloween

It’s the 9th of October and it’s my annual reminder that Spirit Halloween is a peddler of cheap shit and horribly racist and sexist costumes (and just some downright idiotic ones).  And that’s even before you factor in the allegations of their parent company stocking goods which are claimed to use stolen designs. I mean, …

Music In Costume: The Groovie Ghoulies dress up as The Ramones

I kind of like the cover more than the original. Both are excellent, but the guitar from the Groovie Ghoulies rendition (particularly this one from their ‘Monster Party’ collection) is fast and dirty. Which one do you prefer? VS

Stop the Countdown!

Over the past weekend, I walked into a Party City to kill some time and see if there was any creepy-Birthday related supplies as a last minute celebration of a particular bat-winged DJ I know. And, despite it not even being August, there was a section that had been cleared out, plastered with orange wallpaper …

El Santo de Mayo 2014!

Just like last year, we have an important update about El Hijo del Santo. Sadly he is retiring due to spine injuries that will prevent him from wrestling anymore. On the plus side, the injuries are not severe enough to keep him from leading a normal life. Let’s look back on his career with the …

It’s Free Comic Book Day!

Because they provide a valuable service to fans by offering plenty of comic books, horror magazines, DVDs, toys, models and so much more! Their contributions to the economy don’t hurt, either.

The 5th Annual GdL16 Easter Egg Hunt

Just like last year, your goal is to find all articles that reveal hidden “Easter Eggs” in the disc being reviewed that are hidden among other articles without any hidden goodies. The total amount of Easter Eggs is fairly low this year, but new players can check out the previously-linked installment for more fun. Let …

Papercraft Jiangshi

As much as I enjoyed last year’s Jiangshi inspired papercraft project, I wanted to focus on something a little more traditional this year. But it turns out that finding downloadable Chinese hopping vampire papercraft models online is much harder than one might think. I had originally wanted to showcase this cool jiangshi papercraft, but was …

Creepy Santa Doll

I know that I’ve been relying on music videos based around the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society’s Christmas albums over the last few years, but I’m in the mood for a change. As much as I love their work, I don’t want to give away to much of the HPLHS’ hard work away. With this in …
