Happy Creepy Sunday

Hey there D-

It's another lovely Creepy Sunday here in Gotham. With Frankenstorm on the way, and expected to be more than hype we've holed up here in the coven and dedicated ourselves to suck admirable tasks as ---

-Baking A Winter Vegetable Casserole

-Watching The Giant Gila Monster

I remember the good ol' gila monster crawl

My questionable movie taste sparked a desire for some Rat Rod images, and boy do I have a few things to show you. Rat Rods and Hot Rods are fascinating. Not only because of their beauty and craftsmanship, but because of what they represent. There's something so American about custom car culture, especially when it's done by garage enthusiasts.

ok, well I couldn't leave out what probably sparked my whole car obsession. Watching the Munsters.

I''m going to trick out a VW one day, they're good kit cars.

I hope you're safe D. Wherever you are.

Masks Behind Faces

This is a late nite entry D-

I've found more old costume pictures and I had to show them to you!

What is the boy on the right holding in his left hand?

There's Something Weird Going On

This witch was doing the one leg way before Angie

This one is really spooky.

I love these gals.

I debated including this one...but it's just so odd... The swastikas, the one pant leg being shorter that the other. The second kid's costume...what is it? is he/she a potato witch??

.yikes

Gangs all here

Here is a trailer for the only horror movie Ingmar Bergman ever directed...I think I'm going to watch it this week. On the 31st, if the "frankenstorm" doesn't kill us, I'm going up to a movie theater and seeing Nosferatu on the big screen. A live band is going to prove the music...should be killer.

Till

time

Halloween is Fast Approaching

Afternoon D-

Here are some odd costumes from other times and places to get your mind running over the possibilities. What have you decided to be? I'm not sure yet, but I am thinking of being St.Sebastian. Is that too gory? How will I find so many arrows? I suppose I could make them.
