Trick or Treat Studios Unveils 2014 Halloween Masks and Decorations
Formed in 2010, Trick or Treat Studios caught my attention in a big way a couple years later, with the release of the most impressive looking mass-produced Michael Myers mask ever made.

Through the Eyes of a Haunted House Actor

Cool Halloween Inventions
I was only recently introduced to Kickstarter, a social platform that helps ideas get off the ground both in the “spread the word” sense and the “funding to put it into production” sense. What surprised me, is all the fun Halloween and horror themed ideas. For example, the zombie mugs: Here are a few others …
Halloween and Horror Drawings: Part II
I scavenged through some more of my childhood drawings and scanned them onto my computer.
