| 1391 | Article | Vaporman87 | I am picturing Frankenstein's monster in the traditional look sitting in a chair, turning his head up to the camera, and saying "Welcome to Masterpiece Theater" in his best British accent. | Oct 07, 2014 |  | |
| 1392 | Article | Benjanime | how did you manage to make your own article background? o_O either way, great article as always vkimo :) | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 08, 2014 | |
| 1395 | Article | NLogan | @Vaporman <img style="width: 316px; height: 297px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_cMdbfkl3Rz4/Sw9evJboz4I/AAAAAAAAFyY/-JNor6aUbxQ/s800/bride.jpg"><br> @Vkimo somebody has to stick up for monsters. I mean you throw one little girl in a lake and it turns out she can't swim and all the sudden everybody is like pitchforks and torches, and now being compared to football jocks. | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 08, 2014 | |
| 1396 | Article | vkimo | @Ben Do those 8 bit sprites look familiar? I actually got the idea from your bonus review of Monster Party last year. | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 08, 2014 | |
| 1398 | Article | Benjanime | indeed they do! and a very nice touch as well | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 08, 2014 | |
| 1400 | Article | Vaporman87 | @NLogan: Ha! Frank is deep in thought about the dangers ISIL/ISIS and Ebola pose. | Flannel Cornucopia | Oct 08, 2014 | |
| 1368 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Packed to the gills with Halloween goodness, the Creature would approve! Your love ofnthe holiday ismplain to see. Thanks for that odyssey of great costumes and memorabilia. I would have loved to have enjoyed classic Monster Movies in 3-D on TV, instead all we got were John Wayne films. But I was there at 7-11 to get my Hondo glasses nonetheless. Loved those spooky LPs. I had a Haunted Mansion record growing up that dramatized the ride, I can still hear the Raven's eery caw. Those orange monster books were a favorite for me as well, the one for Murders at the Rue Morgue was the only one I considered boring, so it only got one check out from the school library. Happiest of Halloweens to you and your family! | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 04, 2014 | |
| 1372 | Article | Vaporman87 | So much good stuff here... great stuff! The story of Halloween and your family's reverence for it is awesome. And you have so many great items that you can look to to inspire you to recapture the love of Halloween every year. I can only wish that my dad felt the same way about these occasions. For mine, it was more or less a night to relax in the quiet of our absence. My mom made an effort get us in the mood with decorations in the house and something festive to eat but... no. You guys really make it a family affair and that's what I strive to do with my own family. We do the *gasp* family costume thing. LOL. Every year. It's a real treat and I know that my kids will look back on it fondly... the idea that we enjoyed the night TOGETHER. Thanks for letting us experience Halloween through your eyes from yesterday and today. It was awesome. | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 04, 2014 | |
| 1373 | Article | vkimo | If Halloween was an indigenous tribe, you discovered them, enslaved them, and established a top grade rubber facility all in a very short time. Excellent work. So much good stuff here. I'm really impressed at your near encyclopedic recollections. I was floored when you would post some rare merchandise then state that it was from your childhood collection! Most of that stuff is hard to come by as a collector so having it from youth makes it all the more special. I love the personal pics. Seeing your brother and cousins all stuffed on the plaid couch with the fake flowers on the table and the telephone book sized Bible really capture the moment. That must be pretty cool being a twin as well. You guys could really pull off some shenanigans. One of you dresses in normal clothing and the other in a costume and trick or treat at the same houses and have people scratching their heads in deja vous induced trauma. Great article, fun read! | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 04, 2014 | |
| 1375 | Article | NLogan | @Hoju I didn't know they did Hondo in 3D on TV in 1991. I had to use my googlefu to see what the glasses looked like. Did you have the ones with the Duke on it or the Apache? I hope you still have the Haunted Mansion record. I would be digging through attics and basements for that little beauty. @Vaporman I wanna see photos of this year's Scooby Doo gang in the forums or something. The important part is that you are doing it together. That alone makes it worth it. The kids feel they are a part of something memorable. Group costumes can be awesome and are usually funny but it is so hard to get everyone in a costume they like while staying in the theme. I saw Tetris piece costumes once that interlocked it was pretty cool. Without any girls in the family except my wife that makes it difficult to find the right group costume as well. @vkimo I wish I had a photographic memory. My googlefu is exceptionally strong and I can always look for brand names etc on the stuff i have. Even your reference to a telephone sized book is fast becoming retro as phone books are going extinct. You have retro in your blood. | NLogan's Retro Halloween Overload | Oct 04, 2014 | |
