Castle Grayskull

This was built for ComicCon 2008. I wonder what happened to it once the convention was over?

Coffin couch (version 2.0)

a couch shaped like a coffinA while back I wrote about this brand of coffin couches. Well, believe it or not, someone else has come up with their own version. (Seen pictured above). Personally, I prefer the look of the more modern, leather coffin couch. On the other hand though, I do appreciate the way this one folds up into a coffee table. Aw hell, I'll just get one of each.

Monster buckles

One of my favorite artists, Elizabeth McGrath, created this awesome two-headed bat for the fine folks at Monster Buckles. It's available as either a belt buckle or necklace.

Be sure to check out the rest of their awesome horror-inspired buckle collection. They have everything from the very cool zombie buckle with movable jaw (seen above) to hearses, Frankenstein monsters, cyclopes, and more.

Frankenstein loves Burger King!














I've got to visit this Burger King! It's located in Niagra Falls, Ontario right next door to "The House of Frankenstein", a year-round haunted attraction. When the fast food franchise went up on the corner, the House of Frankenstein people constructed a giant Whopper-lovin' monster that appears to be busting though the store's roof.

Damn those Canadians and their genius combinations of things I love!

Scary Hard Maze

Not necessarily haunt-related, but certainly very interesting (and addictive). Use your mouse to guide the cursor through the maze. My high score is 535. Maybe you can do better.

**Be sure to turn up your speakers. The game announces your score at the end of play. For some reason, the website hosting the game defaults to an extremely low audio setting. Unless you really crank the speaker on your computer, your score will sound like a cross between a whisper and the adult characters in the "Peanuts" cartoons.

Good luck!

Custom shower curtains

They're certainly not cheap, but I see a lot of haunted house potential here.

Send this company a photo and they'll turn it into a custom-made shower curtain.

Hmmmm... what image shall I send? A skeleton taking a bath? A decrepit shower with broken tiles and rusted pipes? Ghosts pouring out of the faucet?
