to my little creepy crypt on the weird wide web. Within this space fiendish fun can be found. A brief glimpse into the wonderful world of Halloween & dark delights. Cooked up in the lobotomized lab of my macabre mind, these random rants of delicious darkness shall serve as ‘paranormal portal’ to things that go bump in the night with the tomb that I call home: Orlando and beyond.
Over time, there will all kinds of stories, videos, rants, raves and anything else cool & creepy that manages to wander across my path. . .
So, its been a few since I’ve posted. . .VERY busy start to the spook season (and the Living-aka work- are giving me hell as well)- Vacation starts in less than 24 hours! Have a quick trip to cover/take photos at Legoland opening on Saturday and then SHOULD have time to crawl from the coffin and spread some spooky love (event reviews, photos and freakish finds on the weird wide web). . .for now I leave a bit of festive fiendish photography. . .
UNMASKING THE HORROR – is a my favorite part of Halloween Horror Nights. This lights on, guided tour of three of the best houses of the year. A great opportunity to take tons of photos and video. . .(and catch a close up glimpse of the detail that is so often missed during event operating hours).
Been a fiendishly furious and fun festive few weeks! Preview of Halloween Horror Nights, Opening/Media night at Halloween Horror Nights, Howl-O-Scream, Haunted Mansion Trick or Tweet-Up, Zombietoberfest. . .and its only the first week of October!! (updates soon -Spooky Empire this weekend). . .For now, I offer a mad, macabre move of yesteryear – two masters at work: Vincent Price performing a selection of works by Edgar Allen Poe (I was thrilled to find the full fifty plus minute flick from the 1970s on Youtube!)
Bonus: Vincent Price performs “The Raven”
Enjoy (no pressure)
Paranormal Post Script:
Run, Float, Fly to Toys R Us for some freakishly fun figures of the Universal Classic Monster vein. . .The exclusive Bride of Frankenstein is to die for (also visit the Diamond Direct Toys site for an exclusive Frankenstein w/table figure -while there be sure to check out the Munsters as well!)
Finally, if that crypt is in need of some morbid music for this superb season, crawl along the weird wide web to Madame Elle’s Audio Works for a creepy collection of amazing audio!
It’s that time – sprucing up the mausoleum here at Manse Macabre
. . . and why shouldn’t the little demon imps <ahem> kitties share in the fall fun? Thanks to TWO Edgar Allen Poe themed haunted houses this year (both at Halloween Horror Nights 21 AND at Howl-O-Scream – more on those DEADly delights later), am going to have descend to the basement laboratory and see what can be dug up. . .ah, yes – Kitty Coffin Beds! (could also save time inthe “end” too).
After a gazing into the (Liquid) Crystal (Display) ball, found a wicked little idea after viewing this image (as seen on the weir wide web at Coffin It Up):
GREAT Halloween site. A cool cauldron full of haunting how-to hints, Halloween Hits listings for the inner zombie (couch potato TV listings), creaky crafts (GREAT DIY printable Halloween-themed wine labels) , wicked wallpapers, macabre media downloads, and much much more.
ROT your Brains out. .
…or be inspired by the AMAZING devilish decor at pumpkin rot! A fiend of mine suggested this surreal site to me some time ago. When I saw it referenced on Oct31st, I knew I had to share it. Go. See. Be Amazed. Words cannot describe the mischevious creativity lurking within the spooktacular seasonal site!
That’s all for now
. . .furiously full weekends ahead (Halloween Horror Nights RIP Tour, Howl-O-Scream, Haunted Mansion Meet-up, Zombietoberfest, Unmasking the Horror (behind the scenes, lights on tour of some the HHN houses) and that’s only BARELY into the fist week of October.
