Creepy Countdown Day 6 - Casper

Here's a fun little Halloween themed movie. Bill Pullman and Christina Rici star in this one. Being a kid born in the early 80s I still had a good chunk of childhood in 90s. I remember seeing this one and enjoying it. The bad guy ghosts were fun villains and the haunted house was very cool! 

 

Creepy Countdown Day 5 - Madballs!

These things were pretty darn awesome! I vividly remember my brother and I getting these while on a family vacation at the beach. I got the green one (bottom right of the above photo) and my brother got a mummy. I always wanted the football madball but never did get him.

They even went as far as to sell bodies for these creepy and grotesque classic vintage toys! Sadly mine is gone. I wish I could say it was lost in a move or something like that. But the truth is it got away from while swimming in the ocean and floated off never to be seen again.

Creepy Countdown Day 4 - Imperial's Monster Toys!

Here's some classic 80's monster toys! Pretty neat little monster characters. I had the above Frankenstein. My uncle took me to a cool local when I was a kid. A place where there were lots of neat and unique shops. I spotted this for sale and he bought it for me. For years and years I displayed it during Halloween time. Sadly it was misplaced when my family moved while I was off living at college. The physical item is gone but the memory lives! I may need to hit up eBay and grab this guy!

Here's a few more photos of some of the other creepy characters....

Creepy Countdown Day 3 - Monster Face!

So who remembers this things?! This was the gross and gory take on the classic Mr. Potato Head. It came with all sorts of gross and creepy accessories you could use to create a grotesque Monster Face. Slime would certainly up the finished result. 80s and 90s were a good time for slime....weren't they?

I'm bet this commercial jogs some quick memories....for me it's Saturday morning cartoons on the carpet with my big bro....

Creepy Countdown Day 2 - Beetlejuice Cartoon

Here's an absolute classic! This cartoon was so awesome! Great memories of Saturdays spent in front of the tv with my big bro before heading out for the day. "Skeletons in Your Closet" was my all time favorite episode. 

"BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE!!!!"

Creepy Countdown Day 1 - Boogedy Man!

In the spirit of the Halloween Season I've decidedt to a daily "Creepy Countdown" photo spotlight. Included will be photos relating to some of my most fond Halloween memories! 

First up is "Mr. Boogedy". Released by Disney in the mid 80s, this tale of a family moving into a haunted New England home stands out in my mind as a fun Halloween memory. Anyone else remember this guy? 

"Boogedy.....boogedy.....boogedy.....BOOOO!"
