New Treasuries!

It turns our I've been featured in a couple of Etsy Treasuries lately! How nice for folks to find my work, then like it enough to put it with other unique items-let alone in the same treasury with Dave the Dead! How cool is that?

Click on the pics to go to that treasury. Better yet, buy something!

Hauntcast Apparel is in the Gross-ery Store!

Season 3 t-shirts and hoodies are available in limited supply at the Hauntcast Gross-ery store's apparel page!


BTW, have you listened to the latest Hauntcast ep? I'd love to get feedback on my interview with My Ghoul Friday. The extended interview is on the "Downloads" page, under "Treats." The first minute or so, the speed is sloooow, so we sound funny, but it does get better!


Part two of Chris's interview with Matt Ford of House at Haunted Hill was fantastic! I was so inspired and envious that Neil Patrick Harris (of Dr. Horrible fame) is all set to do a voiceover for this amazing haunt.


Well, back to work!

A Kingly Sale


I thought I'd pass along that King Architectural Metals is having a sale. I got my plastic finials for my graveyard fence from King Architectural Metals, and it was a pretty good deal. While it doesn't look like the finials are on sale, you might find other stuff you need. Click on the image to go to their site.

Terror Onna Stick!

Still in my top five favorite scarecrows by a scarecrow master: Spooky Blue.
Of course, another is Stewie's daddy, The Grumble.
Spook's Grumble
My little angel, Stewie. 8' arm span, and all.
I am grateful every year that Spooky Blue was kind enough to talk me through this project, especially when Stewie scares the neighborhood kids. Thanks, Spook. You're a total rock star!

1938 Packard

Elegant, lovely and so very classy. This could be seen at the National Packard Museum in Warren, Ohio, in 2008. I don't know where it is now, but would love to find out. Of course, it's still not in my garage, so I suppose it doesn't matter.
The listing can be found here, via Remarkable Cars.

Treats! Yes!

For those of you who are interested, the full interview with Ghoul Friday is up on the Hauntcast "Treats" page! (Which is located under the "Downloads" tab.)


I find it hilarious that she saw this before I did! LMAO!


She was a truly fun person to chat with. And she is far wittier than I, so you really should listen to the interview. 


Happy 4th, y'all!

And if You Pop Over to Argentina

You can buy this 1929 Cadillac hearse for only $30,000. That's about what a new Volt goes for, isn't it?
Listing and other pics here. I know I featured one of these some time ago, but I don't know if this is the same coach.

Another Classic

For some reason, this picture reminds me of the Universal back lot, where they filmed The Munsters.
Via Anderson McQueen blog. A nifty description of restoring an old classic horse-drawn hearse, though I admit I cringed when I read the words "sand-blasted."

Hauntcast is Available!

The latest and greatest episode of Hauntcast is now available, but in a strange and unusual spot for a little bit today. It's in the "Past Shows" portion until Guy shakes off the D.T.'s and posts it to the home page with all its nifty graphics. Not only that, but we're welcoming in Ed Gannon and Fright Guy to the Hauntcast Scream Team, so it should be a fabulously amazing show!
As an aside, Think Geek is having a clearance sale on Haunted Memories changing portraits, so if you've wanted one, you might want to pop over there and check it out. The sale is better than you can currently get at the Haunted Memories site (although you have to supply your own frame, so the cost may end up the same), and will make a nice detail for your house.
