New hobbie

[BornOfFire]

With videogames at a stale point in my life I been getting into another hobby. Being a big fan of Halloween I have slowly been getting into the horror scene. Here are some pics of what I have been up to lately and some things I've been collecting, Enjoy!



Well a few weeks ago I went down to Burbank to a new convention called Monsterpalooza. It's a horror themed show that has artist's booth where they can sell there stuff and also a museum of things like; on scene props and monster busts. There were tons of famous people there too including:

Sid Haig (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Haig) who played Captain Spaulding in House of 1000 Corpses

I came up to a mask that was being raffled off and decided what the hell, why not. I ended up wining the mask! It sells for $3000! (Want to buy it?, lol)

Then I met one of my friends that was the first person to produced silicone masks. He showed me around and introduced me to some great people of the industry. After hanging out at Monsterpalooza for a couple hours on Sunday, he invited my girlfriend and I to Drac Studios. Drac has worked on everything from The Lost Boys to Mrs. Doubtfire, and most recently with Night at the Museum 2. Here are a few pics, lets see if you guys can guess what movies these are from:

And finally I have been a fan of Nightmare on Elm Street since I was a kid and with me getting into Halloween and horror, it was only a matter of time before i picked up something up. I'll be posting more on my NMOE collection including a few freddy gloves closer to October but here is a bust I purchased recently.
