Maskfest 2015 Carnage

Maskfest 2015 has come and gone.. Rubbery monster headgear galore (though solid masks are coming back in a big way!).
Evil Pumpkins was well represented and had a great time hustling pumpkins, candles and other horrifying stuff. Here is this year's selected photo gallery. Enjoy!

Uncanny Valley - leading the charge in vintage-style vacuform masks painted with light.
Their work is quite amazing!

Kosart definitely keeping Lovecraft alive!

Pumpkin Pulp - Rotting flesh glory!

Maskfest - it's for kids as well!

Devil's Workshop "Curse of The Demon"

My vote for favorite rubber masks goes to Devil's Workshop. That Shock Monster with the green teeth. Perfection!
I believe this is the person that runs the fantastic Blood Curdling Blog of Monster Masks.

Wish I had taken a better photo of this booth.. Great mask work..

Mabry - a simple booth but excellent work as always!

Blood Curdling Blog of Monster Masks covers Mask Fest 2014

We were there too - but The BCB covers MASK FEST 2014 perfectly!

Don Post Monster Headpiece

From the Blood Curdling Blog of Monster Masks is this cool Glenn Strange Frankie topper discovery. I saw some modern versions of this at the big pumpkin tent this year and almost bought one.
This one is the hands-down the coolest Frankie topper that I have seen.
Another for the eBay wishlist!

MaskFest 2013 - A Little Too Realistic?

The pics from MaskFest are piled high in my camera roll. I came across these shots of two artists who were doing very realistic, high detail, human-skin masks. I apologize for lack of info in regard to the artists' names (it was an overwhelming few days) but "Artist 1" took the realism to a disturbing level on the Wolfman, Quasimodo and Count Orloff masks..
Artist 2 also had very realistic detail but slightly less "evil" on Legendre, Danny Trejo and Cochrane..
Fantastic stuff all the way around!

MaskFest 2013: The Grim Stitch Factory

One of the highlights of MaskFest 2013 was the fact that our Evil Pumpkins booth was situated from one of the true characters of the weekend, the dude from The Grim Stitch Factory.

His pieces are epic as shown below but laugh-a-minute dialog kept us in... err "stitches"!

Never before has so much thought been put into the merits of shit-canning table-signings like "Freddy Englund" 

Next time you see GSF, tell em Evil Pumpkins says hey!

MaskFest Hall of Monsters!

MaskFest was a total blast! Evil Pumpkins moved a ton of stuff and we got to hang out with Dead Dick Hammer and Dead Doreen as well as loads of other fiends. I have a load of cool Monster Kid pics to post but I wanted to start with the walk-thru Classic Monster exhibit. These were apparently on display for potential haunter buyers - but it was quite fun to hang out in the dark tent with these big guys and several return trips were in order..
