"The
Prowling Pumpkin" |
Visits |
 |
The
rather scary Entry Line went On..., |
 |
And
On..., and On... |
 |
...But
-- once the Pasadena Convention Center doors were opened, it moved
surprisingly fast... |
|
There
was Outstanding Classic Monster Artwork for
sale... |
|
 |
|
There
were Monsters-in-the-Making! |

|

It,
um, does seem that "ears" were rather a recurring motif
-- |
 |
--
eh what...? |
|
There
were Miniature Maiden Models ~ |

~
and Full-sized Mounted Monsters!
Plus
Tiny Larry Talbots --

|

--
with telling traumatic tribulations...
(Little
Larry looked a bit un-glued, and we could understand why...) |
|
Legendary

Rob
Burman |

up a new character vision right in the midst of mezmerized Monsterpalooza-goers...
|
|
 |
 |
|
At
least the ears look normal here, yes... ? |
|

The
late, great Forrest J. Ackerman, or at least
a fantastastically realistic replica, was in proximity to Celebrated
Company...
|
|
 |
|
...Including
other incredibly realistic, not-at-all-real
people -- |
|
 |
|
--
And astonishing personalities representing -- |
--
Both
Sides of "The Pond". |
 |
(aka, Swamp) |
Yes
it was another great show, with world-class Artists, Vendors, countless
creative displays -- and no shortage of "Monsters"
at all... |
What's
'The Buzz' as Autumn dies...? |
(The
Pumpkins know it isn't
'flies'...!) |
Here's
a fable for you, friend, whose villain meets a 'sticky end'... |
(Come
for a visit -- and
then Run-For-Your-Leaves!)

She's
not out-of-her-gourd, she's INTO it... |

realized and imaginatively creepy, Shari's visions may inspire You
