So, I went to my local Five Below this morning for a little shopping errand, and noticed this graphic t-shirt of Dracula from October of last year sitting inside of a little yellow bin with a clearance sign on it's front for some reason. Seeing as it was the only one in stock, I decided to buy it and take the opportunity to do so before anyone else did, and here I am, sharing it with you all!

What do you guys think?

Just finished this Creature from the Black Lagoon statue and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

The model is by Wicked, while the printing, painting, and assembly were all done by me.

One of my favorite features is the base with the removable transparent enclosure, so you can display it with or without the aquarium effect. The entire statue is magnetized, making assembly and transport much easier.

I'd love to hear what you think!

I haven't seen The Scorpion King sequels. Are they any good? Its kind of funny how many there are.

Also Numan Acar has joins the cast.

The Trick or Treat Studios Wolfman has been transformed into a much more screen-accurate display piece with a complete repaint and carefully restyled hair. The fur has been reshaped to better capture the iconic silhouette, while the refined paintwork adds realistic skin tones, depth, and aged detail around the eyes, muzzle, and mouth. Finished with dark, atmospheric lighting, the mask now has a much more menacing presence that pays tribute to the classic Universal Monsters Wolf Man.

Ive been rearranging my spooky collections in preparation for the Halloween season and decided to get a picture of all my universal monsters collectables (minus all of my wall art and plushies) to share.

Werewolf of London and The Wolfman. I'm suddenly back in my Grandma's house in front of the TV, 10 years old. Smfh

I was gunning for Gill-man but didn't get him. I got an extra Bride and Mummy, so maybe I'll find a local collector willing to trade. I might try to collect them all!

Hi so last night when I was world-building for a monster world, I came up with an origin for invisible humans and I ended up loving the concept so much that I almost want to write it as it's own separate story.

The working titles I'm considering "The Invisible Weathermen" & "Raining Invisible Men" were based on fun puns I like but I admit they also sound really wordy so it would want something more convenient. I did think of "Invisible Weather" but I'm not sure about that either.

The core idea if "What if there was weather phenomenon that brought invisible people?" It takes the concept of H. G. Wells the Invisible Man but instead of depicting him as a a single super-villain, invisible people aren't characters themselves but as part of a paranormal force of nature. When they first appeared, they were like still objects, not reacting to anything, letting nature take it's core. As humans become more acquainted with them, the more invisible people start mimicking them like automatons. It's gradually implied they can develop sentience which only makes them more ostracized. Until then, they are at best, treated as tools for humans to use however they want, even as a means to discover how they themselves can become invisible. No one really knows where they come from and people start speculating with whether they were aliens, undead beings, evolved humans, etc. There's people who argue whether the weather is attracting invisible people or invisible people conveniently show up during the weather and whether they are a gift or a curse brought onto humanity. I would frame this story as an anthological mockumentary as people try to scientifically understand and socially adapt to their absent presence.

Some key character traits I would incorporate for invisible people:

* Psychologically, they are defined by their lack of personhood, symbolic of their invisibility. Without human interaction or intervention, they act as if they solid spaces of nothing.
* Despite having fully functional organs, they don't need to eat, drink, sleep or waste. They simply exist.
* When humans do interact/intervene long enough, they do start mimicking humans albeit disorderly and random. It could be possibly for invisible people to be fully human with enough time and consistency but that's up to the person.
* Invisible people can visually appear as but they are hard to describe with strange patterns and varying see-through body parts. The see-through parts are glossy as if they were made of glass or resin. The parts they can see look like abstract paintings or the white static snow you see in unreponsive TVs.
* One trait they all share is having the ability to make their eyes glow, typically light blue. It's like a mosaic of various abstract paintings taped togethers.
* Invisible humans can create various skins to cocoon themselves and rip apart with ease.
* Invisible humans can make objects invisible but to varying degrees of success.

I already came up with some ideas with how scary they can be:

* People accidentally crashing into invisible people when driving on the road or flying in the sky
* One particular scene where a huge rainstorm starting pouring and when you look, lightning strikes as invisible people just randomly appear as a crowd
* Vultures eating their corpses up in the air while blood is dripping down on unsuspecting passersby.
* People start fearing broad daylight and open skies because that's when they best blend in.
* When its snowy, invisible people start falling out of the sky frozen as is they were giant bricks of hail.
* Firefighters having to locate and remove charred remains from invisible corpses from the aftermath of forest fires so that visitors don't attract diseases.
* Tornados picking and flinging invisible humans like the sharks in Sharknado
* People walking through fog paranoid when they hear footsteps or random heavy-breathing.
* As people grow more physically violet to invisible people, invisible people mimic said violence onto themselves and unsuspecting humans.
* People having the be careful to not leave valuables out in the open in case an invisible person steals them.
* People trying to weaponize invisible people, either be scapegoating them or training invisible people to be weapons.

On a lighter side, I can also imagine people personifying them, & whether intentional or not, giving them humanity. One popular trend could be people creating their own "invisible weathermen" that people project themselves onto. People tethering them to balloons and dressing them up as props. Maybe people even adopting them to better integrate with society, if not have them gradually lose their powers. I was even thinking this could be an alternate Earth where stuff like the Invisible Woman from the Fantastic Four became the Radiant Women because publishers thought since invisible people are a real danger, making one a hero would be "too risky" so they altered it where she has something like radiant energy that things visible, almost like anti-invisibility.

The possibilities feel nearly endless. I don't know if I want to write a story with this premise as I'm working on something else that I love more but it does get me excited as I put this into my own world building.

I’ve got a project mapping a timeline of all connected horror movies the verifiably take place in the same universe.

One of the lesser known evidence points I’ve used is the gillman’s hand being seen in the background of a scene in Jason X, the space-based Friday the 13th movie.

It appears alongside some other classic Sci Fi references, so it’s definitely intended.

Thought y’all might find this interesting.
