Various Halloween, Horror, and Costume MasksFrankenstein's Monster - Frankenstein (1931) Portrayed by Boris Karloff.   Ardeth Bey - The Mummy (1932) The Mummy, Im Ho Tep, takes on human form in the visage of Ardeth Bey. Portrayed by Boris Karloff.    Creature From the Black Lagoon (1954) Portrayed by Ben Chapman on land and Ricou Browning under water.   Tor Johnson Don Post mask (1977) of Tor as Inspector Clay from "Plan 9 From Outer Space"   Shock Monster Shock Monster became the icon of the monster craze beginning in the late 1950s. I am unclear if it had any connection to the Shock Theatre package of films that were released to TV at that time. It was originally sold as an inexpensive rubber mask alongside others like Vampire Girl, Mummy, and more.   Phantom of the Opera - Lon Chaney From Trick or Treat Studios.  The Wolfman - Lon Chaney Jr. From Trick or Treat Studios. Excellent eye detail.   Coridian Elder This is a recent reboot of an older Don Post mask called Coridian Alien. I had one, but it was destroyed years ago. First photo is the Elder, followed by a picture (not mine) of the original.   Butcher I have no idea what the real name of this character is. I bought it to use as a butcher in a Horror Show.  ZOMBIE!  This was used this in my Spook Shows. I would pluck out my eyeballs and do sleight of hand with them. I added the hair. Creepshow Nate From "Creepshow" - 1982 - "Father's Day" Sculpted by Justin Mabry.  Frankie No idea what he's really called. This is a mask that sits on top of the wearer's head, with eye vision through the collar area. I converted him into a puppet for my shows.   Goofy Skull I have two of these. They are interesting in that you stuff the skull and it rides on top of your head. The wearer sees through a screen cloth in the neckline.  Hat Keeper  Surf Kook Ed "Big Daddy" Roth inspired  Pizza Fiend A similar 'Rat Fink' or 'Weirdos' style  Nosferatu Sold as Night Creature. I stuck the hat on and added the eyes just for fun.  Twisty American Horror Story - Freakshow Deluxe model with detachable jaw mask, revealing horrors underneath! Sculpted by Russ Lukich for Trick or Treat Studios.    Generic Alien I'm sure this had a name when I bought it. I just don't remember.    Bloated Bob Trick or Treat Studios Sculpted by Erich Lubatti.  Gorilla A moving mouth mask that I converted into a puppet, operated like a vent dummy. The eyeballs are plastic golf balls. I added the headband to give him more personality.   Decapitation This is not a mask, but rather a puppet gaff. It appears that you are holding a decapitated head. Your hand inside controls the mouth and can wiggle the tongue. Great effect!   Dark Harvest Snarling Jack O'Lantern Moving mouth animotion mask. Upper lip curls in a sneer when the mouth opens.  Jack Jaw Just a name I gave this moving mouth mask. I had intended to make a puppet from him. Pretty cool for a cheap mask.  Baron Von Frankenstein - From Mad Monster Party Obvious nod to Boris Karloff.  Pug Moving mouth mask with a certain level of realism... for a giant pug.   Goat Skull Moving jaw. Hard Plastic. Cool mask from Walmart and only about 10 bucks!  Shrunken Head  Interesting mask. The wearer's head fills most of the area where there is hair. The tiny face is attached to the front. Eye vision through screens above the face. Scream Scarecrow  Generic Corpse 1  Generic Corpse 2  Ghost Face  Generic Jacko  Generic Reaper  Illusion face of me.  I made this almost 50 years ago from foam latex in a mold cast from my face. It was used in a stage illusion. The hair is my own hair. Vintage and vacuum-formedMandrake the Magician  I believe this is from a vintage Collegeville costume, probably late 1950s. It is mask only, no costume or box. I have seen other versions of this, but this is the only one I've seen with Mandrake's name on the hat.
