Description:

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (hardcover)
collected by Alvin Schwartz, illustrated by Brett Helquist
Harper, an Imprint of Harper Collins Publishers
Library of Congress catalog card number:  2009934072
ISBN:  9780060835194

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is a classic children's horror collection drawn heavily from folklore and urban legends, the first in a series of three.  This first book contains 29 short stories, including "The Big Toe," "The Thing," "The Haunted House," "The Hearse Song," "The Dead Man's Brains," "The Hook," "High Beams," "The Babysitter," "The Viper" and "The Ghost with the Bloody Fingers." 

The Scary Stories series is listed as being the most challenged series of books from 1990–1999 (
for its violence), and continued to rank among the most challenged from 2000–2009 by the American Library Association.  The surreal, nightmarish illustrations contained within are also a frequently challenged component of the original books.  Like most of the challenged, restricted, removed or banned books, Scary Stories rates as a literary high-mark, as well as one of the most widely read and remembered. 

In January, 2016 it was announced that Guillermo del Toro would develop the books for a feature film, adapted by writer John August.

Description:

NAZI DESTRUCTOR Luchador Mask


A truly rare piece for any Lucha Libre aficionado, or an awesome Halloween mask!

The Destructor Nazi is a legendary long-running villain from the Latin American Wrestling circuit.  This infamous luchador is shrouded in secrecy...to this day, his true identity has not been revealed (though he also wrestled under the name "Barman" and his birthplace is said to be
Arcelia, Guerrero in Mexico).  His first known appearance was in 1970 and it is debated whether more recent matches have been the same performer back from retirement, or a new wrestler taking on the original title. 


Mask was hand-made in Mexico.
One size fits all, adjustable lace-up back.



¡Mierda, es el Destructor Nazi!

Description:

AHL PEORIA RIVERMEN MASCOT SHOES 

You are bidding on the oversized shoes from the mascot of the Peoria Rivermen hockey team (former American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL's St. Louis Blues).  I purchased these at the team's year-end equipment auction/sale in 2013, after it was announced that the Rivermen AHL team had been sold and would be moving to Utica, NY. 

The shoes are still in great shape, so they would make a fantastic unique gift for a Rivermen fan and/or a cool Halloween costume (think: clown, giant, etc...) and/or footwear for your furry fetish.
