What if your Cabbage Patch Kid died and was buried in a Stephen King-like Pet Sematary?
You'd get The Living Dead Dolls.
Ahhh the Living Dead Dolls.
Such a simple idea that is executed so well.
What are they?
Well: take a doll ---boom, already creepy--- then make it into a gothic horror icon.
Creepy clown? Check.
Eyeless child? Check.
Zombie infant? Check.
Etc. Etc. and so forth.
Brilliant in its terrifying simplicity.
I've marveled at some of the dolls over the years, debating a purchase of a Friday the 13th or Exorcist themed one. But nothing has ever really caught my fancy enough to make a purchase.
'Til now.
Series 16 of the Living Dead Dolls has a HALLOWEEN theme!
You know my penchant for jack o' lanterns and Pumpkin gives you 3 for 1. You've got the jack o' lantern trick or treat pail, the jack o' lantern mask AND the pumpkin-faced child underneath the mask. With the mask on it almost reminds me of the Halloween III: Season of the Witch Don Post mask the children wear in that film.
I really like this series as it seems like they took a little inspiration from all the horror favorites across a wide cross section of fans. You can see the Universal monsters, The Shining, Poe, The Munsters, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, Salem's Lot winks and the craftsmanship is superb.
Only a very affordable $25.99 apiece so head on over to Sideshowcollectibles.com to purchase! As always they're limited so get them before they're G-O-N-E.
