The Legends Behind the Masks & Halloween Karaoke

For your Halloween reading pleasure, here are a couple of behind-the-mask stories. The original Halloween movie was on such a dismally low budget that they had to scrape the bottom of the barrel for costumes. They found the Michael Myers mask at a costume shop for just two bucks. It was a William Shatner Star Trek mask! A few snips to widen the eyeholes and some white spray paint helped bring about the perfect expressionless creep factor. Beam me up, Scotty! On the other face, the iconic mask for Scream was found draped over a chair while scouting a location that was once used by Alfred Hitchcock. The mask was originally created by a place called Fun World and was called the "Peanut-Eyed Ghost." Want more Halloween fun? Join us on November 1 for Halloween Karaoke at the Taproom with Joe O'Malley. And make sure you stop by the Mothership this weekend for your last chance to see the Haunted Brewhouse.
