Happy Halloween everybody! I can't believe we're already into autumn. It's crazy how time flies! To celebrate the season, I made a mini-skirt with a cotton fabric featuring Hello Kitty dressed as a mummy. It's freakin' adorable and quite the hit at work.
Tonight I'm going out with some friends to see a special “William Castle’s Shockers” screening from two of the late director’s most horrifying cinematic offerings, “House On Haunted Hill” and “The Tingler.” Castle’s daughter Terry will be in attendance to introduce the films and discuss her father’s career as a purveyor of chills and thrills.
Inspired by this macabre event (and also to send some ghoulish sentiments to my blogger pals LuLu Kelogg and the Halloweenstress), I dug out this old Peter Paul spot from the seventies featuring none other than Vincent Price. While I remember the ad, I don’t think I ever received this candy in my trick-or-treat bag.
Nonetheless, Happy Halloween and Samhain Blessings to everyone. I'm wearing the skirt at the show tonight and will post a photo post haste!
UPDATE 1 November 2010 - So here are the photos I promised!
YIPPEE SKIPPY! I am so happy to see you post! LOVED seeing Vincent Price! That skirt sound so stinkin' cute!

Wow, so good to see you out here again! And thanks for the props to me & LuLu, you are such a sweetie:) That skirt is adorable and I know a couple of rough girls who would very nearly mug you for it!
ReplyDeleteI hope you had an AWESOME Halloween!!!
xoxo~D
P.S. I too remember the commercial but not the candy. I remember I took it pretty seriously because Vincent Price was talking about it, so it must have been a big deal. He was the coolest!
