monsters on the loose (the puffy kind)

Note: I've just been exposed as a horrible, terrible, dishonest, fraud! I pulled these images off the world wide web a year ago and promptly forgot where they came from and the originator (that sounds like a super hero - THE ORIGINATOR!) has come knocking on the door of the cinema. These FABULOUS images came from Deadilicious. You can find the original post here. Hopefully that has saved me from thumping at the hands of a team of Mexican wrestlers....

Toronto is home to a party supply store called Balloon King, filled with stock that is at least 20 years old in some cases. When I was looking for items to stuff into a Halloween pinata, imagine my delight on finding I could buy sheets with these guys stapled to them for dirt cheap. The Dracula is pretty unsettling...

Notice that the Wolfman is actually the Dino De Laurentis King Kong original movie poster?
