The Crypt of Curiosities












Hey everybody. Haunted house numba one is done. We had an early Halloween party at The Xploration Station and it was a good success, so yay !! It sure was down to the wire and we put it all together in what felt like 5 days of non stop work with sleep breaks but I am very pleased with the results and I hope these pictures do it some justice.

One more thing, I would like to thank Stuart M, Matt, Missy, Sarah, Adrienne, Sarah, Nancy, Tristan, Alicia, Angela, Miranda, as well as the haunted house actors Seth and Indy for all of your hard work and help but especially most of the thanks goes to Stuart Dunsmore. You sure are a glutton for punishment buddy but I truly am grateful for all the help!!!! You really worked your tail off man!!

For all of you who are wondering what all this stuff is ( like the awesome chamber of spikes). I will go into more detail when I post the garage haunted house pictures and movie after this Halloween on Friday.

Oh and HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY!!!!! stay safe!

The Firefly and The Stars




I am pleased to announce the short animated film The Firefly and The Stars is on the web and available for purchase. It was directed and animated by the unbelievably talented and genuinely nice Adriana Vargas Blake. I also have to give props to the small team of animators clean up artist and technicians at Stone Soup Traditional Animation that put their passion into this great film.
I am glad to have had the privilege to work on the children's book to go along with the film and I agree that it is just a good hearted timeless tale!
So please take a look at and enjoy the hard work that Adriana and everyone at Stone Soup have put into this great piece of film http://www.thefireflyandthestars.com

It just may happen!!!



Projects and work loads are now leaping above full gear and I am now building 2 haunted houses. One haunted maze for the science museum where I work and the second one in my garage. It is crazy but this is what I live for! I guess the Piranhas will have to wait their turn for their newly painted tank.

Any who, this is a sign for the museums haunted party and I hopefully will move him to my haunted house the day after to be the barker sign so to speak for Bill's Garage of Terror. When this old zombie gets some color I'll post him for another cameo. Oh yeah I guess this makes (zombie number 5 baby!!)

Zombie number 4


Poisoned, beaten, stabbed, shot and thrown into an icy river to drown. Yet they say the supernatural Grigori Rasputin was still alive enough to attempt to claw his way out from underneath the ice before he was claimed by hypothermia. He definitely deserves a zombie award!!

On a side note, ever since I first set foot in the Haunted Mansion at Disney World I have always wanted to make a creepy portrait of my very own, and nobody is creepier than old Rasputin. That is why he is going to be hung in Bill Ferguson's Haunted Garage of Terror !!!!!!
