Jabbed Jason, Sick Sid, Hallow Jean… All new creations from Garbage Kids Pail artist Brent Engstrom made exclusively for FRIGHT RAGS vast horror collection of tees featuring the punny, rotted orphans from the patch of cabbage!
Friday the 13th, The Lost Boys, House of 1000 Corpses, and Halloween III: Season of the Witch have received Garbage Pail Kids makeovers and are selling fast. Each design is printed on Fright-Rags’ super soft 4.5oz poly/cotton blend shirts. In addition, the horror clothing extraordinaire company has also grown its own Garbage Pail Kids character, Fright Rag Freddy! It’s available on a ringer tee, a pair of socks, and in a “wax pack” featuring a T-shirt, enamel pin, and trading card. The wax pack is limited to 200 with the women’s shirt and pack bundle already sold out!
Also new to the website this weekend is the wonderful collection featuring John Carpenter’s eye-opener “horror doc”, They Live, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year! Consume five T-shirts, a pair of socks, and two enamel pins – one of which includes a humanoid face that flips open to reveal that iconic blue and red alien interior.
At first I thought, “Is this a joke? I’ve been trick or treated to death today..” and then low and behold- I didn’t know what death was until I legit just about had a heart attack over this glorious news from Mondo. The first five wonderful films of the Halloween franchise are getting a beautiful vinyl soundtrack release with exclusive new art AND a slipcase only available through the company that will hold all five stunning records for the ultimate packaging!
Me running to get money in the bank…
Starting tomorrow July 25th, the long-awaited Halloween 4 and 5 soundtracks will be available for purchase through MondoTees.com with a cool option to bundle the pair and get that slipcase mentioned above FREE with that purchase!

It was about this time or so a year ago when I came across a little Etsy shop by the name of NancyJars that instantly made me jizz all the retro fuzzies, (for my phantom dick’s sake humor me here). The glowing VHS lamp was so simple, yet so brilliant. And I needed to write about it immediately. Soon thereafter, other online websites caught on to Etsy seller Hayley Summers’ creativity and thus further contributing to an overload of orders and an assurance, that Miss Summers had her work cut out for her. However, it also meant that others out there like myself, knew that this was something special. And by the beard of Zeus, since then, Summers work has grown beautifully and the Etsy shop is bigger and brighter than ever!
Just look at this splendid national treasure fellas.
While many copycat sellers have sprouted from the depths of VHS illumination since then, make no mistake here boils and ghouls. This is the original innovator of retro renovations of the VHS and now, audio cassettes of its kind! With the shop fandom growing, Summers has added all new pieces of nostalgic decor goodness to the NancyJars Etsy boutique for anyone looking for that retro flair for your little man-cave or beaver-dam. In addition to the original VHS Lamp of glory, the shop now has upgraded versions of the lamp with killer art, VHS Cover clocks, wall hanging VHS art, custom Cassette art, and all new GOLDEN VHS Lamps dedicated to the golden age of cinema monsters!
Check out a few of these beasts.

NancyJars happily caters to custom orders so if you have a particular idea you’d like to see VHS’d out, just contact the shop directly and you’re on your way to having one of the coolest pieces out there any cinephile will love!
