MARX HOOTIN HOLLOW HAUNTED HOUSE


I would have loved this tin haunted house as a young monster kid. Would you?

This one is courtesy of You Tube.

Anyone got one?

  1. That's amazing! I've never seen anything like it!
    Speaking of Ghostly Stuff for Kiddies, did anyone else have those Glow-in-the-Dark Spooky figures that came in a breakfast cereal? I think it was Sugar Puffs and they were flat, like Nuremburg Flat toy soldiers. I had a Witch on a broomstick, but I think there were also ghosts, a cat and an Elizabethan Spook!

    1. Do you mean Luminous Spooks Looey? I've only ever seen them just now but they look super dooper! Check this site out from ten years ago http://retrospooky.blogspot.com/2010/04/luminous-spooks.html and https://sites.google.com/site/hauntedmanor/tv-advertisement

    Where were all these amazing toys when I was growing up ? That house has a battery of typewriter keys at the end to operate all its features. I never had any spooky toys, and there was very little that I can recall on TV in NZ in the 1960s or 1970s, although I do remember the Disney film Blackbeard's Ghost. It was only much later that I became interested in horror movies. If only toys like this had been around when I was little.
