Horror Mask Mystery Solved

 Just over a year ago I posted a mystery miniature horror mask.


Made of flimsy plastic, it had a strange holder at the back.


There was much speculation as to what it could be in the comments at the time.

As is often the case with these things the solution to the mystery has revealed itself when I was looking for something completely different this week!

Turns out it's a Creepy Funs like this! 

It's a sort of wall walker, the rear holder containing a sticky roll, like a small toilet roll! 

I couldn't find my exact one but here's a selection of Creepy Funs, which looks like they're from the 80's or 90's to me.

Do you like them?

  1. Reminds me of some sort of suction cup wall walker I had. Awkward thing that didn't work well, best on windows.

    1. They were called Wallwalkers Baron, the main brand at the time. Maybe Marx. I had some too. A Purple one stuck in my mind.

    The purple face on the card reminds me of the Toxic Avenger, from the movie series by Troma Films.

    1. Yes it does. Ive got a couple of Troma flicks on VHS but I've never watched them Paul.

    2. My best friend's first gig in film was working for Troma. He works at ILM now.
