12 Masks of Halloween: #3 Velociraptor Dinosaur Mask
Those blow up T-Rex costumes have been all the rage this year. It’s too late to use them to be original this Halloween. As an alternative you could find nearly £650 and get this handmade Velociraptor mask instead. Like yesterday’s Nightmare Before Christmas mask, this dinosaur is created by Tentacle Studio and you can buy […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #2 Jack Skellington
I don’t know if it’s a clever move by the artist, Tentacle Studio or just a fluke of the exchange rate, but Jack Skellington will currently set you back £666. The mask is for sale on Etsy and designed for an adult sized head. It’s made from paper mache but has a waterproof laquer for […]
247blinds launch horror collection
I like these. 247blinds have released a horror collection in time for Halloween. They’re even offering nearly 70% off if you grab one before Halloween. It’s tempting to do that as its a limited collection and I think they might sell out. Yeah, these are real blinds and not just mockups for a marketing stunt. […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #1 Horned Raven Mask
The 12 Masks of Halloween is a Geek Native tradition.

There are always some outrageous, interesting and downright expensive […]

12 Masks of Halloween: #12 Steampunk Mad Max
Show me more Cross steampunk with the sort of masks you might imagine worn by wild riders out in the post-apocalyptic world of Mad Max. If you can then you might end up with something like the “The Sheerwood Bandit” from OcultoMasks on Etsy. Mask 12 means only one thing in the 12 Masks of […]
Short film: Monster Problems
Looking for a short film to show your kids this Halloween? I think Monster Problems might be what you’re looking for. A boy manages to make it safely into bed by leaping just as the lights go out. Is it enough? Not quite; that doesn’t stop a trio of terrors from surrounding him. Fans of […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #11 Egyptian God
Go through the StarGate! The work of Chimerical Dragonfly have been featured on Geek Native before. They’re an excellent resource for LARP costumes, Halloween or even that YouTube show you’re working on. This Ra mask is made to order. I think it’s good enough theatrical or even movie props. Or, maybe, running a cult if […]
12 Masks of Halloween: #10 Ichigo’s Hollow Mask
Bankai! Fan of the anime Bleach? Hero Ichigo battles against Hollows, spirited turned dangerously insane and each with a hole in their soul and a skeletal face. One particular skeletal mask, though, has special significance. This hollow mask ships from Darlington, from the hands of Masktastic, in the UK to anywhere in the world. You […]
