Halloween Hot Sauce

My previous business, Haunted Hot Sauce has died, its been buried and has now clawed its way back from the grave as Halloween Hot Sauce! Do you like Halloween? Do like hot sauce? Then you'll LOVE Halloween Hot Sauce!

Halloween Hot Sauce creates flavorful, high-quality hot sauce for Halloween...or anytime! Each hot sauce is wrapped in a creepy, vintage, apothecary-style label and comes topped with a scrap of “burial cloth” that’s been securely attached with a toe-tag!

It's a decoration! It's a delicious hot sauce! It's perfect for Halloween parties!

Halloween Hot Sauce...the OFFICIAL hot sauce of Halloween! You think that's a bold claim? See for yourself at HalloweenHotSauce.com!

Pumpkin Spice Liqueur: Vintage Bottles

I'm extremely happy with how this entire project turned out! I'll continue to make this and if there are any changes to the recipe, I'll post them.



This photo is a little washed out but you get the idea. I let it sit in a big bottle for a couple months and then poured it into smaller bottles. The liqueur cleared up a LOT leaving the sediment in the bottom of the big bottle and giving the final product a nice orange color and clarity.

Something WICKED...

Something WICKED this way comes!


Fresh from a label re-design, a new toe-tag and a creepy, "burial shroud" bottle topper comes HELL-Razor Habanero Hot Sauce! Available very soon on HauntedHotSauce.com.

NEW (Old) Haunted Hot Sauce Bottle Style!!

Revealed for the very first time is the prototype bottle in my NEW (old vintage apothecary) style! What do you think?


The zombies have been redrawn on every product! New, aged, more authentic toe tags!


I still have some tweaks to do on the aged cloth bottle toppers but overall I'm VERY excited about the new look!


I think everybody will LOVE this! I poured my undying soul into this project.

It's a hot sauce! It's a Halloween prop! You NEED this for your Halloween party table! And trust me...the hot sauce is the BEST, thickest, most robust hot sauce you will EVER taste! It's my labor of love! Here's a link to my products and a heat scale.

AVAILABLE VERY SOON at HauntedHotSauce.com!! Stay tuned!

If you'd like to be informed when the site launches, simply send an email to TheUndertaker@HauntedHotSauce.com saying "Let me know when the new site launches"

Incidentally...Thank you House Bloodthorn for the rough-edge die-cut idea. Right now I'm doing that with fancy scissors but when I have these labels printed I'll apply it for real!

Embalming Fluid! It cures what ails 'ya!

A few photos from a Halloween party that I attended a couple years ago.


Embalming fluid...responsible for that winning smile!


Something on my lip? Where?

Pumpkin Spice Liqueur - finished!

Another batch of pumpkin spice liqueur is finished. I used brown sugar this time and less simple syrup so the end result is darker, richer and stronger!

I think I need to start another batch! This time I'll go back to using the white cane sugar so the color is a little less dark and murky and more orange and pumpkin-y!


I'll let it sit in these bottles for a while so the remaining pumpkin sediment settles. Then I'll re-bottle into smaller bottles, label and enjoy!


Cheers!

More on the Halloween 2 Phantom Jam

In March of 2009, 300 of us "costumed extras" We were bussed to this abandoned fertilizer company in Newborn GA. to film the Phantom Jam Halloween Party scene for Rob Zombie's Halloween 2.


Apparently, we're here!


We caught glimpses of Rob as he raced back and forth between buildings. Later, some of us would get to work with him, up close and personal.



Made some friends!


On our way into the ultimate Halloween party...the Phantom Jam!!! With your host...ROB ZOMBIE!


Inside the ultimate Halloween party! We jumped and screamed and partied to the sounds of Captain Clegg and the Night Creatures!! (for 2 days)


The MC for the Phantom Jam was Uncle Seymour Coffins! This guy is an absolute riot!




Some posters created for the Phantom Jam.

All-in-all, it was an amazing experience. The big toe on my left foot is still numb from wearing monster boots for 2 days. And in one instance, Rob put me in a particular spot in front of the camera because he "liked my zombie contacts". (I had already removed them and my red, bloodshot eyes underneath were far scarier than any contacts I could have bought) Good times!

The Undertaker and Halloween 2

Yup! That's me! I was an extra in the Phantom Jam scene in Rob Zombie's Halloween 2. We shot for the good part of two days straight and other than the pay stub and this photo, there's very little prof that I was even there. Still, an amazing experience. I'd love to do it again...as a zombie...for The Walking Dead...being filmed in Atlanta...where I live! (anybody listening?) ;)

Halloween Party Invitations

Here's my Halloween party invitation from 2010. I found the images, labels and fonts online and built it in Photoshop. It was printed double-sided on thick card stock, wrapped in a wrinkled craft paper "envelope", sealed with a vintage poison label and tied "butcher-style" with twine. I'd love to see your invites!

Pumpkin Spice Liqueur - Round 2

I'm in the process of perfecting my Pumpkin Spice liqueur recipe (originally obtained from HalloweenDrinks.net). This time, a little less sweet and with a slightly higher alcohol content.


The Ingredients


The spices in the bottom of the jar before adding the pumpkin and the 100 proof vodka. Looks delicious doesn't it?


This murky swill will soon become delicious pumpkin spice liqueur! Really!

Pumpkin Spice Liqueur

The finished product. It came out DELICIOUS!
Must make more!



Sweet, spicy, pumpkin-y and about 50 proof!
CHEERS!

Diabolical Experiments w/ Scent

The Undertaker is now conducting diabolical experiments with scent induced "experience triggers". The goal? To refine my "Unearthed Coffin" scent. (basically overturned earth, cedar coffin wood and mausoleum moss) Who wants their house or haunt to smell like Moonlit Hill Mortuary? Additional scents on the way as they develop. Suggestions appreciated. I probably won't sell them...might be giveaways or included with orders.

Zombie Heads and Hands

...anxiously await staining.

Styrofoam Zombie Heads: Teeth

Today I added teeth and gums to my Styrofoam zombie heads. Next step? ROTTING FLESH!!!

Spirits of pumpkin and spice...

Corpse head

Here's the head to one of many corpses I'll be bulding over the next couple weeks. Made from a styrofoam wig head, construction adhesive, hot glue for fabrics and paint.

Making Funeral Flowers

During a recent trip to a cemetery I noticed how much atmosphere the flowers left for the deceased add to it. Real flowers die and turn brown quickly while artificial arrangements wilt and fade in the sun.

I decided to try and capture a bit of this atmosphere in my own Halloween cemetery. I went to the Dollar Tree store and purchased about 15 bunches of artificial flowers at $1.00 each. [photo] Big Lots provided four $3.00 plastic urns.

Using a heat gun, I blasted the flower arrangements causing them to wilt. Then I lightly spray painted the tops of the blossoms and leaves with a flat light tan color [photo] to try and create a faded look on the colored flowers and a dusty look on the white flowers.

The results are below. The photos really don't do it justice but all-in-all I think it's pretty successful. I still have to weather the urns in the photos below.











A coating of spider web and some interesting lighting and I think these arrangements will add to the creepy atmosphere of my cemetery...or of my casket viewing area. What do you think?

UNDEAD Pale Ale

I stumbled across a t-shirt design displaying a label very similar to this one. The t-shirt design said "POSTHUMOUS PALE ALE" and I'll admit to you that I had to look up the word posthumous (AFTER DEATH) to get it. So...I changed the name to something that simpletons like me can understand. I'll print out a bunch of these and stick them onto bottles of Pale Ale for my Halloween party.

note: original "posthumous pale ale" design by Blair Sayer.
