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!

I want my Mummy! (sort of)



THIS is maybe the most realistic looking prop I've seen from Spirit Halloween in a while. It hangs in a cloth box made to look like a crate. It's motion sensitive. When it's triggered the eyes light up red, it shakes and it goes into a sort of "comedy routine" which ruins the effect in my opinion. The voice sounds to me like George Costanza from Seinfeld.

It costs $99.99 which with a 20% discount coupon might be worth it if I can hack into it and make it growl menacingly instead of complain. It's supposed to utter 4 phrases but I've only heard one.

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!

Making Skulls

I've decided to try my hand at making a latex skull mold so I can cast my own expanding foam skulls year-round. I purchased a kit from Smooth-on and have filled in some of the deeper recesses in my skull with clay to make removal of the foam skulls easier. I'll carve the finished skull copies with a Dremel tool to re-deepen those areas.


My skull and the directions.


The skull's recesses filled in a bit with clay to make releasing the skull copies easier.

The next step? To secure my skull to a smooth surface, apply a mold release to the skull and start coating it with layer after layer of thick latex.

Making Zombie Arms

Tonight I'm making prop zombie arms out of bended pvc pipes to go with the zombie hands I made last year.


Two 9" pieces of pvc pipe.



Curved slightly by heating them up with a heat gun.



Holes drilled into the ends.



Fastened with zip ties.



Zip tie ends stuck into the open end of the pvc pipe and everything taped down with duct tape.

Next I'll coat the arms with construction adhesive (like liquid nails), stain them and give them a little touch up paint.

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.

My severed finger

My rotting, severed finger prop is finished. I coated my finger w/ 4 coats of liquid latex, powdered it up, pulled it off, turned it inside out, stuffed it w/ cotton, put a broken wooden dowel and liquid latex bits in the end and painted it.
