These masks all look like photos of corpses from the real-life, forensic experiment called the "Body Farm" in Kentucky. They're genuinely creepy. The photography is excellent. I wish I could talk to the guy who took the pictures.

the last one looks just like something out of Chicken little.
That is one messed up Annie costume. Looks like a serial killer in drag. Nightmarish.
I remember having a "Chinaman" mask like this for Halloween a long, long time ago. What are these things made of? It's like molded burlap or something.
Apropos of nothing...
I just heard "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" on the radio this morning. Any relation..?
Awww man! Daniel beat me to the punch with the Little Serial Killer Annie comment!
Those beat my costume this year- an obscure character from a fairly recent novel. Basically, myself with sunglasses.
Where do you find these things? I actually feel my life has improved from reading this blog!
Um, me again...
Just found THIS link to "The Worst Halloween Costumes of All Time."
Maybe, maybe not. But a Chuck Barris outfit?!?!?
(Oh, and sorry about that G. Lightfoot thing. Upon reflection, you probably get that all the time. My apologies...)
Ewwwww....those are creepy looking masks. They do look like mummifying corpse faces.
craig d, that was a good link to bad costumes. They were soooooo cheap-looking and so 1970s.

Personally, I think the one of Little Orphan Annie is a dead-ringer for George Costanza's mom.
That is one scary Little Orphan Annie costume. I'm glad the comic strip didn't look like that.
Also, Eddie, were you planning to post a funny picture of Jorge? If so, I'm afraid that I've already beaten you to it. ;)
Craig: Scary stuff indeed!!!
Glam: Interesting! As soon as I can I'm going to spend some time on that site and try to figure it all out!
Joel: Thanks much!
