He attended the Fright Night Film Fest and hung out with Bubba and Marylee.
As a huge fan of Dark Night of the Scarecrow, these are some pretty awesome bragging rights.

The Hiding Game

If your mom tries to hide you from vigilante justice by dressing you as a scarecrow, don't trust her.


Incredible costume by Arcane. This is really impressive.

Mob Justice

Great to see a mask modeled after the eerie scarecrow in Dark Night of the Scarecrow.

The Scarecrow Nose

DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW, which is finally coming out [officially] on DVD, has always been a favorite of mine. A tragic story, great performances, and some very creepy directing garnered it a cult following. The traditional design for the scarecrow featured in the film had a simplistic brilliance to it. Was in a bookstore a few weeks ago pouring over the horror mags and I stumbled across an article in HorrorHound discussing the story of how the made-for-television classic came about. It featured a great interview with the movie's writer and creator J.D. Feigelson. I was shocked to see his original design for the scarecrow. A chilling feature had been removed for the final screen-seen strawman - a wooden nose. I was probably way too excited by this. I felt like I stumbled upon a great secret (and in a way I had - these were exclusive photos that hadn't been released before). I have to admit that I absolutely loved the original design, and wished it had been used for the final prop. Sprigs of straw accented the top of the scarecrow's head, and his silent-screaming mouth was more pronounced and angry. It was a great lesson in prop design and it showed how something as innocent as a wooden nose on a scarecrow can make such a huge impact on the emotions of a prop. No doubt about it - I'll be making a replica of this stunning man at some point in my life. Probably sooner rather than later. HorrorHound.com
