Gus the Ghost Halloween Costume

You'll see a bit of a similarity between another Ben Cooper Ghost costume and this Gus the Ghost version. The other ghost has the costume image in color, with slight alterations. Gus, here, looks a bit more naughty. I doubt the box the seller, bc3697, is listing this with is the original one: I say that because, usually when the costume is personalized with a name, that would appear on the box; so instead of just "Ghost" the box should read "Gus the Ghost." And that's one of the pitfalls of Halloween costume collecting: knowing if the costume is paired with its original box. And I don't mean to imply eBay sellers are doing it out of convenience. How many Halloween costume experts do YOU know?

The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues
Double Shock Show!

Roger Corman directed fourth movie, Day the World Ended, starred Richard Denning, Paul Birch, and Marty the Mutated Monster courtesy of Paul Blaisdell. Double billed with The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues, the pair made a tidy profit. It was the first double feature offering by American Releasing Corporation, later known by horror fans as American International Pictures. Day is the better of the two movies.
