    Ahhh.......nostalgia, no?

    My father lovingly bought an original one of these for me back as a child. It was given good love and was habitually worn, torn, and eventually displaced by a line of authentic ones later in life. Regardless, the love for the original has never been fully replaced in my heart.

    Thus, a recent trip to eBay has replenished this gem into my collection.

    In a day and age where message boards like this one are bombarded with filmfans and collectors dying for on-screen prop authenticity while children and pre-teens alike scream for more CGI in new-age series reboots, I hope there is at least one old-school, thirty-something, 1980's horror fan in the NIGHTOWL community who can appreciate the simplicity, yet awesome vintage nature of my original childhood love for Halloween:

    It's like I just went to Woolworth's as a 7 year old.

    Happy Halloween Everyone....

    Excellent pickup! I still have my from when i was a kid. It's opened of-course. I still love putting it on every once in awhile and thinking about when me and my friends would play ghost in the graveyard while wearing them.

    I love how it even say woolworth on the bottom.

    If I'm not mistaken, those were made back in the day using the mold for the plastic stunt glove from Dream Warriors

    Very nice! I still have mine. Awhile back I got one of those packaged Freddy masks and hats I had as a kid.

    I still have mine but it's completely painted different and the glove isn't the same. I have yet to see one like it!
