Can You Identify Your Stolen Property: Why Yes Officer, it has Rotting Flesh Radio on it!

RFR has a variety of listeners from enthusiasts, owners, vendors, home haunters and those just curious. And The Mortician gets a variety of mail from Deadites from loving the show, to fun haunt stories. This is one we recieved this week, and although we feel bad for Deadite Listener Keith, it is humorous how RFR can now be used to properly identify your haunted items.

Mortician,

Had some bad luck a week or so ago when I had my 2nd generation iPod Nano stolen from my car while parked at my house overnight. Pissed me off but it was mostly my fault as I had left the car unlocked that night. I continued to reported it to the Corning, NY Police, not ever expecting to see it again, but just because it was the right thing to do.

A week later I get a call from the Police saying that they have recovered a blue iPod and would I come down to try and identify it. So I go down to the station and sure enough it is my iPod! I identified it by looking up podcasts and found Rotting Flesh Radio. I told the officer that it was likely the only Blue iPod in the city of Corning that had Rotting Flesh Radio Podcast loaded on it!

He gave me a funny look and said, long as you know its yours. I felt I had to explain that I was a haunt owner and “only look at it for the in depth articles……”

I did not get the iPod back yet as they still need it for evidence. I guess that the kid they caught with it had quite a lot of stuff from other cars and also a previous rap sheet so hopefully he is going up the river. I wont get the iPod back until after the trial.

What to do in the meantime? Now I cant listen to RFR on my commute to work. Damn.

Are You Ready for Freddy? The Fats Boys Were!

So just going through those golden days of modern horror, the 80s. And a few gems I came across were music videos, and all kinds of great commercials. Now, one of them I clearly remember from my youth was The Fat Boys rapping with Freddy Kruger. It was funny, yet awesome all in the same. So in exposing some of the younger RFR Deadites to wonderful originality, lacking in the upcoming Horror Movie trends…Enjoy a time when Horror was Original, Music was went to be fun, not hard core, and Freddy was the one and only Robert Englund.

Sesame Place: Spooktacular with the Count

Get ready for another park to get a makeover for the Haunt Season as Sesame Place gets ready for Halloween. Now stepping aside from the Netherworlds, Splatter Haus’ and other hard core attractions, this one comes to us for our children a bit younger to celebrate Halloween.

Each weekend in October you and your kids can dress up, go trick or treating and run crazy in the 14 acre park in PA, based on the popular PBS Children’s Show. All month long they have such items as Count’s Halloween Spooktacular which includes the Abby’s Magical Halloween Maze, hayrides, trick-or-treating in the Sesame Neighborhood, and an Elmo’s Worl Halloween Show. They have costume contests, the Pumpkin Patch and more all month of October.

Sesame Place: Count’s Halloween Spooktacular 2009:
This event is for those Halloween lovers from ages 2 though 7. There are park specials for Season Pass holders, Count’s Birthday Bash and more. And the highlight is always on October 31st, when the grand Annual Costume Contest kicks off.

Now if you are looking for some adult scares this is not for you or your RFR Deadite self. This is for those listeners and readers who have small children and want them to celebrate Halloween as well. Just remember at night, you can get a baby sitter and get your scare on.

Hey there Deadites, in addition to celebrating Halloween and the Haunt Industry with spooks, haunts, and of course, RFR Swag there are many mainstream vendors celebrating as well. Back in the day, way back in the way might I re-phrase, I used to rock the half pipe, and skate my cares away and my provider of swag was Stussy. Stussy is a name that any extreme sports person will notice right away.

So it is no surprise that they also want in on the Halloween action. New for 2009, and hitting the store on October 3, 2009 will be their newest Halloween incarnation in the form of a all-new t-shirt.
