Trick or Treat Studios Previews Massive Halloween 2017 ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ Mask Collection

Published

Halloween 2017 is pretty far off, but it’s always fun to look ahead!

No mask-making company on the planet right now does it better than Trick or Treat Studios, who first made their presence known on the Halloween scene with the most screen-accurate Michael Myers mask to ever be mass produced. They’ve outdone themselves yet again with their 2016 offerings, but they’re already looking forward to the NEXT Halloween season.

As announced over on the official Trick or Treat Studios Facebook page, the company just acquired the rights to the entire Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, a deal they say has been an incredible five years in the making. They have been granted exclusivity to masks and costumes based on the series, and Halloween 2017 will see the launch of a massive collection of goods.

Masks based on every film in the franchise, including the 2003 remake, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, and Texas Chainsaw 3D will be part of the collection, and they’re not even leaving much maligned sequel The Next Generation out in the cold. It’ll likely be a while before we see most of this stuff, but a sneak preview of three of the masks has already been unveiled.

Check out the upcoming Leatherface, “Dinner Scene” Leatherface, and Grandpa masks below!

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
