Deadtime Stories, Original Freaky Prop Mold

original make-up / prosthetics

From Deadtime Stories (1986) -- the original mold that created the prop puppet known as Freaky. From the collection of the SPFX Artist who created him, Ed French.

This mold has quite an interesting story behind them. The individual who had previously owned this, had worked on a project together with Ed in 1987. One day he had called Ed up on the phone and while he spoke to Ed, he heard smashing sounds. This prompted the individual to ask -- whats that noise, Ed? I cant take everything with me when I move to LA so Im throwing stuff out, he said. With that, the individual told Ed to stop and hed be right over. That same day he came in with a big van and was given a bunch of molds. Eds attitude was (the molds to these monster shows had served their purpose and were expendable). This individual grabbed what he could find and the rest were junked. Lost forever..
