My Favorite Things: Halloween Perfections
artist D. W. Frydendall
D.W. Frydendall
From the age of five, D.W. Frydendall was obsessed with two things: comics, and anything morbid and macabre. His lifelong devotion to art has earned him many an impressive gig in mainstream entertainment, with the likes of Disney, Hanna Barbara and Universal, but his style is always unique and raw, with the spirit of an iconoclast.
Frydendall is currently working on several comic projects and other top-secret jobs that will be unveiled soon.
Frydendall's Perfect Halloween: "I think the perfect Halloween would be with my girlfriend and my closest friends at a haunted location like the Waverly Hills Sanitarium doing an investigation and getting the crap scared out of us. That would be the best!"
   
His Best Costume Ever: "My best Halloween costume would have to have been my rococo era vampire costume in 1994. I spent a small fortune to get contacts made because at that time they weren't as readily available as they are now. I won a couple of contests and got a whole bunch of numbers. I'd say second is my current Wyatt Earp costume that's totally authentic."

The Ultimate Dream Costume: "would be a complete werewolf costume like the one Rob Bottin made for 'The Howling.' With the wolf like legs and long arms and drool. I'd hide in the bushes and give people heart attacks!"
   
The Perfect Treat: "Popcorn balls with dope in the middle! No really, I'd say when you'd get those big ol' Milky Way or Snickers bars from the rich families."
   
The Best Halloween Music: "Thats a toss-up. Either it would be 'Within The Realm of the Dying Sun' by Dead Can Dance or the mix tape Norman "Baron Shivers" Cabrerra of The Ghastly Ones made a couple of years back. I listen to it during the rest of the year when I want to feel "creepy."
   
The Perfect Halloween Double Feature: "Either: "Halloween" and "The Thing,"
"The Shining" and "The Changeling" or "Halloween" and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"
   
Where he'll be on Halloween 2009: "Probably haunting around some parties with a bottle of rotgut."
