Welcome to the news section of Screamline Studios. As with other news links on web pages, this is designed to keep you up to date on events and happenings with Screamline Studios.
Currently we are gearing up for another successful year at the Transworld Halloween, Costume and Party show. Last year we had a great time, you can see what we had on display if you go to the Props page. Once again we will be appearing along side our good friends Midnight Syndicate with a few new props and displays. More to come on this as the event gets closer.
You may have noticed the "coming soon props for sale" sun burst on the homepage and have been wondering where are they since that has been posted for some time. Hopefully we will have some items for you to look at and buy very soon. We have been very busy with the holidays, but rest assured we are getting ready for a great 2004. In the mean time if you have any questions or quote requests, be sure and visit the Contact section and drop us an e-mail.
Be sure to stop back and check for updates!
Until next time, dwell in darkness -

Well, Screamline Studios has just returned from the 2004 Transworld Halloween, Costume and Party show and I must say we had a grand time. Thanks to all our friends both old and new that stopped by Midnight Syndicates booth and said hello. It was good to talk with you. If you were unable to attend this year, I will be posting a few pics in this very section soon for your viewing pleasure. We managed to have a successful showing this year and a lot of people showed interest in the talents of Screamline.
I'll have much more soon....

Hey ghouls and boyles, we thought we'd delight your desire for the darkness with another gut wrenching update. We are currently working on the prop ordering shopping cart page, but until that is done you can check out what we have to offer right HERE (you'll also note a new props for sale button on the homepage and the props page). We have several new props and display pieces that were painstakingly hand crafted with the utmost attention to detail for sale and we want to make sure you can get your wretched little hands on them. For now, you may drop us an e-mail if you choose to darken your hovel or disgust your guests this season in your haunt with an order. If you want a flyer mailed to you, let us know and we will get one out. They're free, but it will cost you your soul as we'll add you too the mailing list of tortured spirits.
Here is a tasty tid bit for your churning stomach... The creeps from Screamline just might be showing up and the Midwest Haunters Convention in Columbus this year, so if you haven't made plans to attend you might just miss out on seeing our repulsive mugs. Info on the event can be found HERE.

Well fiends, "All Hollows" or as the everyday creeps know it "Halloween" is almost upon us. Speaking of Creeps, be sure to make your pick on November 2nd, which ironically enough is the day after "All Saints" day which falls on November 1st. Just remember whichever Ghoul the majority elects, the sun will bring brightness the next day which unfortunately will destroy the darkness as it always does. Can't we get them to do something about that?
Anyway before I curl back into the shadows, I hope this Halloween season has been a delightfully eerie one for all you goblins and witches out there.
In the coming months long after Big Rigger has smoked your local chain stores inventory of cigarettes 3 times over, we will again begin churning up our cauldrons of cursed brew, cooking up more nasty concoctions to disgust you for next season.
Since I mentioned Brew, how could I also not mention Kintuck has succeeded in his life long goal of downing an entire bottle of "Wild Turkey" without tossing it back up in the back of someone's SUV at the end of the night. We are all very proud of him.
I also can't forget to divulge that nothing has gone right since my last update, well at least not for Crowfoot. He just cannot be content with being awarded the publishers clearing house sweepstakes. As matter of fact, someone said that when they came to the door with the balloons and that giant check all he could do was curse them out for interrupting him while he was watching "Leave it to Beaver". He spit as he yelled that Ward was just about to give Wally the business and now he was going to miss it!!
I guess an update cannot be complete without some allusion to the Boob. You know our fledgling is really coming along, why just the other day he realized the Formula 409 cleans much better than the spic-n-span he was using. He also remarked to me that the toilet flushes much better if he does it midway during his loaf pinching then if he waits until the end once it is full. I think I feel a tear welling in my eye. sniff.... Our little Boob is growing up...

Screamline Studios is proud to announce that it has won 1st place at the 8th Annual Halloween Costume Party which was held at the Avenue Grille and Bar in Mentor Ohio.
The giant 2 headed "Special Ed" Costume took the tavern by surprise with its intricate detail and intimidating height. The Costume design was the brain child of Screamline's Big Rigger aka Jason Blaszczak along with the skilled labor and long hours of the Boob (Todd Poole) with some minor help from Crowfoot (Steve Martini) and Kintuck (Sean Moffet). The Boob played the role of Special Ed with an outstanding performance which pleased the crowd and left them cheering for more.
The costume which has been in production since March 2004 can be seen at the Photos page listed above.
We are all very pleased with our success and would like to thank the Staff at the Avenue Grille and Bar for a fun night!
Well what are you waiting for? Go check out those pics!

Long-time, no dreadful update. Well to make up for lost time; we will get right to the point.
We have just returned from the Midwest Haunters Convention and the crew is overworked, underpaid, and just plain beat to a pulp. We had to whip them with extension cords just to keep them motivated.
Recap -
The Boob sweated a lot and added his natural essence to his already foul back door odor all weekend. He later proclaimed he was preparing for his "Granny" character and want to really play up the part, unfortunately the small children that came near him had to be drug away to a well ventilated area to be revived.
Kintuck took great pride in avoiding any kind of work; he refused to lift anything heavier than a beer bottle, however, he managed to lift one after another for long periods of time with no problem. He also had enough energy to lift several helpings of food to his mouth.
Big Rigger delighted in coming in first place in the "how many packs of cigarettes can I smoke in a day contest", he beat his old record of 14 packs with 15, To that we say, congratulations! An award ceremony soon followed afterwards where he was presented the coveted golden cigarette trophy. When asked how he felt he responded, "Well I am a little disappointed, I was hoping to get a gift certificate for a free lung transplant, I guess there is always tomorrow"
Crowfoot didn't stray from his usual course of dissent by going into several tirades about how the "invisible forces" were against us all and the Sun in Northeast Ohio may very well never shine again. He was particularly perturbed about this because earlier in the week leading up to the show, he proclaimed to the gods that "This is the end to the 70-day rain, our soil is saturated with your bounty". Alas he was thwarted again by their relentless downpours. He was last heard mumbling "this is freaking bullshit" over and over.
All in all the show was a great experience and Screamline Studios can say they are no longer virgins to the convention circuit. We look forward to future shows and events. We put a lot of effort and pride into our booth so take a look at a few pictures from the show.
