Peel_Here_Scream
Welcome back to the Branded in the 80s Halloween Sticker Spooktac…er…actually I’ve decided to rename the countdown this year at the totally on point suggestion by my good buddy Paxton (of the Cavalcade of Awesome and my co-host on the Cult Film Club)! He came up with the Peel Here & Scream idea and I’m running with it.  Anyway, It’s day three and I’m moving right along through my favorite decade, this time to 1982 and yet another Hallmark monster-filed sticker sheet…

1982 Hallmark Halloween Stickers 3

This sheet is similar to the one I shared yesterday, but with a slightly cleaner illustration style.  I love the inclusion of the London After Midnight-esque vampire and the grave-digger skeleton.  Also, patches must have been huge in 82 because practically every character on this sheet has some sort of patch on their garments.  Now that I’m thinking about it I love the look of patches on a ghost as it reinforces the who entity under a sheet visual.  The one aspect of this sheet that’s off is the glaringly inappropriate wizard character.  Sigh, c’mon Hallmark, get your act together.  Monsters or bust!

Come back by tomorrow for another piece of vintage Halloween sticker ephemera, and be sure to head on over to the Countdown to Halloween to check out a metric ton of other sites participating in this month-long celebration of spooky goodness.
