DarkSide Studio Bringing Emmett Kelly Back to Life
That's right! Finally we're going to get an affordable reproduced Emmett Kelly mask courtesy of our friend Paul Daniels of DarkSide Studio. This isn't just an ordinary everyday tribute life like mask. For those not familiar with the story, the original 1967 Don Post Emmett Kelly mask was going to be used in John Carpenter's original Halloween movie....

As fate would have it the Kelly "clown" mask didn't make it into the final film as they went with the famous 1975 Don Post Captain Kirk mask instead. We have always wondered how the film would have turned out if the Kelly mask had been used. Would the story have held together and would the fan base have stayed true to the series if they didn't spray paint that Kirk mask? We will never know for sure but the Emmett Kelly mask certainly has it's own unique creepiness to it.
Below are sculpt pics of this "work in progress" Mr. Kelly mask. We will updated you the minute Paul makes these available as this is sure to be a hit. No word on whether these will be limited or not.


Below is what the Michael Myers from the original Halloween might have looked with the Emmett Kelly mask on...
