About

CHRIS BAKER – Creator and G/Host
Chris began learning the “dark arts” at an early age by attending Catholic elementary school. The nuns beat the Jesus out of young Chris and sent him down a harrowing path. He pursued his masters in torture by attending Don Bosco high school located in the Combat Zone in Boston. Mixing and mingling with the harlots he passed to and from school further warped his already deranged mind. Upon graduation he vowed to seek vengeance on the world for serving an unjust sentence in an all boys high school. Once a year, on All Hallows Eve, he wreaks havoc upon his neighborhood as a way to gain closure on his past.

JOHNNY THUNDER – Fright Flicks
The 7th son of a 7th son, Johnny Thunder is the illegitimate love child of Aquanetta the Jungle Woman and Dynamo Dan the Electric Man. After a globe-trotting, misspent youth which included stints as a sauerkraut-juggling carnie, a fetish pin-up model, and several months as Barnabas Collins’ personal assistant, Johnny became the ward of the kindly Dr. Frank N. Stein. Along with his newfound step-soul brother Blackenstein, Johnny took an early interest in horror films, novels and comic books. Later, Johnny attended the prestigious Cool Ghoul Academy in Transylvania where he earned his degree as Master of Scaremonies.

SHELLHAWK – The Charmed Pot
Born in the wilds of Los Angeles, The Mistress of Mayhem was later educated at Miskatonic University, where she double-majored in Home Economics and Spell-Casting/Potions. She loves shipwrecks on the beach, vacationing in the Bermuda Triangle under a full moon, open graves, and swing dancing. For fun, she likes to spike the punch at Church parties with her strongest passion potion and giggle at the ensuing hijinks. She is currently enjoying a quiet life with her vulture, Ralph, and her third husband, who seems to have a strong resistance to iocaine powder, unlike the last two. She is thought to be nearly human.

DENHAUNT – Prop Shop
After wasting his youth in the seedy underbelly of the Austin,Texas bar scene and bored with the nightly attempts at achieving new lows in drunken depravity, Denhaunt packed up the booze, grabbed his beautiful bride, and headed east. There was something about those crisp dark Octobers, the rustling leaves, the earthy smell of the harvest beginning to rot – the dark obsession had begun to take hold. These days the years are measured between Halloweens and the success of that wonderful night are determined by the pitch of the ear-piercing screams.

REVENANT – Theater of the Mind & News from Beyond
Main Entry: rev·e·nant

Function: noun
Etymology: French, from present participle of revenir to return
Date: 1818: one that returns after death or a long absence
When at last he escaped the toil and chaos of the living world, he was free to ponder its spectacle and meaning from the comfort of The Void. Gliding through the ageless corridors of the Nether Realms, he seeks those places where the veil between worlds grows thin and tattered, and through the shadows he comes to peer once again into the world of flesh that you claim as your own. Under cover of darkness he watches silently, and it occurs to him that none of it still makes much sense.

GRIMLOCK – Access Hollyween
What we know of Mr. Grimlock’s current state is limited. What we know of his past is almost endless. A self taught and funded archaeologist, Mr. Grimlock spent his twenties and thirties abroad. Living with tribes in Brazil, camping with the cannibals in the rainforest, Mr Grimlock was addicted. He was obsessed with the inner workings of the less civilized groups of people and their religions. He accepted numerous awards for the work he did, including the coveted “Magiks of the World” award for his essays on voodoo and witch doctors. Grimlocks current whereabouts are unknown however, he remains in limited contact with his vast followers sending words of his journeys through a broadcast radio channel and various written diaries.

HOUSE BLOODTHORN – Graphics/Art Director
Guy is the casket-case responsible for all the Hauntcast graphics, the website, marketing materials, t-shirts and other swag. Hailing originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, he and his brood of bloodthirsty fledglings now make their coven in the dark woods of the Pacific Northwest. He spends his free time sewing up zombie lips, fleeing angry pitchfork-wielding mobs, fluffing his coffin pillow and dodging Chris Baker’s phone calls.
