Press Release: Walk of the Dead event in Baltimore City During ComicCon

I just received this press release about a zombie walk in Baltimore this Saturday:

This is it!! The much anticipated Zombie Invasion of Baltimore City.

Due to the epic failure of the DC invasions creator not following through and still being a success to the enthusiastic response to the event regardless, ThE HoUsE of MisFiT ToYs has decided to sponsor an invasion of Baltimore City.

Starting in Federal Hill then traveling up Light St to Pratt St we will wreak undead havok on the Inner Harbor and then off to Fells... Point for a Bar Crawl up Odonnell St into Canton Square..

Our only request is that you put on your best undead faces and be respectful to the tenants and shop owners on our slow gruesome march through B-More.
Several media groups will also be photographing and covering the event, so put on your best ghoulish grin and grab some of the drink Specials available at participating Pubs and Restaurants in Fed Hill, Fells Pt, and Canton.

This event is free..
 We will be taking donations and also have t-shirts and other schwag available at the event to obviously cover permit costs and advertisement so throw us a rotting bloody hand to make this event the best zombie invasion yet. 
 
If you have any questions regarding the event, policies, or recommendations hit me up at jon@thehouseofmisfittoys.com or post your comments here.

Gay of the Dead

Gay of the Dead: “VINDICATION” writer/director Bart Mastronardi

This week on Ghost Adventures!

In it's 70 years of operation Wolfe Manor became the final resting place for thousands of people. The originals owners lost the home in the great depression. After sitting vacant for years, Wolfe Manor was turned into the Clovis Sanitarium. Former employees tell numerous stories about poor conditions,  mistreatment, and abuse of patients. 

Wolfe Manor housed 100-150 patients at a time until it was closed in 1997. Overcrowding was a constant problem, making it difficult for any patient to receive proper care. The rooms were so overcrowded that some patients slept in the hallways. With so many patients and a shortage of staff, there were a lot of deaths inside the mansion. Since there was no local coroner to come for the deceased the bodies had to be stored in the basement. They were sometimes there for days at a time. 

The spirits are Wolfe Manor are very "hands on." While researching some of the history behind the mansion Zak asks paranormal investigator Terry Campbell if he has ever been physically touched. "All the time. That is the most frequent thing that happens here," Terry responds. 

The guys hear voices and feel strange energy even before the lockdown begins. Wolfe Manor is sure to be a hair-raising investigation.
