Lord Grimley’s Manor Has You Covered (Your Bodies Anyway) For The 2026 Haunt Season!

Lord Grimley’s Manor Has You Covered (Your Bodies Anyway) For The 2026 Haunt Season!

by Matt Boiselle

 

I remember back in the good old days (yes, I’m dating myself) of heading into the local drug store or supermarket to gaze in amazement at the Halloween costumes that were for sale, nicely packaged in cardboard and plastic boxes, complete with flimsy vinyl coveralls and a mask held onto your brain-bucket by a single strand of elastic band. We as kids didn’t care, strapping those cheap disguises on for Halloween night, which raised our internal core temperatures another 10-15 degrees, all for the sake of collecting as much diabetes-forming candy as we could cram into our pillowcases or plastic pumpkins. Now, with the advent of things like “Trunk Or Treat” (blasphemy), and Spirit Halloween taking over as the one-stop shop for your spooking needs, I feel like a lot of the joy has been stripped and the anticipation knocked down a peg when it comes to each respective Autumnal equinox.

However, there is salvation just past the front gates of Lord Grimley’s Manor – he’s described by his minions as “a twisted monster & financial genius – one who is evil, yet commands the ultimate respect from the souls who serve beneath him”…and the products he offers are simply the stuff of Halloween legend. As of the writing of this article, we’re around 220 days until October 31st (and if you say you’re not counting, then you’re lying), and I know that a lot of you are already prepping for the night when the spirit veil is at its thinnest, and black cats run wild…so you’re going to need some serious merch, am I right?

Well, allow me to hold the door while you step inside the manor’s dusty and dark confines, where you’ll find some of the craziest, most detailed and downright devilish costumes, props, home decor and maniacal miscellaneous that your grizzled, blood-caked mitts can tighten their grip around, and they’re already taking pre-orders for some new items, so let’s have a look.

 

Just note that the above items are merely scratching a small piece of the scab off of the flesh wound – the amount of products on their site is simply astounding. I’d also like to WHOLEHEARTEDLY thank the minions for offering up a couple of their masks for review – these arrived at my crypt the other day, and my jaw had to be wired back into place after unleashing them. First up was the “Duchess Of Devonshire” sculpted by Anders Lerche – with its beady, dead white eyes, sharp teeth and tightly wound hairdo, this undead socialite is creepy enough to scare the cheeze-whiz out of anyone who dares to get caught up in her gaze. Next was the “Subarctic Zombie” sculpted by Jordu Schell, who’s work back in films such as “Avatar”, “Hellboy” and “Alien: Resurrection” more than proves that his designs were meant to adorn your skull in the best way possible. The craftsmanship, fit and ultimate look are at an apex, and the Lord’s prices are quite affordable as well – trust me when I tell you, these aren’t any cheap one-wear-and-they’re-done masks – these are built for the long haul, and my writing room at home is testament to that as I’ve ordered numerous coverings to be mounted on my walls…disturbingly decorative, in my opinion.

So, this haunt season if you want to hit up your local big-name retailer for some assembly-line getup that will more than likely get tossed out on November 1st, have at it – but if you want a horrific investment for all your spooky needs, then get on over to Lord Grimley’s Manor and do some shopping.  https://www.lordgrimley.com/
