Halloween is quickly sneaking up on us. That means it’s almost time to watch all our favorite classic horror movies. Nothing starts off the spooky season better thanJohn Carpenter’s Halloweenand now Gutter Garb has unveiled their new officially licensedHalloweencollection that is sure to give fans at least one good scare.
The shirts in the collection successfully take us back to Halloween night 1978 with a blend of nostalgic imagery and new frightening designs. In terms of classic images, we have the iconic poster that sees Michael Myers’ knife slash create a jack-o-lantern face. They’re also doing re-releases of their 2012 and 2013 designs that feature two images of Myers fromHalloween’s now legendary promotional material. Images that were heavily used for the film’s original run. The bright orange color of the latter two shirts will make you feel a chill from the impending fall season and help your horror loving heart stand out in a crowd.
The last two designs feature a great artful interpretation of “The Night He Came Home” highlighting some of the best moments fromHalloweenwithJamie Lee Curtis’ Laurie Strode,Donald Pleasance’s Dr. Loomis, and “The Boogeyman” himself in tow. One is a VHS-inspired reprint that’s eye-pleasing blue and pinkish color palette pop off the shirt while the new 2022 design has a haunting image of Myers staring into your soul. These two shirts have a zip up hoodie variant as well that features the franchise’s pumpkin logo on the front and the main designs on the back.
