Dragula at the yearly fall car show – local haunts

Local Car Show – I attended the yearly car show at Eisenhower Park, NY, and was surprised at the automobiles that appealed to my horror/sci-fi/super-hero tastes.

The highlights were the two Munster cars:

The Munster Koach

 

Dragula

Eddie Munster (now in his 60s) and Marilyn (now in her 70s (?) were at the event signing autographs, taking pictures and talking about the TV show.

The Batmobile looked magnificent in person. Despite the overcast day it shined like black glass.

We saw the Ghost Busters ambulance vehicle.

And the horror hearse that makes its rounds during the Halloween season.

We have the time machine Delorean from Back to the Future.

The Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit and Sheriff’s car were on hand.

And this Air Force inspired gem.

I love the old Chevy’s (55 Bel Aire) and the Custom Hot Rods. I had a great time taking pics and seeing cars from throughout the different decades

The Munsters – a monster sitcom for Halloween

I have both seasons (all episodes) on dvd and generally pull them out around the second or third week of October.

It is definitely my favorite monster sitcom of all time.

One of a kind home, in an early episode a young man says:
“It’s only raining on this block!”

Many guests would come for dinner.
