Okay, This is Weird

I've never seen an entire Halloween store for sale on EBAY before.

Here are the photos the owner has posted. There's also a YouTube video to which the listing links.

I totes visualize this store as being located in a dead mall. I visualize the dead mall as being much spookier than the store itself.

It's 49K or best offer.

I wonder if he would mail the store to me envelope by envelope. Renting trucks is such a hassle.

If it were a Spirit Store, he'd probably have sold it already. They're such fun places.

I wonder if our Spirit Store is setting up in the area yet. I think they start moving back in around this time of year. The past few years they've been occupying a big box store that used to be a chain pet megastore. They sort of remind me of Something Wicked This Way Comes. That would have made a great name for the Spirit Stores (which actually sounds like a Christian name to me). But then I suppose the Bradbury estate would have sued the ghost sheets off them.

Oh, there's also a domain name for sale (25K) right below this listing, so I'm guessing that goes along with this. But I could be wrong.

Buy Your Casket on EBAY

"CUSTOM MADE-BIRCH & OAK CASKET-25 X 72-FUNERAL NEW/VINTAGE HARDWARE--BEAUTIFUL!"

A Clint Eastwood fan (note movie poster on wall) is selling a brand spanking new, throwback style coffin on EBAY.

I found myself wondering whether one could still be buried in an old school coffin like this? Aren't there state regulations now for containment? But then I suppose they go inside outer shells, so maybe the nature of the interior coffin doesn't matter.  Anyone know?

Somehow I think you'd rise again if you were buried in this very vampiresque coffin.

So the argument might be moot.

Seller says "Price has been lowered." Presumably so the coffin may be.

I smiled when I saw "No Returns."

Uh, yeah.

Oh, and check the MANTIQUES sign. Wow. "Ain't no sissies collecting antiques round these parts, podner. Now can I whip you up an appletini so we can slip a dvd in and watch shirtless Clint chop wood again?"
