Maria S. made this super cool version of the Misfits' Crimson Ghost. In her words, "I was having a lazy Sunday. Not just A lazy Sunday, but rather, the MOTHER of ALL lazy Sundays. I was feeling a little down and missing my partner Matt who lives in a different city - Montreal, to be precise - a little more than usual. So to perk up my spirits, I decided to get creative and produce a little gift for him. I selected a dish from the cupboard, broke out the ketchup and mustard and "drew" the Crimson Ghost, because Matt is a hardcore fan of the Misfits. Thus, I sent him this picture in the hope to make him smile, as much as making this "skull" made me smile."Paul van Buuren shared this video of his "house skull, Johannes"!

Ken Cox, of Newark, Delaware made this incredible bicycle headbadge! In his words, "The vinyl logo that adorned my black Misfit Psycles single speed mountain bike just didn't cut it, so I recreated their flaming skull logo using cuttlebone cast pewter. By carving out the shell of a cuttlefish (commonly available for pet birds to peck on), you create a mold to pour molten pewter into. The 'grain' is the natural pattern of the cuttlebone." Photos of the mold and more of the headbadge are HERE.
