Bones will rattle, stairs will creak.

Your outcomes looking pretty bleak.

Thunder booms and lightning crashes, leaving boots filled with ashes.

As we lay you down to rest, we read the pages of the Dead Man's Digest.

Now,

this is a...

...this is dead.

... Hello, Boyles and Goals, and welcome to another edition of the Dead Man's Digest.

This is Darren, and the spooky empire horror convention that takes place every year in Orlando just happened last weekend.

And Mike Iiello and the creative crew of Halloween Horror Nights took the stage to give a presentation about the event.

We have audio from the panel, thanks to Eric from behind the thrills.com.

It features some behind the scenes info and some really cool stories, one in particular about an unused icon that I hope they find a way to incorporate into the event in the future.

But before we get into that, Universal announced Tuesday that Jack is back.

Jack Schmidt, no relation.

Or is there? A resident clown and icon for Halloween Horn

Knights Orlando is returning to usher in the 25th anniversary. Universal released a

really cool video featuring Jack which at UUO Podcast.com. I also compiled some of Jack's

history to get you brushed up on his involvement in past events,

so make sure to check that out.

So what do you think about Jack?

Do you have any cool memories with him you'd like to share, you know, the previous events

that he's been to?
