INCREDIBLE HORROR PROPS & COSTUMES TO BE SOLD AS PART OF LOS ANGELES MEMORABILIA AUCTION NEXT MONTH

PROPSTORE’S LIVE AUCTION WILL GIVE MOVIE FANS THE CHANCE TO OWN SOME OF THE MOST RECOGNIZABLE PROP AND COSTUME PIECES FROM THE HORROR WORLD.

LOS ANGELES, CA, USA, July 23, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Top lots up for auction include the Ghostface costume worn by Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) and Stu Macher (Matthew Lillard) in the 1996 classic, SCREAM. This costume is expected to fetch between $50,000 and $100,000. Matched to early scenes in the film it is regarded as the “holy grail” of Scream memorabilia.

In addition to Ghostface, the auction showcases lots from some of horror’s most iconic characters, including a Jason Vorhees Screen-matched Hocky Mask from FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VIII: JASON TAKES MANHATTAN (1989), Freddy Krueger's (Robert Englund) Bloodied Razor-Claw Glove from NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 5: THE DREAM CHILD (1989) est. $25,000 - $50,000 and Chucky (Brad Dourif) Good Guys Doll with Screen-Matched Dungaree from CHILD'S PLAY 2 (1990).

Another of the auction’s highlights is the stunt Necronomicon Ex-Mortis from EVIL DEAD II (1987). This screen-matched prop, expected to fetch between $80,000 and $160,000, is a must-have for horror memorabilia. This awesome prop also made cameos in Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993) and Pumpkinhead II: Bloodwings (1994) and is believed to be the first Evil Dead II Necronomicon to be offered at auction.

Ahead of this year's release of the BEETLEJUICE (1988) sequel, fans of the horror-comedy can bid on their very own Handbook for the Recently Deceased, estimated to sell for between $5,000 and $10,000.
