Halloween Series Finale: Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween friends! After a week of busy Halloween posts I thought I'd present a few "retro" images of Halloween for you to enjoy. When I think of Halloween, the Munsters tend to come to mind. I used to love that show, Herman and Lilly, Grandpa, Eddie, and of course, poor Marilyn. She wasn't very pretty compared to the rest of the family. Speaking of Marilyn, I wonder, did you prefer Beverly Owen or Pat Priest as Marilyn? Go ahead, leave a comment, I'd love to hear your opinion. In the meantime I hope you have a Happy, Haunted Halloween!
And now, some retro Halloween Art:

    OMG! I love the Munsters, they were favorite show of mine. I think I always liked Pat Priest as Marilyn better. Happy Halloween to you too!

    Always thought Vivian Munster was very glam. Love your retro images, esp the sexy wish - all things Vargaesque have a place close to my heart and and love the vintage postcard cat (last one).
    Have a Happy!

    I love the retro art. I know there were 2 Marilyn's, but I don't remember which one I liked best. I'd have to see photos side by side.

    I love the pin-up witch. Before I married my husband, we broke up a few times just because my life was crazy. I got him back when I had some pin-ups made and sent them to him. . .

    I was a huge Munsters fan. Watched it all the time, back in the day.

    Happy Halloween to you. Pictures to follow?
