Cool Halloween Stuff No. 8

Released into the ether by Leo

We have already mentioned "Vampire Teeth" from the folks who brought you "Billy Bob" teeth. But if you're looking from some of the scariest, nastiest looking teeth for your Halloween costume, this is a great place to look.

Dental Distortions has a complete line of teeth for vampires, zombies, goblins, ghouls, orcs, and yes, even razorbacks. Like the teeth we've mentioned before, these fit over your own teeth, and employ a special thermoplastic for a perfect fit. You use warm water to soften the plastic, then the plastic molds around your teeth for a great fit.

Prices run in the $20 to $30 range for a set, and come complete with everything you need for a good fit.

ClearNeon

So, what does paint have to do with Halloween? Nothing, unless it's very cool paint!

ClearNeon makes a line of paints that are invisible under normal light, but very bright under UV light. So how does this play into Halloween?

You can create scary artwork that can't be seen during the day. Paint it on signs, trees, whatever. Then, as night starts to fall, turn on a blacklight, and as the sun goes down, your artwork appears. Or, if you use an incandescent blacklight bulb, you can use a dimmer to make the art appear and disappear at your command.

There are dozens of ways you can make use of this stuff. But it ain't your garden variety paint. Spray cans runs $24, as do 4 oz. bottles of the brush-on paint. If you like airbrushing, you can thin the brush-on paint with water.
