Proud to announce the new mascot for us here at HalloweenFurs :)
Meet Gomez!!
The halloween Pumpkin head demon, similar personality and folklore as SAM, from the movie Trick 'r Treat from 1996!
[excerpt from wikipedia explaining Sam]
Overview
Sam's name originates from Samhain, the origins of Halloween itself. He is depicted as a child dressed in a Halloween costume, which consists of an orange set of pajamas, and a mask made of a burlap sack with buttons for eyes. Sam drags a dirty sack around with him throughout the film, but its contents are unknown, presumably candy. Despite his childlike appearance, it is established that Sam is more demonic than he appears, hiding a pumpkin-shaped head resembling a skull. Dougherty described Sam's head as a cross "between an embryo and a pumpkin".[1] Quinn Lord, who plays Sam in the film, described his character as being a demon who was born in a pumpkin patch.
Behavior and purpose
Sam acts very much like a child, being mischievous and appearing to love chocolate. In a deleted scene in the film's DVD release, he appears flipping the bird to an obese boy.[2] Sam visits one town a year on Halloween to enforce the rules of the holiday and punish those who ignore and defy them. The rules include handing out candy to trick-or-treaters, wearing a costume, and never blowing out a jack o'lantern before midnight. As enforcer of the rules and rituals of Halloween, Sam takes it upon himself to punish those who break tradition. Sam is shown to be prone to violent or fatal punishments when it comes to rulebreakers, tormenting Brian Cox's character Mr. Kreeg, revealing his face in the process. Sam demonstrates supernatural abilities during his fight with Mr. Kreeg, such as immortality, an ability to scale walls, and being able to quickly paint a room's walls and ceilings with blood in mere moments. He spares Mr. Kreeg after the latter unintentionally offers him some chocolate. Afterwards, Sam is infuriated by another rulebreaker and ends up killing her and hanging her head up on display. Sam displays an ability to influence other supernatural events to occur. He also seems to never interfere with these supernatural activities, regardless of who dies, like Dylan Baker's character Steven Wilkins, a firm believer in the traditions of Halloween.
