I'd like to thank all the FIENDS for 40 years and four generations of horror business. That time has come, and that time is NOW.
There are rare exceptions when something takes root and grows slowly, beneath the surface, until it eventually takes over. Survival is the challenge.some creations wither and die, destined for extinction, while others endure the test of time. The Misfits were so far ahead of their time when we began back in 1977, that it took the world 40 years to catch up. That statement sums up this situation at its core. NEW 40TH LOGO, EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW, NEW TEES & MORE.Ī famous quote once foretold, "Nothing is stronger than an idea whose time has come".
