Peruse the sci-fi freak show after the break from Etsy seller GeekyVixen and prepare to have nightmares that are far worse than the prequels.

This “Urban Legend” short film is probably a viral ad for something—but it’s fairly well done and sufficiently terrifying in a Paranormal Activity kind of way. At any rate, if you are falling asleep at work right now, this ought to help. Just make sure that you’ve pooped beforehand to preserve your pants. Always pre-poop before watching horror movies.
Video is NSFW for violence and thick accents.
Gah! If you want to hide from zombies, you go here. If you want to find zombies, head to this abandoned underground crypt in Belgium.
Check out more pics and info after the break.

Japan is no stranger to creepy robots, but if they are trying to emulate human babies with the Pneuborn-7II and Pneuborn-13 robots, they might want to go back to the drawing board. I don’t picture these robotic monstrosities laughing adorably on viral YouTube videos anytime soon. Seriously, it would have turned the bubble eating dog into one full minute of horror.
Using a sophisticated set of pneumatic muscles, researchers at Osaka University designed Pneuborn-7II to mimic the movement of a seven-month-old while Pneuborn-13 mimics a a 13-month old walking. The baby bots are set to debut at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Shanghai later this week.
Check out the walking version after the break.

We’ve featured scary shower curtains in the past, but this version is far, far creeper. It kind of defeats the purpose of having a bathroom when you always crap your pants before you actually reach the toilet.

The next time you hear a bump in the night, grab your gigantic rat torch and investigate. If there is a burglar downstairs, you might just scare him off with this thing. Also available in grub and eyeball versions. As a bonus, there is the Fright Light Sound Fx torch that functions as a normal flashlight, but with 8 chilling sound effects. All are pictured after the break.
We have come across remote controlled zombies before, but I think you will agree that the 4-foot long Dead Fred version is just a little more elaborate. It runs on four DC motors powered by two 12-volt batteries and it can groan, scream and talk in digital sound via an onboard amp and speaker. Plus, you can control the whole thing via a handy remote control. It’s definitely not cheap at $2650, but if you have the means, you might want to get in on the action early to get it in time for Halloween. A video of Dead Fred in action is available after the break.
The thing I like best about the “Merciless” Gargoyle Wall Sculpture is that it is subtle. Something than can blend in easily with the rest of your normal, everyday, non-gothic castle decor.
Seriously though, this amazingly detailed sculpture is the work of artist Gary Chang and accepts a standard 40-watt bulb.

This plush Grim Reaper stands at 9″ tall and plays spooky music when squeezed. Careful though—nibbling on Death all the time may convert your once docile dog to the dark side.
