Here's another new feature debuting in 2011 at Macabre Republic. Universal Monsters in Our Midst will chronicle the various ways in which the iconic film characters have permeated American pop culture (you might think of it as a product guide for monstrophiles). The first item to be highlighted is:
Classic Monster Mountain
Forget the national monument--this is a Universal monument. Just don't call it "Count Rushmore"--Dracula, the Mummy, the Wolfman, and Frankenstein are all headliners here. The quartet of legendary grotesques get the Presidential treatment, their likenesses immortalized in a faux cliff-face (composed of "heavy weight polystone material"). Just be careful if you move this miniature monument to monstrosity into your home. Rumor has it that the Gill-Man, enraged at his exclusion, is slogging his way from the Black Lagoon and intends to stomp out every last replica.

By the way, wouldn't this make for the coolest tombstone ever (if some unabashed monster-lover had the money to commission such a carving)?
