Dino Drac’s Spicy Sweet Potato Fries!
If you’re gonna survive the 2020 Halloween season, you’ll need to make your own fun. Many of the things we formerly relied on will be closed, or altered to the point of pointlessness. It’s a DIY-or-die situation.
Here’s an idea: Cook spooky stuff! Buy one of those overpriced recipe mags from Stop & Shop’s impulse section, make some mummy hot dogs, and see where life takes you. I’ve done that sort of thing plenty of times, and it’s never failed to make the Halloween season feel like the Halloween season.
I’ll start you off with an easy one. Here’s my recipe for spicy sweet potato fries, because sweet potatoes are autumnal at heart, and appropriately orange.
Some of you aren’t big on sweet potatoes. I’m not, either. I came out of the womb cursing sweet potatoes, and was of legal drinking age by the time I could eat a forkful without complaint. If you’re not quite ready to jump in the pool but are maybe okay with dipping in your toes, these fries are perfect. Read More…
The 2020 Halloween Countdown BEGINS NOW!
This year is garbage, so over the next two months, I’m gonna do my best to bring you several smiles and maybe some of those wax lips with the vampire teeth. They taste like the perfume version of bubble gum, have you noticed?
What I’m saying is…
Welcome to Dinosaur Dracula’s 2020 Halloween Countdown.
THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS! (WATCH ON YOUTUBE)
MADD MATT RETURNS! (WATCH ON YOUTUBE)
I’ll be adding spooky treats to Dino Drac all season long, from articles about haunted TV commercials to videos about haunted candy, to other things about other haunted things. Let’s kick things off with the two vids embedded above — the traditional Countdown kickoff music video, and a look at Madd Matt’s latest bag of Halloween junk. (Things get pretty weird in both videos, honestly.)
The videos are why most of you are here, but don’t go! I have more to show you! Read More…

Dino Drac’s Eerie August Funpack!
I have good news and bad news!
The good news is that I’m finally ready to show ya the Eerie August Funpack — the first of three Halloween-themed Funpacks for 2020!
The bad news is… it’s already sold out. Subscriptions definitely are, though I may have a few spares left to sell on an individual basis once I finish my counts. (I’ll get to that at the bottom of this post.)
For all intents, this post is really just to tell current subscribers what they’ll be receiving. If you’re on the list, I hope you dig the goods!
The Eerie August Funpack is sure to help you kick off the Halloween season in a big, scary way. It’s loaded with old school spooky collectibles, haunted snacks, macabre art and maybe even a cute plushie bat!
Let’s look at what you’ll be receiving… Read More…
