Welcome to AFJ's 31 Days of Horror Figures 2019. For the month of October, we will be spotlighting the very best of the macabre, bizarre, monstrous, and villainous action figures the industry has to offer. There will be both old and new figures here and perhaps even a significance to why we picked that figure for that day (and perhaps not). This is NOT a ranking list, just full-blown horror fun for the greatest month of the year.
"When Halloween Was Forever" is an insane and dark episode of The Real Ghostbusters (Season 1, Episode 8). From that episode comes Samhain. He is one of those dark characters that stick with you years after you watch the episode. We picked the 2011 Mattel Retro-action Real Ghostbusters Firehouse Janine Melnitz and Samhain, well more the Samhain to rock our 31 Days of Horror Figures because it was long overdue for an action figure.
Special thanks to Ethan Wilson from The Figure in Question for use of his Samhain photos above.
