Blow Molds, Dry Ice, and the Smell of a Latex Mask with Jorge Garcia (Special Halloween Episode!)

Side Crafts

In this special Halloween episode, Jocelyn Hallman talks to Jorge Garcia (LOST, Hawaii Five-0, Alcatraz, The Munsters) about his passion for Halloween crafting and building. We discuss Jorge's early memories of drawing, creating, and dressing up for Halloween, and how he got into creating yard displays and hosting pumpkin carving parties. We also talk about some of the props he built for the Skeleton Key haunted maze in Hawaii, specific techniques he uses for "corpsing" and other Halloween crafting, and the Halloween traditions he shares with his friend community - and now, with his partner and young child.
This episode also includes a bonus tangent on Christmas crafting and baking, and Jorge shares his process for screenprinting t-shirts by hand.
Photos of some of the projects discussed may be found on the Side Crafts Instagram @sidecraftspodcast!
