It's here again folks! Taking a quick break from all the buying, sorting, boxing, and of course talking to you love lot, we're back with another little insight into one unsuspecting member of the TruffleShuffle super group to see who they are, what they do here and just what makes them tick.

As scary as it seems, Halloween is just around the corner! Well where did year go? Here at TruffleTowers we loooove this time of year, getting to create and dress up as some of our favourite spooky characters, or maybe even turning some not so frightful icons into their zombie or vampire versions. Or if you're feeling lazy, simply rock one of our amazing Movie T-Shirts which includes some horror classics too. How can you not love that right?

Well! To help get you ghoolish guys and wolftastic women into the Halloween spirit, we thought we would make a quick list of some of our all-time favourite horror films that really give us the heebeegeebees. Now sit back, check behind the sofa obviously and enjoy some of these 80s classics!

A Nightmare on Elm Street

Teenagers in a small town are dropping like flies, apparently in the grip of mass hysteria causing their suicides. A cop's daughter (Heather Langenkamp) traces the cause to child molester Fred Krueger (Robert Englund), who was burned alive by angry parents many years before. Krueger has now come back in the dreams of his killers' children, claiming their lives as his revenge. With a supporting cast that includes horror veterans like John Saxon and Ronee Blakley, director Wes Craven creates moments of real dread by examining the line between nightmares and reality, as well as the "sins of the parents" theme. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi

Jack Frosts nose! More Weekend movie shenanigans!

So on a cold winters evening let us serve up to you, whilst in front of a roaring fire, snuggled up warm and cosy on the couch in your winter woollies, a big old steaming broth of soup as we lovingly stir in chunks of retro cinematic delight and slices of golden movie moments and dip in ripped up pieces of celluloid greatness. Mmmmm tasty!

Have a happy retro weekend :-)
