The good folks at the Prop Store are planning to hold a huge auction of screen-used props from November 9th through 11th, with more than 1000 pieces of film and television memorabilia being auctioned off. The Prop Store’s total haul is expected to come in somewhere around $7.6 million. What makes this auction especially interesting to us here at Arrow in the Head is the fact that there are going to be a couple pieces of iconic horror gear up for grabs: Freddy Krueger’s glove from A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and Michael Myers’ mask from Halloween: Resurrection, the eighth film in the Halloween franchise.
TMZ reports that Freddy’s glove is expected to go for a price between $27,600 and $41,400. Although Dream Warriors happens to be much more popular than Halloween: Resurrection, that film’s version of the Myers mask is expected to pull in a similar amount.
Nineteen years have passed since the release of Halloween: Resurrection, so the mask is sporting some signs of aging at this point. The mask was worn by stuntman Brad Loree in the film.
Freddy’s Dream Warriors glove is now about thirty-five years old, but it’s holding up quite well. Of course, the person who wore the glove in the film was the legendary Robert Englund.
Other items that will be up for auction include Val Kilmer’s sonar batsuit from Batman Forever, Will Ferrell’s elf costume from Elf, Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man 3 Spidey costume, and Wilson the volleyball from Cast Away – among many other things.
I do find it kind of sad that Wilson is expected to go for more money ($55,200 – $82,800) than the Freddy glove and the Michael Myers mask, but that’s what happens when you get carried around by Tom Hanks.
How much do you think the screen-used Freddy glove and the Michael Myers mask should go for in the auction?
