Halloween pinball machine trailer released and it looks awesome!

Just last week, we caught word that Spooky Pinball LLC is working on an officially licensed pinball machine based on John Carpenter's 1978 classic Halloween (watch it HERE). Now a trailer has been released online that gives us a look at the machine in action, and this thing looks incredible!

Boasting very cool 2D artwork by Jason Edmiston, who also helped conceptualize some of the 3D game mechanics, this machine has a custom knife handle shooter rod, multiple Michael Myers hiding behind hedge rows, a flashing pumpkin sculpt, Judith Myers' tombstone – they even got PJ Soles to record the line "Totally awesome score!"

Spooky Pinball had this to say about the project: 

Finally… the iconic horror film that started it all. Spooky Pinball LLC & Compass International Pictures are bringing the 1978 classic, John Carpenter's Halloween to the PINBALL WORLD! Pick up a Spooky Pinball Fang Club membership to get early access to what may be the biggest SPOOKY PINBALL GAME EVER!!!

I figured we'd know a lot more about this pinball machine before October, but didn't expect such a dazzling trailer to be released online already. I definitely won't be able to own one of these Halloween pinball machines myself, but I hope I'll have the chance to play one someday.
