2) Who owns and runs the H.M.A.?
My name is Eric Austin and I've had a monster problem ever since I was a child! BUT SERIOUSLY FOLKS, I'm just a guy who's always had a love for monsters and the people behind them. I've always wanted to have a life-size Frankenstein and Freddy in my living room but, I soon found out there was no place to buy the film prop quality pieces I was looking for. While in the disgust of not being able to have the pieces I wanted, I decided that I'd search out the artists who could make my dream a reality. I opened up a little web site called The Halloween Mask Association, contacted various artists, worked on it bit by bit, and here we are now!!!

3) I'm a serious mask collector who's interested in purchasing some of the pieces I saw on this web site, how do I place an order?
All you have to do is click on the piece that you're interested in purchasing and follow the simple ordering instructions.

4) I'm a artist who's interested in producing and selling a mask / bust on the H.M.A. web site, what do I need to do?
The H.M.A. is constantly searching for new talent to help bring film prop quality pieces to today's collector. The H.M.A. has displayed various items made by Top Mask Makers and Special FX artists from all over the country. If you're a mask artist or special effects person who's interested in selling your work on the H.M.A. site, please email us at [email protected] with some portfolio pics and a little about yourself. After we receive your email, we will reply back with all of the details.

5) Is the H.M.A. a big mask factory somewhere where I can visit?
I suppose you could come visit me here at the H.M.A. nerve center however, all you'd find is me hunched over a computer desk smoking cigarettes and drinking Diet Coke! We call it The Halloween Mask ASSOCIATION because, it is an Association of artists spread across the country bringing the best monsters into collector's homes. Each piece offered through the H.M.A. site is made in it's own artist's workshop.
