The Reinke Brothers' 15-foot monster! How To Have A Horrifying Halloween
Week of October 19, 2003

The sign at Reinke Brothers says it all: "It's Not Just A Store ... It's An Adventure!" That is a great description for the nondescript warehouse-type building on South Prince Street ... a block north of Littleton Boulevard.

Inside, you'll find a huge selection of skulls, masks, fake hands, life-size horror movie figures, makeup and much more. You can shop 'til you drop 12 months out of the year for Colorado's best selection of everything scary.

Along the aisles of smiles are great props and displays ... many of which have been used in Hollywood movies. Greg Reinke & his brother are often working in L.A., but they're both happy to call Littleton home.

Among what you'll see: the 15-foot prehistoric monster that guards the entrance to the haunted mansion [ABOVE, RIGHT] ...

In October, the store takes on special significance. It's busy ... real busy. Folks are looking for just the "right thing" for Halloween.
