The Poster for Johnon Carpenter's Light Halloween in 1978 "Halloween" of 1978 It's scary, subtle and pretty brilliant. It was painted by artist Bob Glason, and his original poster design sold for $ 84,000 at auction in 2016. Business Insider Reported in 2022, Glyson explained in a special auction letter that the hidden symbol in the poster should not have been there. If one look at the poster's fist carefully, one can be able to make a person in the knees and veins. The second digger looks a bit like a nose, while the third and fourth knees can be seen as lips (with veins resembling worms crawling from the orifs on the face).

Glason assured buyers: It was not his intention.

Talking to Magazine Fangoria In 2022 He noticed that the grooves that bypass the pumpkin can be shaded in a stuck shape, a picture as a knife, a picture that can be used in combination with a real knife. The poster, you may notice, shows the hand of Michael Mayers Iconic Killer Michael Meyers Holding a large, rounded kitchen knife, melting in a repeated pattern that forms the face of a Jack-o-hair.

Glason's managers were not too fondybors of his idea, feeling that the Meyers white mask should be set a pre-and-center, not the knife. However, soon after Glason's leaders came around and allowed him to make the poster he loved. (It took him three or four days.) 44 years later, Glason returned to paint the poster for David Gordon Green's film in 2022 "Halloween ends", He also painted the posters of Johnon Carpenter's "fog", "Force Revenge" by Chuck Norris, and Bruce Lee's "game of death" in the meantime.

A special letter at Glason's auction explained that a picture similar to the face of Meyers fist on the "Halloween" poster is a really common coincidence. As he said:

"While painting my hand, my thought was to have dramatic lights and dark shapes to match the effects of pumpkin stab.

When someone sees the monster, it's hard to see. Tony Moran, who played 20-thing Meyers in Carpenter's "Halloween", even teased the attendees of the Film Convention on this once (through Ladbible). "Do you see this hand? That's something other than a hand," he asked. "Well, I will not tell you, we will look at it, a brother." When participating in the participants, Moran replied: "If you see it, don't say a word. Don't say a word."

That said, it is easy to believe that this detail was unintended. As early as the 1990s, I remember hearing that the stuck pumpkin "teeth" on the "Halloween" poster, paired with a knife, separates two main boundaries to mark Meyers's initials. This was also certainly a coincidence. Indeed, it is probably that most "hidden details" in film posters are just unusual whims of their artists.

Perhaps the most inadvertent, there was a long -standing rumor that Disney's disgruntled employee hid a form of phallus in The original poster art for the animated "Little Mermaid" in the studio. As a "screaming monster with worms", it was also purely accidental.
