For the past few years, in August, the town of Greeley and Distortions Unlimited have hosted Monster Day. Over the years we have enjoyed attending this great event that brings monsters from all walks of life together. Or, maybe we should say, all walks of dead?
It was quickly apparent that the Addams Family was the most popular theme. Due to the recent release of the Netflix series “Wednesday.” The show is from the imagination of Tim Burton. It stars Jenna Ortega in the title role, alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzman, and Gwendoline Christie. Christina Ricci, who previously played Wednesday, is even in the show. This sleuthing, supernaturally infused mystery is a recent media splash. And it was “Nevermore” apparent at Monster Days. We were even treated to a Wednesday dance contest. Featuring the song “Goo Goo Muck” by The Cramps from the Netflix version of Wednesday’s dance scene. Everyone competing showed their Wednesday talents and all knew the moves from the show.

The monster building talents of Distortions Unlimited were on display throughout the event. Ed and Marsha Edmunds, Owners of Distortions Unlimited had the crowd pumped up with their stage presence, talent displays, and rapid-fire mask giveaway. Ed quickly airbrushed monster masks and threw them into the audience. The crowd went wild. Click to view event video.

My favorite thing about the event was the group costumes and creativity all around us. So many came to the event with their monster on. The event was festive, fun, and extremely enjoyable. Click to view event video.
Make sure to mark your calendar for next year to attend Monster Day Greeley. Each year, it is usually slated for the second Saturday of August. One thing is for sure. We will be back next year. Click to view event video.
