Show Your 'Stache for Men's Health in MOvember.

Freddie was having lunch at a the counter of his favorite diner, when an man with a bushy mustache, heavy beard, and thick glassed sat down next to him. Freddie looked over at the man and thought to himself "That dude REALLY doesn't want people drawing on pictures of him!"

It's MO-vember at Freddie's Fun Place. Men all over the world grown their mustache out during November as a visible reminder to "change the face of men's health. Men need regularly scheduled checkups for prostate cancer and testicular cance. They are often slow to address mental health concerns or thoughts of su***de they may experience.
You can participate in MO-vember by starting to grow a mustache, or having a personal goal (called a MOment) to drawn attention to this important campaign.

10/31/2024

Starting tomorrow, it's MOvember at Freddie's Fun Place!

Movember is an annual event involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men's health issues, such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and men's su***de.

Let our Fun Place Team "slap a 'stach" on your pet! Dog, cat, snake, bird, horse... drop us a picture in the comments and we'll MO them up. You can copy the picture and use it to share the word about the importance of men's health!

Just a subtle reminder to "FALL BACK" on November 3rd. Even though most clocks will automatically change for you, if you jump in your car and it seems that you're running late, make sure you don't have to manually change it!

Also remember, your pets can't read a clock, so they will not automatically adjust to the time rolling back. Dinner time is run on the stomach clock, not the clock on the wall! Be patient and understanding when they are fussy about eating times.

What Octobooooer Monster Movie Makeover would be complete without a Funplace take on the 1990 Tim Burton part horror, part comedy, part romance "Edward ScissorHands"... done up Freddie-style!

Did you know...

- The houses used in the film were a real community in Florida, completely unchanged, except for their garish exterior paint.

- The entire story is meant to be seen through Edward's eyes, which is why the neighborhood looks so "fantastical."

- Vincent Price's role was intended to be larger, but the veteran actor was very ill with emphysema and Parkinson's disease, so his scenes were cut to a minimum. This was his last cinema film role.

10/30/2024

It's our final Monster Movie Makeover of Octobooooer... and what better way to leave the evil spirits of all these creatures behind then to feature Freddie in, what many consider, "the scariest movie of all times"... 1973"s horror classic The Exorcist!

Did you know...

When Regan projectile vomits at Father Karras, the vomit was intended to hit Jason Miller in the chest, but the plastic tubing misfired, hitting him in the face. His reaction of shock and disgust while wiping away the vomit is genuine

The studio wanted Marlon Brando for the role of Father Karras or Father Merrin

The Exorcist is the highest-grossing Warner Bros. film of all time when adjusted for inflation

Don't lose your head (at least not on purpose!)... we scared up a few jokes that will hopefully not make you laugh till you die! Don't hide your eyes... enjoy this special Howl-o-ween Freddie's Joke of the Week, if you dare!!!!!!!

Albert Einstein was long considered the smartest man in the world... but did you know he had an equally famous evil twin? Perhaps you've heard of him, too. Dr. Frank Einstein

Do you know what is the most popular internet search engine for monsters? Ghoul-gle

What do you call two witches who share an apartment and ride to work together? Broommates

10/29/2024

Only 2 more days remain out of Howl-o-ween 31 Days of Monster Movie Makeovers in OctoBOOOOOer! Today Freddie transforms into the evil, sadistic Leprechaun from the 1994 Horror/Comedy. The movie Leprechaun goes on a killing rampage in search of his beloved pot of gold. Every dog knows that a pot of bones and toys lie at the end of every rainbow in Fun Place Land!!

Did you know...

- The film.was not a huge box office success, but due to Jennifer Aniston's later success on television, many people rented this film, and it spawned a lengthy series of sequels

- The movie was Jennifer Aniston's feature film debut. One year later, she would become a household name as part of the ensemble cast of Friends (1994)

- For years after release, critics hated the movie and in recent years, this hasn't changed. The Chicago Tribune wrote that "It brought a new meaning to the term "bad"."

10/28/2024

Only a few days to go in the OctoBOOOOer 31 Monster Movie Makeovers! Today, Freddie joins "the other Freddie", Velma, and Daphne, and Scooby-Doo himself, on the Mystery Incorporated Team to hunt down freaky monsters all over the world! Sure, it will probably just be Old Man Jenkins or Farmer Brown in elaborate monster costumes... but just in case, having our Freddie along in place of Shaggy will give them the extra brain power they need.

Did you know...

The first live action Scooby-Doo film was originally set to have a much darker tone, essentially poking fun at the older cartoons, and was set for a PG-13 rating.

Scooby-Doo films reveal the real first names of Scooby and Shaggy as, respectively, Scoobert and Norville.

After filming was completed, Freddie Prinze Jr. had to shave his head, because the bleach ruined his hair.

We kick off the last week of our Monster Makeover in OctoBOOOer with Freddie morphing into the Creepshow 1982 version of the Crypt Keeper. By far this is the most jolting photo of horror we've presented so far. Did you know... Leslie Nielsen had a fart machine in his pocket during the shooting. He would let it go off during rehearsals, The world's largest collection of original Creepshow memorabilia belongs to the Creepshow museum, and is located on Facebook, and in Louisiana. Ted Danson, who played Harry Wentworth in "Something to Tide You Over" had his daughter wirh him on the set during the scene where his character returns from the dead, encased in rotting flesh and seaweed. He purposefully tried avoiding his young daughter so he wouldnt scare her. Finally, despite his best efforts, she walked up to him, looked at him and simply said, "Oh, hi, Dad." #freddiesfunplace #monstermoviemakeover #scarymovieseason #OCTOBOOOER #creepshow

The end of summer is right around the corner, and in some communities that means the biggest fireworks shows of the year... even larger than the 4th of July. What causes your pets to be so afraid of fireworks and what can you do to assure they don't end up lost and alone when the booms and flashing lights start? The attached video takes you through what to do. Thanks to the hard working, pet professionals at Freddie's Place.
