From the beginning the Skull Club was made for scary fun. Two brothers and their friends, with an average age of 6, came up with a club that celebrated the frightening. Isn’t it a strange thing that many people enjoy being frightened as long as it is under controlled conditions: horror stories, spooky movies and TV, creepy sounds and video games. Some artifacts created for the club remained in the possession of one of the members throughout his life. Green Skull, that is myself, owned the human plastic skull model named Skully, that is the Skull Club original mascot, that sat on the Secret Book. Imagine a skull seated on a scary old book looking out at you. People were curious about it. Throughout my life, many close friends that came along were initiated into the club because of the existence of those artifacts. Today the club continues and I regard the Skull Club as an ongoing series of conceptual-performance works of art and/or experimental theater. Members use it as an excuse to party. The club still operates to create scary fun.

The Secret Book of the Skull Club, Volume 1 is a collection of early drawings, journals, and lore from the Skull Club’s formative years. Created in childhood and preserved as an art-object, the book captures the strange sincerity of youthful imagination colliding with horror imagery, secrecy, and ritual play.
