How to Make Apple Shrunken Heads


Does anyone remember Vincent Price’s shrunken head kits from back in the '70s? Complete with sculpting tools, templates, twine for hanging your creepy creations from your belt or backpack, and an amazing drying chamber that could be attached to any household lamp, you could create your own horrifying shrunken heads from ordinary apples!
I couldn’t resist the opportunity to craft my own horrifying heads just like the master of horror and my delight with the medium continues to this day. The amazing drying chamber wasn’t all that amazing and the accessories were all but pointless, but man those wrinkly little faces were cool.
Thank you HGTV and Mick Telkamp.
