What’s Inside This Extreme Edition?
With all this talk about the Ladies of the Evil Dead : Extreme Edition, it’s time to get down to the nitty-gritty details as to what you can expect on November 27. Keep reading to find out just a few of the things that went into making this project so unique…
WHAT MAKES THIS SO EXTREME?
LIMITED TO ONLY 500 SHIRTS
This is the only time we’re releasing this shirt, period. Once it is gone, it is gone for good and we will NEVER print this design again. And while 500 shirts may sound like alot, check this out… The last time we did a special edition like this, we sold over 400 shirts in less than 13 hours. And since then, literally hundreds more people have subscribed to our newsletter. So keep in mind, only 500 will be released…ever.

EXCLUSIVE 10 COLOR EYE-POPPING DESIGN
Yes, I said 10 colors. To put that in perspective, we typically use 4-5 colors on any of our regular designs. This design has MORE THAN DOUBLE that… We start out by bleaching the black ink out of the shirt to provide a clean, fresh surface to print on. Then, one by one, each color goes down and is heat cured into the fabric of the shirt. The result? A high-end screenprinted design that is super vibrant, silky smooth, and long lasting. And who better to showcase these terrible three than the amazing Jeff Zornow himself! Known for such legendary Fright-Rags designs such as Horror of Dracula, Zombie VS Shark, Party Time and more, he pulled out all the stops on this one. Some witnesses even say that he became a man possessed while concocting this creepy composition, and it shows. These ladies have never looked so disgustingly beautiful…

11×17 SIGNED AND NUMBERED COLLECTIBLE POSTER
Included with each t-shirt will be an 11×17 full color poster of the t-shirt design, printed on 100# glossy coverstock. But if that wasn’t enough, each poster will be SIGNED AND NUMBERED BY EACH OF THE LADIES OF THE EVIL DEAD! That’s right…all three autographs will be on your poster! So not only can you show off the design on your shirt, but you’ll also have this collector’s edition poster to hang on your wall too!

KEEPSAKE TRAP DOOR COLLECTOR’S BOX
Just like our fateful gang found the tape recorder in the basement of the old cabin, so too will you find your t-shirt. Each t-shirt will get it’s VERY OWN CUSTOM COLLECTOR’S BOX, which is designed to look like the very same trapdoor entrance…but beware, Ellen may just be waiting to grab your shirt before you do! And unlike earlier editions, each box will be protected inside a separate shipping box. This way, it will not get damaged or dinged on it’s way to you in the mail. And yes, each shirt comes with a box…order two shirts, get two boxes.

ONE FINAL PIECE OF THE PUZZLE…..
There is something else that makes this Extreme Edition live up to its name. Something so crazy that if I utter even a word, the undead may hear me and come for my very soul. My only hope is to fend them off long enough to let you in on my little secret…soon.

WORTH OVER $100
There you have it…just a taste at what we are packing this thing with. As I was putting all of these ideas together, I realized that we have managed to cram over $100 of value into this edition. And while I haven’t yet decided what the final price will be, I can tell you one thing…as a newsletter member, you will want to be first in line on Friday, November 27.
KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR EMAIL
I will be sending you more important information next week about this launch, and why you will want to be getting yours as soon as it is available.
Until then, be sure to post your questions/thoughts/comments below!

This is awesome, can’t wait! I’ll have to use my iPhone to buy it probably if I can, cuz I gotta take my car up to get my heat fixed that day, damn and Left 4 Dead 2 comes out that day too! Grr I’ll be so broke
Can’t Wait!
I know I’ll buy it… don’t even need to know how it looks like, I’ll just buy it, plain and simple!
To much build up. Wishing you good luck.
All good, looking forward to it – why not a silkscreen poster again like NOTLD?
I have to admit that I wasn’t too excited about this release before, but after reading about all of the effort that is going into it, plus the bonus goodies I think I’m hooked.
That IS AMAZING, I’m ready to snag 2 most likely. Best gift ever for the holidays.
This shirt has already blown my mind. I was telling Ben I almost wish I didn’t work for Fright Rags so I could buy it and get it in the mail and be blown away….and you will be blown away. I was smiling bigger than I have ever smiled before looking at all the details of this package. Ben seriously has taken out all the stops to give you an amazing experience….have fun!
very intrigued !
Over $100 of value? That makes me a little nervous. All the extras sound cool and everything, but I still want the shirt to be affordable. Here’s hoping it will be…
@Jimm – Totally understandable, and I’ve been taking just that into consideration the entire time I have been putting this together. Don’t worry, as a newsletter subscriber, you will be getting a special price
@Earl – The reason the poster is not screenprinted is for reasons mentioned above. I wanted a solution that was high-quality, but not ridiculously overpriced. A 10 color screenprinted poster would have jacked up the cost quite a bit. However, the full color offset glossy print is amazing and a bit more reasonable.
YAY! Can’t wait to see the undead ladies!
Ben, you’re killing me man! Loving the build up!
This is going to be the greatest shirt to ever exist. EVER. When I put it on, I fully expect to become possessed and begin rotting into demonically-fuelled, bloodily-coated glee!
THE LADIES ARE ALWAYS FIRST, people. Bwahahahaha!
Ben you rock – can’t wait to see this shirt
I live in switzeralnad and I already bought some t-shirt from Fright-rags but I dont know if the speacial t-shirt box will resist the trip from USA to Europe?
Let me just say: can’t wait! Things like these keep me a faithful customer of FR.
@ Mauro – No worries. We’ve got a heavy duty box to ship the collector’s boxes in. They will all be safe and sound…
Sounds groovy!
sounds good. I look forward to seeing everything!
This sounds incredible, Im so f’ing stoked. Another great fright-rags exclusive to add to my collection.
Can’t wait to get this as a gift for my son for Christmas!
BOYOHBOYOHBOY, can’t wait, hope the package isn’t to heavy or the shipping to the netherlands will be huge, and all i gotta do now is wory about the time difference and ordering in time, when will the shirt be ready to buy CET time, you figured it out with the NOTLD shirt so please inform me, so i know when to be at home or set mij alarmclock.
Thank you for making such an effort, all my mates think your shirts are amazing.
Sounds awesome, but I’m worried I’ll miss out, I always do my christmas shopping on Black Friday. Too bad you can’t make a pre-order or something.
I get excited about anything involving Dead Ladies!! Wait, that didn’t sound right.
I just keep wishing for more Jason exclusive editions for email members only. Bummer you haven’t had any in a while.
Finally; Horror Hype that will pay off– unlike Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity!
My oh my. I just might need to own this. I too hope that it is at ana afforable price however I understand that something like this can’t just be priced at what the other shirts are. Curse your time zone being ahead of mine.
I ordered my first bunch of t shirts from the UK recently and have to admit they kick some serious ass. Am definitely gonna ordering this item. Keep up the great work!
I’ve got so much respect for you guys. Its so much more than just another movie merch shirt (not just this one, but all your shirts) its easy to see your passionate about what you do.
BUT HEAR THIS!
if i dont get one…You will die! Like the others before you, one by one, we will take you…
I won’t even do my grocery shopping that day. I’ll come right home from work and order mine. Than I can do my shopping.
Print them on American Apparel shirts. I am sick of wide-body shirts that turn into squares after I wash them!
AAAAHHHHHHH….please be within my budget! I MUST OWN THIS! Autographs…ahhhhh….the only thing that could make this better is a keepsake from the cabin or Bruce’s autograph thrown in (which I realize would be asking a bit too much). Truly amazing!
Holy crap this is amazing!! i want to get one for sure but i want to make sure that i get one and the 500 limited thing makes me a little nervous! i’m guessing then that the shirt will also be released at a certain time of day also?
Well, you’ve got my money.
will we be able to start ordering this at 12am on black friday or will the e-mail come later in the morning?
My wallet already hates me. I know this is going to be expensive. Are we going to see the shirt before the sale day? I could use a little time to think it over when these shirts are so expensive.
Hmmm Cloak and Dagger intrigue…..
You get what you pay for, and I personally am stoked about the idea. I am dissapointed about the limited number, as I am not the only horror fan in my family, and x-mas is coming. oh well.
i really hope this time they won’t be printed again after they’ve sold out.
i was a bit disappointed when the same thing was said about the F13 Jason shirts, and rushed to get them, only to see they were printed again.
But…I love the evil dead ladies, so…i
@ Michael – I completely understand where you are coming from. Another customer wrote me with a similar concern and I’d like to post my response to him so you can read it:
Thanks for writing and I completely understand where you are coming from. Re-running the F13 shirts was a mistake. In all honesty, we had way too many extras to just get rid of, which is why I did it. We planned on just a couple extras (for exchanges if need be), but there was a mis-communication at our printer’s shop and they did way more than we ordered. So we decided to re-release them… But it went against what I originally said, and that cannot be taken back. In hindsight, I regret that decision and have vowed never to do that again.
I appreciate you bringing that up to me, and I don’t blame you for not believing the “limited” status. I only wanted to let you know where I was coming from and that I am making sure this doesn’t happen again…no matter what, or how many people want it.
I hope that helps clear things up. I thought allowing people to purchase the extras was a good idea at the time as it helped us free up space as well as give those who didn’t have a chance the first time to get them. However, it devalues the fact that it was a limited release the first time around. I understand that now and will not be making the same mistake again.
I think it’s funny that I am looking forward to Friday’s unveiling of the “nitty gritty details”, but I am totally excited. I mean, your products are great, but what I just read about the “ladies of the evil dead; extreme edition” was fantastic & I can’t wait to see if I can afford it.
Perfect marketing, nice job.
