ThinkGeek's Crawling Zombie Torso Gelatin Mold is just what every elegant dinner party needs, especially if you make an aspic-and-baby-marshmallow gelatin salad with it.

Crawling Zombie Torso Gelatin Mold (Thanks, Alice!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    The mold reminds me of the plaster casts of the people who died at Pompeii.

    Not that I’m here to point out Cory’s predilection with all things grotesque, but this is hideous, absolutely disgusting. Am I a prude? Seriously, it’s some pretty f**ked up sh*t to be putting on your dinner table.

  • karenlyn

    That’s seriously awesome. I’ve seen the hand molds and the brain molds and the heart molds, but I’ve never seen this! You could take a cranberry sauce (or maybe a thin red jello??) and spread it around him. SO gory. Love it.

    Palilay,
    You may be a prude. Perhaps some might not like this on their table at a formal dinner party, or Sunday lunch, but there is a little thing called Halloween, during which people are encouraged to revel in the grotesque.

    Others might choose to live their lives according to an early Ministry song, and find this perfectly appropriate all year round. It’s not Martha Stewart, but not everyone likes that sort of thing.

    Personally, I’d look for a way to have raspberry preserve squirt out of the thing when one cuts into it.

    I’m sure plenty of you have seen this before, but: Brain Jelly Mold.

  • Daemon

    Screw jello, I want to make chocolate zombies.

  • misshallelujah

    Anyone else read the title and thought the article was about jello with undead mold growing on it?

  • erindipity

    *glurt*

  • Rotwang

    They should sell this as a set with the brain mold.
