Happy 2012 to all our Fans at robertenglund.com
Here is a special recap of 2011 just for you all
We began 2011 in Marin with my family After the 50th annual New Year’s Day hike from Pantoll ranger station to
Stinson Beach, Robert, our new dog Maizy and I cruised down the California coast home to Laguna.
In February Robert wore leotards covered with green “mo-cap” dots to capture his motions for his role in the hit video
game Call of the Dead. Reportedly Sarah Michelle Geller looks better in tights than Michael Rooker or Danny Trejo.
We picked a route in North Laguna for the May 6 Gate & Garden Tour, which I again chaired. I finished writing the
tour brochure early so that in April when my mother came for a long visit I was free to spend plenty of time playing
Scrabble with her under the umbrella on the deck.
Robert popped up to LA to shoot The Sexy Dark Ages for Funny or Die.com.
Then in early June Robert traveled to London to shoot a small, key role in
Strippers Vs Werewolves, which should come out soon. He plays the jailed,
former wolf pack leader opposite the new alpha played by English character
actor Billy Murray.
I joined him on location in Holland Park and then we
moved to Mayfair for our birthdays.
We saw several terrific plays, including
the National Theatre production of "War Horse" and a faultless revival of Pinter’s
"Betrayal" with Kristin Scott Thomas. I went to Kew Gardens, which is really big!
Wear comfortable shoes, especially if it is raining.
August was a busy month for public appearances. Robert and I traveled to
Chicago, home for a week, then Toronto, Canada and Atlanta, GA on consecutive
weekends. In Atlanta we rented a car and drove to Sea Island for a relaxing post
Labor Day vacation at the empty Cloisters resort on the Atlantic.
While Robert worked in Gotenborg, Sweden I found a jogging trail down a canal
then over to a botanical garden. Loved the glass house full of exotic palm trees
and succulents.
On the way home we layed over a couple of days in London. Saw a weak,
miscast version of "The Tempest". Gorged ourselves on Indian food.
In October we traveled to Boston for the Rock & Shock convention and the premiere of
"Inkubus", departed from there to Spain where Robert attended red carpet premieres of
"I Want To Be A Soldier" in Madrid and Barcelona.
While we were in Spain we learned Robert
had been hired to poach gigantic crocodiles in Bulgaria for the SyFy channel.
We had a couple of pretty days in Sofia, including more Indian food and a visit to
the splendid archeology museum before heading an hour out of town to shoot at the
rustic Lake Iskar doubling for Maine.
"Lake Placid, Final Chapter" will be out on the
SyFy channel in about a year. First they have to CGI in the giant gators.
We were in
Bulgaria for Halloween so missed Robert’s guest star on Hawaii Five -0 but had friends
at the house greet all those anxious trick-or-treaters. Local suburban legend has it
Freddy himself answers the door every 50th kid. Not true.
Returning home in November, Jet lag helped us stay up to watch three episodes of Boardwalk Empire back to back.
Then we drove north for Thanksgiving with my family. We bounced up the coast stopping
in Carmel and Sausalito, then inland through Napa to Lake County. The view from the kitchen
of our host’s home over the valley of vineyards in patchwork
shades of red-orange-yellow was spectacular. Now I know why Robert was
so willing to wash all those Thanksgiving dishes.
We are back from Santa Fe where it snowed for Christmas.
We love you all, so 'Ciao for Niao' Kruegerites!

Happy Holidays to all of you! I want to thank you for your patience over the past month. The webmonster ran into some programming probs while in Europe. But we've sorted them out, we think. Without further ADO:
THE PUMPKIN CONTEST WINNERS:
Here are the winners, from third to first place:
3rd Place/Prize is a tie between Josh Meseck and Miranda Doerfler, who each created scary scenes
which wrapped around the sphere...Prizes to both!
2nd Place/Prize goes to Elizabeth Davis not
only for the creature with the big teeth and hands under the stairs but also the pumpkin carved with a crowd of zombies. So a Prize going to Elizabeth!
And the winner is...
1st Place/Prize Natalie
Tomaszewski - whose Nosferatu blew my mind. The imagery is sophisticated and the technique shows a mastery of the pumpkin arts.
HONORABLE MENTIONS:
Everyone knows I am a soft touch. I just have a hard time picking the best. So these are also pumkin artworks, costumes...etc that Robert and I really liked. Last year I sent little gifts off to the Honorable mentioned folks. If I can this year too, I will...but temper your expectations, things are CRAAZZZYYY around the Englund household...so the Honorable Mentions might have to accept just my personal thanks this year...we'll see. Here goes:
Krilova Ekaterina for those creepy paintings
Joshua
Dean for fun images and excellent use of negative space,
Dragonroar Ruthie for her
complex mis-en-scene
Amber Buttrum's anime mash-up.
Aelia Petro inadvertently with her pumpkin contest entry.
Sara Childers inadvertantly wins the Costume Contest...which we were'nt holding, but it's definately on for next year!!!!
and...Robert Kriess!
Thank you ALL for participating. Everyone who entered will get a signed postcard. But please send me your snail mail addresses through the website's contact form...
Just put CONTEST in the subject line.
Love and Happy Holidays to all you little monsters... Nancy

Hi Dreamerz:
Just a note about signed halloween cards for this year; My husband has just learned he will be headed to Bulgaria over the halloween period for work. We are not sure if we are going to be able to get any more signed Halloween Cards out on time. He is due back on November 11th.
Now I am trying to work out a solution with the webmonster to somehow bring a box of cards to us in Bulgaria. I'll have Rob sign a card he chooses and we'll try to get it out to you before halloween. Then when he returns to the US he'll sign the item you ordered anyway and send it off. If we can do this, we'll let everyone now here at robertenglund.com...
We are both very sorry if this causes any distress for you sweeties, but the life of an actor can be, if you paron the pun...a real nightmare.
I hope you all will understand,
Love and peace to all, Auntie Nancy...

Here is a bit of news for the AUGUST FLASH BACK WEEKEND 2011 from Nancy Englund:
"...Robert is going to appear at Flashback Weekend. Every show is
different. Generally Robert's autograph costs $30 on your item or on the
photos he provides. He will probably have his memoir HOLLYWOOD MONSTER
available for sale as well.
Generally you can take unposed pictures of
Robert for free. Flashback generally has a photographer for photo ops which
cost about $20. With that you receive a color 8x10 print of you and/or your
family with Robert taken by a professional photographer.
The Flashback
website can probably answer other questions. I do know that Robert is
generally on of the more popular guests and sometimes only VIP ticket
holders are guaranteed a signature. Others must wait in line and sometimes
Robert doesn't get to everyone.
Sundays are generally the quiet day at a
show and you will have much better luck getting the autographs you want on a
Sunday. Hope to see you all there...Nancy"
Jot this down on your calenders, Dreamerz!

from Sweden:
As expected while in Sweden i saw the inside of a convention center, people
dressed as Princess Leia, and a long line of folks waiting for their moment with
Robert. Very, very cold. I was contemplating going for a run but today's driving
snow put the kabosh on that.The sun sets at 3;30 here so if you've been saving
daylight, send it to Sweden, they can really use it. Tomorrow we head to London
for a week. Plays and other amusements are already lined up.
Lots of love, Nancy

from NYC Horrorfest 2010:
Took a splendid walk through the park yesterday. Dogs everywhere, squirrels with
rabies and trees changing. No Stay-pufft monster menacing the Dakota this day,
just a bunch of punters on the pond. I'm a sucker for buildings reflected in
water. And the final photo is our hotel from across the park.
We saw THE 39 STEPS off Broadway, all 104 parts played by 4 people. Hilarious.
We walked home from our play to discover snow in the gutters right around the
front of our hotel... Making movies, on location. Elaborate set dress for what
looked like a short scene of a guy answering a cell phone as he walked by
holiday shops. They were just wrapping up when we woke up this morning.
Tourists seem mystified by the lingering snow.
OK, the Statue of Liberty is just my "What? And give up show biz?" moment.
And the Eloise flag on the front of the Plaza is for my niece who was enchanted
by the portrait of Eloise in the lobby there.
Walking around on the west side and stumbled on this building with Egyptian
details, now a pediatrician's office. You don't need to look far to see
fascinating details. Makes me want to be a pigeon so i can see them up close.
Tonight Robert gets his Lifetime Achievement award from the NYC Horror Film
Fest, the real reason we are here. Oh boy, i get to go for a run in the Park
while Robert does an interview.
For now, xoxox N

from New York City, USA - 11-10-2010
"...Wow, saw a fantastic play tonight LA BETE starring David Hyde Pierce & Mark
Rylance.a comedy about language in rhyming couplets fighting iambic pentameter.
This after a lovely walk up 5th Ave to the Jewish Museum to see an interesting
show on Houdini.And a pilgrimage to Bemelman's Bar in the Carlyle. Dinner at
Sardi's. The little bar was closed so we couldn't gorge ourselves on pots of
cheese. Sat under drawings of Christopers Walken and Noth. I had to steal the
"actor's menu" that they brought over when they recognized Robert. xoxox Nancy...You can find a few photos in the E-Ville Photo album called NYC Horrorfest - 2010
