Dark Hall Mansion Reveals Latest Limited Edition:
“The Twilight Zone.â€
Los Angeles, CA, August 12, 2014
PRNewswire/ÂDark Hall Mansion, www.DarkHallMansion.com, is thrilled and honored to reveal its latest officially licensed limited edition project and release: “The Twilight Zone.â€
Dark Hall Mansion, under license by CBS Consumer Products, will release a 10-print “The Twilight Zone†series focused on key classic episodes of the legendary series that redefined television and set a creative bar by which decades of writers and filmmakers still measure themselves today. The importance of “The Twilight Zone†and its unparalleled creative output and unflinching mirror on the individual and society, particularly in an era when this was simply not done, cannot be underscored. Its impact on television, films, screenwriters, directors, authors, the comics industry, and creative artists within all fields still resonates and informs every genre to this day.
Dark Hall Mansion’s officially licensed 10-print limited edition subscription screenprint series goes on sale Tuesday, August 19th, and will feature 10 classic “The Twilight Zone†episodes rendered by leading contemporary artist, Tom Whalen. The 10-print “The Twilight Zone†editions will be offered as a subscription print series with an exclusive worldwide run of only 230 Standard edition subscriptions and 70 Variant edition subscriptions. Each
of the 10 individual prints will focus on one classic “The Twilight Zone†episode, each rendered in artist Tom Whalen’s inimitable and dynamic style, each measuring 18″ x 24″ and each fully screen printed. Prints will include classic episodes like “Eye of the Beholder,†“Nightmare at 20,000 Feet,†“Living Doll,†and “Nick of Time,†plus surprises along the way. The series will be fittingly lead off by an appropriately unsettling and slightly creepy “The Twilight Zone†episode that happens to be one of Tom’s (and his Dad’s) personal favorites, “Eye of the Beholder.â€
A disturbing classic, the episode’s final imagery is arresting and unforgettable even to contemporary audiences. Tom Whalen has created a piece for “Eye of the Beholder†that is deliberate and meticulously crafted, from its “The Twilight Zone†‘eye’ element, to its “Beholder†font, a font
that Tom noted specifically echoes a studied association with the word “beautiful,†the print’s composition is at once grounded in the reality of the episode while still subtly dissolving into an ethereal upper plane that fans will instantly recognize as Tom’s nod to the starry sky from “The Twilight Zone’s†famous opening credit sequences. The episode’s climactic scene of a patient’s terrified attempt at escaping her monstrous doctors is made all the more jarring by Tom’s expressionistic hallway and visual
suggestion that one false step and her feet will simply slide into that
very land of shadow and substance.
For worldwide fans of the “Twilight Zone,†this is a very limited release
as only 230 Standard edition subscription allocations will be available-worldwide-with an even more limited allocation of just 70 Variant subscriptions available worldwide. The Standard edition subscription-
which will include all 10 prints-will price at $450 and the Variant edition subscription-also including all 10 prints-and printed with striking metallic
ink highlights underscoring the print series’ vintage TV aesthetic will
price at $650. “The Twilight Zone†prints will be issued throughout
2014-15 per artist Tom Whalen’s scheduling, and know Tom’s very
next “The Twilight Zone†print will feature a gentle little girl and her
very unique and disturbing doll, “Talky Tina.â€
So what’s next?!!
Well, fans and collectors can also expect guest artist print reveals on additional classic “The Twilight Zone†episodes-outside of Tom Whalen’s subscription series releases-with each guest artist print being rendered in their respective artist’s own unique style and with each guest artist addressing “The Twilight Zone,†as either series, or, rendering a specific classic episode not already in Tom’s subscription series. The 10-print
“The Twilight Zone†subscription series will come with notable perks too! The first of which is: An automatic lock/reserve option to purchase any
“The Twilight Zone†print created by these guest artists! Standard edition subscription holders will be entitled to a reserve/lock corresponding to Standard edition guest artist prints, Variant subscription holders to a reserve/lock on Variant guest artist prints.
Shhh, little hint, did we mention Laurent Durieux will be doing a guest artist appearance for one of his own personal favorite “Twilight Zone†episodes?! Subscriptions holders will have first reserve/lock rights on his piece, just
as they will for all other guest artist appearance “The Twilight Zone†prints!
In the event that a particular guest artist requests their particular edition’s run size be somewhat smaller, in keeping with their respective collector base, and thus fewer than 300 prints total to go round for all subscription holders, then that guest artist’s total available print output will be offered by lotto to subscription series holders first, and should any subscription holder not receive a guest artist print, they will instead receive a FREE DHM print of our choosing from our past release archives. Yes, FREE! *Incidentally, this should really apply to only one artist we can think of that’s coming onto our guest artist releases as he tends to do a little smaller than 300 editions overall for his usual print releases. So only his, plus a special situation
with a group release, (see below), should come in under the usual 300 total.
All other guest artist releases should be offered in the same run size as
the subscription allocations: 230 Std + 70 Variant. Once again, with subscription holders having first reserve right/lock on those guest artist prints.
OK, how about another surprise: 4 very lucky Standard subscription buyers + 4 very lucky Variant subscription buyers (randomly chosen) will open their subscription tubes to find they instead now own a rare Tom Whalen foil “The Twilight Zone†subscription edition!! Thus a collector who finds a foil “Eye of the Beholder†in his tube can also expect their ENTIRE 10-print run to also be on foil! Note: There will also be 4 foil Standard subscriptions available for purchase (#’s 1-#4 available) for $1250 for the entire 10-print Standard foil run, or $1250 for the entire 10-print Variant foil run (also #1-#4 available). There are ONLY 4 Standard edition foil subscriptions available for purchase and ONLY 4 Variant edition foil subscriptions available for purchase, again, since Standard foil subscriptions (#’s 5-8) and Variant foil subscriptions (also #’s 5-8) will already be randomly inserted in tubes as a surprise to those lucky subscription buyers.
Another subscription perk, and it’s a big one: ALL Standard and Variant subscription series buyers will be entitled to an automatic lock/reserve on the first DHM Seminal Film Series release of 2014, also by Tom Whalen, which will be for a 24″ x 36,†fully licensed, major SCI-FI Hollywood studio classic! And we do mean a CLASSIC!! Pricing on Tom’s very first DHM Seminal Film Series release ever will be $65 for the Standard edition and $100 for the Variant edition, plus shipping. So purchasing either a Standard or Variant “The Twilight Zone†subscription series will also assure its buyer a lock on Tom’s Seminal Film Series piece as well. BTW, with Tom having completed final art and our having already received studio approval for his piece, we can tell you this-it is simply EXCEPTIONAL!
One more surprise for our collectors: We are welcoming the “Poster Posse†artists to join DHM to participate in Dark Hall Mansion’s “The Twilight Zone†project as well! “Poster Posse’s†loose confederation of gifted artists originates from the quite excellent, Blurppy.com blog, and will be creating prints for one of our “The Twilight Zone†guest artist spots down the line.
So know 10 different “Poster Posse†artists will each interpret the same very special, quite classic, “The Twilight Zone†episode. Their episode’s work will be formally licensed, printed, and sold by DHM in extremely limited runs as each of these 10 artists will do only 23 Standard editions
+ 7 Variant editions each, and together this entire select DHM “Poster
Posse†edition for that one key “The Twilight Zone†episode-totaling a combined 230 Std + 70 Variants-will be randomly offered to subscription series owners first, just as with all guest artist releases.
Again, this is IN ADDITION to expecting other notable guest artists
popping up throughout the overall “The Twilight Zone†subscription series
to share their own personal interpretations on other classic “The Twilight Zone†episodes.
Both the Standard and Variant edition Tom Whalen “Eye of the Beholder†pieces are attached, and may also be viewed directly on Dark Hall Mansion’s Facebook page here:

or on DHM’s Blog here:

All “The Twilight Zone†limited edition subscription series go on sale Tuesday, August 19th, 2014 on Dark Hall Mansion’s dedicated store
page here:
http://www.darkhallmansionstore.com/
at a random time between 9:30 AM PST and 12 PM PST.
*In fairness to all collectors wishing to purchase the official 10-print Tom Whalen “The Twilight Zone†subscription to enjoy or gift, not merely ‘flip’
for resale: ALL SALES ARE FINAL. “The Twilight Zone†subscription is a purchase of 10 officially licensed Standard or Variant limited edition prints sold only as a 10-print series plus shipping. A purchase of either a $450 (Standard subscription) or $650 (Variant subscription) requires a flat fee shipping of $15, per print, shipped anywhere in the US, or $25, per print, shipped anywhere-worldwide. The combined shipping total for all 10 prints must accompany each “The Twilight Zone†subscription at the time of purchase. Thus $150 covers the complete shipping total for all 10 Tom Whalen Standard subscription prints shipped anywhere in the US, or
$250 covers the complete shipping total for all 10 Tom Whalen Variant subscription prints shipped anywhere worldwide. The appropriate respective total will be added to your subscription at the time of purchase. Any buyer purchasing both a Standard and Variant subscription series will only be charged ONE domestic shipping total ($150) or ONE int’l shipping total ($250) as we can combine your prints each time we post out your parcels. California buyers will be charged 7.5% tax; sorry, nothing we can do about that as we too are in CA.
So once a subscription is purchased the buyer may opt to do nothing else other than simply receive each of their 10 Tom Whalen “The Twilight Zone†episode prints as they release periodically, receiving a tracking number
via email each time their piece ships out to them. And YES(!!) we will ABSOLUTELY have overage on hand for every single print issued throughout the series in case any collector’s tube gets dinged in postal transit so we can IMMEDIATELY replace your print with NO delay and
NO complication whatsoever!! Indeed, the “Eye of the Beholder†prints
are already printed and only awaiting to ship out, and again, “Beholder’s†overage is also at the ready. Tom’s next “The Twilight Zone†piece will follow, but first, subscription buyers will finally see, and have an option
to purchase, his fantastic 24″ x 36″ DHM Seminal Film Series piece!
**Subscription series prints will only be shipped to the original buyer of the Standard or Variant “The Twilight Zone†subscriptions using their registered Paypal address of record-only! There will be NO partial refunds or cancellations of any purchased subscription anywhere along the way and the prints will be issued and shipped regularly throughout the subscription’s run period of 2014-15 in accordance with artist Tom Whalen’s schedule.
***Note: “The Twilight Zone†guest artist prints will vary in price in accord, and with deference to, the respective guest artist’s input and collector base, however most will usually price at $65 for the Std or $100 for the Variant
per our usual range, with subscription series holders having the reserve option/right, but NOT obligation, to purchase those additional guest artist prints FIRST. Subscription series holders will be notified by email each time a guest artist print will be released along with its issuance price and they will have the right to purchase that guest artist print anytime up to 3 days prior the print’s general release to the public. Again: Subscription series holders wishing to exercise their lock/reserve right MUST purchase their guest artist print NO LATER THAN 3 DAYS PRIOR the general release date if interested or it will be assumed they are passing on that particular guest artist’s release so that print can be offered publicly to other interested collectors. We will send out each new “The Twilight Zone†guest artist print notification to each subscription series owner one week prior each release, as well as post each guest artist print image on our DHM Facebook page, DHM site, and tweet it (so please follow us), all to allow ample time for subscription holders to review each new guest artist piece and make their decision accordingly. Once more: It is understood that any “The Twilight Zone†guest artist piece not purchased by a subscription series holder 3 days prior to its general release date will be interpreted as a pass and the guest artist print made available to the general public.
To state the obvious, these “The Twilight Zone†guest artist prints are special surprise releases-and outside the 10-print Standard and Variant
Tom Whalen subscriptions-so if you’ve already purchased your “The Twilight Zone†subscription and just want your Tom Whalen “The Twilight Zone†prints sent to you-then you need do NOTHING! Just grab a remote, turn on a classic “The Twilight Zone†episode, enjoy brilliance, and know something extremely special’s headed your way, something that few
people worldwide will even have access to!
