It was a collaboration with Mike Hill to make me look absolutely terrifying. It’s really hard to cast someone upside-down, so that was a whole adventure on its own.īut yeah, they cast me, put me in plaster. I had to be posed in a way that the Jangly Man would be walking. Because the Jangly Man has such a unique method of locomotion, it’s not just, “Stand still and be covered in plaster.” It’s, “Raise your arms and hold them up,” because if we had sculpted it with my arms down, then when I lifted my arms up during shooting, the suit would rip. They had to lifecast me - cast my entire body to sculpt the Jangly Man’s physique. The fact that they were making a movie about it, and that I was able to take a part in it, is just a dream come true. In my case, they were always checked out at the library they were dog eared, the pages and spine were loose, because we loved these stories so much. I think we all grew up with them they were our childhood books. “How would you like to be our Jangly Man?” I adore Guillermo del Toro, so I said, “Of course!”Īnd I love the books so much. So, I think when they were making this monster they had me in mind. I had a small appearance as a Mongrel vampire for the show. I worked on a Guillermo project before, you might have heard of the TV show The Strain. I get to say it! I don’t know if they kept it, modified it, or found someone else who could say it better though. One is “Aaron Kelly’s Bones” another is “What Do You Come For?”, where the skeleton falls down the chimney and dances around the room and of course, “Me Tie Doughty Walker”. I believe is a compilation of multiple stories.
