Background

In the late 70s and throughout the 80s, most of the products were sculpted by founder Ed Edmunds. Being heavily into sci-fi as a child, much of the masks produced at the time were of aliens and other creatures of the sci-fi genre. In 1981, Marsha Taub joined the team and became co-owner of Distortions.[1]

The company has and still makes props and animatronics for professional haunted houses.

Making Monsters

In 2011, the Travel Channel began a series called Making Monsters, which documented the process of making Halloween props and animatronics inside the Distortions Colorado warehouse. The channel stopped producing episodes in 2013, but continues to rerun the episodes in the days before Halloween.
