I've been delving into Bill Warren's book The Evil Dead Companion over the last couple days and i've learned a lot of interesting facts about the trilogy and i've decided to turn those facts into another little game. So below you will find five Evil Dead related stories ; four are fact and only one is fiction. Your job is to figure out which one has been made up by yours truly. There's no prize this go around but if you want a free prize, you still have through this Friday to enter my Kevin Smith contest! Being that there's no prize to be won here, I kindly ask you to not try and look up these facts on Google. It's only for fun, so lets see who can really pick out the fake without cheating! Good luck!
1. Among the many titles that were considered for the original film, before Evil Dead was chosen, was 'These Bitches Are Witches'.
2. Coinciding with its initial release, a line of 100 limited edition Army of Darkness posters were printed up with a small vial of Bruce Campbell's blood mixed in with the red ink.
3. Freddy Krueger's famous razor glove can be seen hanging on the wall in the work shed in Evil Dead 2.
4. Richard Domeier, who played Ed in Evil Dead 2, is now a host on QVC.
5. The cabin that Evil Dead was filmed in was believed to be haunted/cursed, with many deaths and strange phenomena linked to it. The cabin has since mysteriously burnt to the ground.

Horror related Mike Walker game?? heh.. I am going to guess, 3.
I am guessing number 2, where would they have they budget for that?
I've no idea what the answer is BUT
I'm not sure if you know this, the original title of "Army of Darkness" was "The Medieval Dead"...
How cool is that?!
My guess has to be number 4.
Number 2. It wasn't the Army of Darkness poster, it was the AOD comic whose initial printing went out with a little of Campbell's blood mixed in.
Oh my, this is hard. I think #2 is fake.
Bjornabo - Believe it or not, number 4 is true! Check out a post I did on that a while ago :
Six Degrees of Seperation - Evil Dead & QVC
Zac - I kinda wish they had gone with that as the title! Very cool.
EyeLoveMetal - Freddy's glove can be seen hanging above the shed door in Evil Dead 2!
Jason, Bobby, and Soap Magic - Congrats, you all got it right! Number 2 is the fake! Bobby, is that true? If so, that'd be quite the coincidence considering I didn't even know anything about that! I just remember some of Tobin Bell's blood was put into the red ink on a limited run of Saw 3 posters and that's where I got the idea from.
I'm call shenanigans on the guy claiming there was Campbell's blood in an AoD comic.
Couldn't find anything about it on the internet. Bobby, where are you?!
