On Thursday October 11th, 2018, Lisa and I were invited to Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor for a behind the scenes look at the makeup process that brings Dark Harbor to life.

Antonia Carlotta is the great, great niece of Carl Laemmle, the founder of Universal Studios. On Friday June 23rd, 2017 Hatbox Photography was fortunate enough to bring a life long dream of hers to life when she was turned into the Bride of Frankenstein in the first of what will become a multi-part series. Down the road there will be other parts where Antonia is transformed into Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, the Mummy along with other classic horror film icons.
