About this Event

This event is co-produced by MAAM and Associate Professor of Illustration and Program Area Chair Robert Maloney with the Illustration Department.

Doctor Gasp 

doctorgasp.com | @danblakesleemusic

Beneath the mask is New England folk musician Dan Blakeslee with his unique bag of all original songs of Halloween oozing with vampires and ghastly creeps. Blakeslee's songs are a throwback to old-time cult horror themes, giving nods to Bobby Pickett (Monster Mash), Alfred Hitchcock, John Zacherle and the cavernous voice of Paul Frees. Each October the unexpected spectacle Doctor Gasp rises from the shadows delivering an earful of eerie for the young, old and immortal!


Robert Maloney 

Robert Maloney is a Boston-area native who creates multimedia pieces influenced by the many layers of the urban landscape. His recent work focuses on the connections between the temporary materials of our man-made structures and how these fragile forms relate to the erosion of our memories over the course of time.
