He has returned to the Universe, a shining star in her heavens.

He was my angel, my husband, my best friend and always will be.

He adored his family, his friends, and his fans.

This came as a shock to all of us.

She concluded by saying, Goodnight, my love.

We will find each other again, next time.

But three weeks out from shooting, I got a call from Sid Haig.

Im like, holy shit, this is a serious business.

So I went to see him, and he had changed drastically from the last time I saw him.

Because Sid, hes big and burly, and now hes tiny as a skeleton.

So I was like, oh man.

I kind of realized, yeah, hes in rough shape.

Haig was beloved in the horror community and a familiar presence on the festival and convention circuit.

He was 80 years old.

The Fireflies lost their patriarch.

RIP to my great good friend Sid Haig.

The road will seem empty without you.

Condolences to the family.

From Spider Baby to Captain Spaulding he created a strong iconic presence in all his roles.

In person he was warm and kind and all will remember how devoted he was to his fans.

I knew him for many years and he was one of my favs!

I will really miss him.

Goodbye Sid Haig.

A great mate to hang with.

One of a kind.

He loved the horror family as much as horror loved him.
