My recently celebrated his birthday and I wanted to get him something really cool and unique. Without going into to much detail, my friend has a healthy fascination with Chathulu and HP Lovecraft (although he refuses to read them due to fear that it will not live up to his expectations). This love of the cult is what spawned this idea of mine, this unique gift that I’ve been working on for a few weeks now.
Pictured below is the Nerf Maverick dart gun that I modified to be Themis, the demon hunter pistol. This wonderfully crafted weapon features a metal mounted cross for fighting off demons, a dangling witches pendulum for locating and warding off creatures, various protection symbols and silver bullets. The pictures were taken in a cemetery at night (yes, I was freaked out the entire time cause I was by myself the whole time). Hope you enjoy!
That’s pretty cool man. You did a lot of detailed work on putting that together, I’m sure he was really stoked to get that.

He thought it was really awesome.
One of the best parts was how we presented it to him. In a nut shell, we took him out to a park after dark and we walked around the path as I told him a wild story of how I summoned a spirit to help me with his present. While I was doing this, Diane dressed up in a cowboy hat, white mask and a long duster jacket and waited for us to walk by. As we approached her, she put the gun on the ground and then walked by us with out any sound or acknowledgement.
As my friend put it, “It was so dark I couldn’t see your legs and you didn’t respond to me at all. I honestly thought I might be looking at a ghost.”
