Any monsters around?



Nope, there are no monsters lurking in the corridors of our self-storage facility… you know how we like to keep it clean and bright…

But this facility in America might have a few – because the building is the former design studio of legendary animatronics and special make-up effects artist Rick Baker in California, who retired last year. He’s the guy who designed and built iconic monsters for movies such as Gremlins and Men in Black.


He also made puppets, models, moulds and suits for dozens of other films such as Harry and the Hendersons, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Planet of the Apes, Batman Forever, Coming to America, and The Nutty Professor!
