The Backstory

From the shadows of Iowa folklore comes the Van Meter Monster Tee. First reported in 1903, this winged creature with a blinding spotlight eye terrorized the small town of Van Meter for several nights before vanishing back into legend. Part cryptid, part cautionary tale, the Van Meter Monster has haunted the Midwest imagination for over a century. Printed bold on a soft, durable tee, this design celebrates one of the region’s most iconic—and unnerving—paranormal stories.

How It Wears

We print dead things…
on Bella + Canvas tees.

They’ve got that soft vintage feel with a modern fit—less boxy than your old 90s beefy tees. If you're used to those heavier cotton classics, you might want to size up for extra room to haunt.

Got sizing questions? Hit us up. We’re happy to help you cover yr bones the right way.

Every SleepOver design comes from me, Danny West. I chase down a haunted location, a local cryptid, a movie trapped in a well worn VHS, then I design it...human design, right here in Lawrence, Kansas.
