Thread: Favorite Haunt/Halloween Photo?

Zombie Des in front of my house :



After seeing that piccy in the light of the flash, I decided that I need more brown and black paint to make it more dirty and realistic. It looks totally awesome at night, in the dark; but with full flash you don't see all the heavy bloodstains and so on. I have other piccys of my haunt, but they just don't look right. I may have to break down and hire a professional photographer to film it properly.

Like the "How the heck do I take good pictures of my haunt" thread I've seen here before. I guess I just need to play around with my camera more and experiment.
Any haunted house looks lame in a picture with all the bright lights on.

It's the darkness and lighting that makes it cool. And it doesn't help that my house is located on one of the busiest streets in town, right under a bright street light (That I have secretly thought of shooting out Oct.31st. with a BB gun. )

Ya gotta have that true creepy:



But overall, my fave photo has to be this, and is totally non Halloween. I was at a Con in Gatlinburg, and this sweet 'lil guy would not leave until he gave me a hug, and cried and cried when his momma took him away from us. He had total love for the Empire. A true Bawwww...moment. His momma was fussin' at him, "C'mon, we gotta go..." and he looked up at me with wet eyes, and held up his 'lil arms to me, and I just had to.



Totally broke my heart... Even my wife teared up.... (she was the one that took that piccy.) These are the few moments that make life worthwhile. And why we do this. Halloween is no different.

The life of a Stormtrooper... to protect, and serve.....

Wonderful story Deslock, you are right thats why we do it!

2 years ago from my haunted yard

That is such a heartwarming story & pic, Deslock- the little guy went to sleep real happy that night, guaranteed!

For all the fun we grown ups have on Halloween night, it's the TOTs large & small that make worthwile all the fatigue/achy joints from climbing up & down ladders & stooping over to secure lights/props, all the last-minute rushing to get everything to work & look just so over all the years.

When the neighbor kids start eagerly asking during late summer, "Hey, you guys are doing the graveyard again this year, right?".....well, how can anyone say no?!?!

oh wow im drooling all over here looking at these pic! they are freaking awsome !!!!! keep em coming ..( dang wish i had neat pic to share)..

This is the first day i've been back on here since halloween as i'm starting to get the fever again, and this is REALLY helping me.

Makes me sad at the same time tho because i can't wait

this is what gives me that warm feeling inside about last halloween

the butcher shop last year

Zombygurl, I love that you took that Dr. standup that I also have, and did that scene. As a Chef, I love that !!! What a unique idea, and totally creative !
