With all the things going on this year I was barely able to get my house ready for Halloween. Here are the pictures of the porch. These were taken with out the theatrical lighting and fog machine so they look pretty boring. I did get the fog machine and the lighting working in time for the TOTs.
The pirate holding the necklace's and the apple is a pneumatic prop that I had to rush to finish in time. He is still not finished but it was the best I could do with the limited time I had. The pneumatic portion of the prop was fully functional and it was fun to see people startle when they walked up and the pirate jumped up.
Sadly we only got about 40 TOT's this year.

Those props are excellent - it looked really cool.
That's funny you say "sadly" at getting 40 TOTs - we were excited to get that many, lol! Some new blood has arrived in the neighborhood, so our totals grew. But it's always a good time no matter how many kiddies come by!Haunt to Live ... Live to Haunt

Thanks. You know, I am amazed at how much lighting can make a few props seem more dramatic. When I have all the lights on and the fog machine running the place looks pretty cool.
Thanks again, you all make me feel good about my sparse decorations.
