I didn't actually take any pictures this year (again...) but I've been taking stills from the 2+ hours of HD video I shot.
Here's the first batch...I'll be getting the video up in a couple of weeks

*I should add that the AWESOME blue zombie in the wheelbarrow was made by everybody's favorite Haunted Tiki Islander, Devils Chariot

Great stuff. I like it. I like it a lot.

WOW! WOW! WOW!!! That is AMAZING!!!!!!

Ive been waiting for you to post your haunt. It looks fabulous. Did you get your Frankenstein, and zombie animatronics finished for Halloween, or were they just static? Very creepy stuff, cant wait for the video. 2 weeks!

p.s. What HD camera did you use? Those stills look great coming from a video. Im hoping to get one for Christmas.

Thanks guys!

Skid,
All the animatronics were functional, though I was wrapping up the programming on Halloween morning (but the piano player only had one hand moving...something wrong with the servo wiring). I still have them set up in my garage so I can properly film them singing and stuff (too much going on on H'ween...I even got most of these shots the next day!)
Ehh...it might be more than 2 weeks before I finish, but hopefully before December

I have a Canon XH-A1...it's awesome. I hear the most bang for your buck is in Canon's HV-20/30/40 series, if you're looking to spend a little less

Awsome stuff !!My favorite is the grave digger pushing the wheel barrel greaT!
