Thread: halloween fetishes

Tweet

so i have certain halloween fetishes.

i love crashed witches. always trying to find ones i don't have. only want one of each. no duplicates here.
don't use them every year, only if they fit my theme, but just love them

i love halloween blow molds. i do use these every year. i never put out duplicates, more interesting this way.

i love bats. one can never have enough bats. these can be worked in every year. never duplicates except i have a bunch of currant treat bags i stuff and hang, they are to cute.

and lastly, i love door knockers. i try to buy at least one every year. another item not neccesarily used every year.

so does anyone else have an obssesion? i don't mean where you want stuff for your haunt. i mean something where it crys you want me

Candles.

Any way I can have candles, be it candlesticks, candle plates, candelabras or scones, I like candlelight. I am a purist, in that I think classic white candles have an older, more historic look. I avoid candles with seasonal aspects, i.e., red candles, black candles, bleeding candles, candles with raised designs on them.
I much prefer decorated holders.

Owls.

I love the sound of owls, be it the whinying whistle of a Screech Owl, the shriek of a Barn Owl or the classic booming hoot of a Great Horned Owl. I try to not only find music that incorporates owl calls, I play my own. I have owl figures and figurines, owl art on the walls and books on owls.

aw spats, cool. owls are cool. now i know how you were able to tell another forum member the ladies shrieking from the woods was probably an owl. years ago i was driving home late one night, and an owl swooped down and grabbed something in the road ahead of my car lights. since my lights hadn't quite hit it yet, i couldn't tell what it was. it was very fast. it's wing span was as wide as my car. it startled me, and spooked me, i didn't know they had such immense wing span. it was very cool really. as for candle holders, even though i don't have a fettish for them, there are some really wonderful ones out there. i'm not into candles like some either. but they are nice to finish off a candle holder. did you make one of those pvc flicker candles. those are nice and on my to do list.

LOL, I think I might be the lady with the shrieking woods unless there was another one I can't get enough witchy things or pumpkins. I'm not sure if I would call that a fetish... I agree with candles, you can never have enough plain classic candles.

Scarecrows. I don't care what kind. Cutesy or scary...love 'em all!

#1 - PUMPKINS!!!! And scarecrows (creepier the better...), bats, and FOG! I think candlelight goes without saying if you can possibly manage it!

Most honorable mention to people who dress up and/or stay in character all night - by far one of my favourite things in life

Jars... I think this has gone way beyond fetish to addiction. *LOL* I have them from huge to teeny tiny, very old to brand spanking new and full to empty. I love collecting them and filling them for my witch's den. I also have ones that stay out all year long, like my brain jar, and my vampire blood, complete with stake jar.

There must be rats! Even though I rarely see a Halloween rat that's up to my standards - I'm making most of my own this year - they simply must be present. The more, the better - and I have the outrageous collection of the little twitchy nosed props to prove it.

Hey! I resemble that remark! Very few of them even make it out into the display because I'm always concerned for their safety ... but buy them I do, in quantities that could choke an elephant. I have a similar quantity of candleholders, but at least the best ones of those generally make it out for the ToTs to admire.

no junit, lol, you be the one.
hey, i like where this is going. and as for bottles, i have been having a blast doing them up as wittches bottles. look in free boxes at garage sales, i find them there. i've picked up a few empty liquer bottles while out walking. everytime i empty one i'm a scheming. but for some reason i don't feel it's a fettish. i just do it, enjoy it, but don't crave it. lots of fun seeing everyones ideas.
oh blue frog, you dashed my spirits a little. you didn't buy the blowmold because it was a blowmold, you bought it because of your rat fettish. turn the light out and leave the dark side.

Reapers, it seems. In fact, I had to take a hard look at what I'm working with and realize, good grief man, enough with the reapers! So not one more will populate my display, no matter how differently it's cloaked. I have a balance of witches, reapers, pumpkins, skelly's, zombies and ghouls. But.....no more reapers!
