Well we’ve just concluded our Halloween here in Australia and it was a huge success. 250+ children! A couple of our local newspapers were spotted in the area taking photos and we got lots of comments on our homemade props. A big thanks to all on here who have inspired me to make props this year – just love this place to bits!

The homes also attach a balloon to their letterbox or similar to let the children know they’re taking part. Just love this time of year and each year I manage to convert a few more.

Yep, Knox is a bit of a hike from here. I think the letter really helps because people are very hesitant to embrace Halloween in Australia. The streets are buzzing with children on the night and each year it grows by about 30%. Originally Posted by lyrical

If it should make the papers I'll be sure to let you know.
And let me also say that DIY Halloween props are addictive and so is this forum and if you're anything like me, it will be a 12 month a year obsession.
