Sorry in advance for the long post, but you asked for it. 😁 So here's how I chose to build my version...

    I've been making props for the ghost train project but took the easy way out for another section of yard, where I'm going to project videos in a graveyard. I bought three of the Atmosfx 3D inflatable forms along with the Boo Crew video package. I've begun building a small crypt to hide the...

    Hey all. Last year I introduced two plastic mannequins in the yard as witches. I'll add a picture below. I really struggled to get the mannequins to stand up to strong winds. In the Chicago area we can get some pretty bad wind storms (40+ mph) in October making it really challenging to keep...

    Hey guys, I have 5 large tombstones that I put in the front yard every year. Prior to now, I wasn't very worried as the grass was mostly weeds.

    We just watched a really good new flick called "Scary Stories To Tell In the Dark". It's a classic teenagers getting themselves in trouble during Halloween kind of "horror" flick.

  10. Headless Horseman 2015

    I had just moved across country and finally had a yard! This was my first big Halloween decorating! Why not celebrate it by making a giant headless horseman?
