Currently most of my lighting is driven by low voltage power or by 110 AC. However I was wondering if anyone has tried using mostly solar lights. I see advantages and disadvantages of each but I wanted to start a discussion. Powering the lights with Low voltage or AC requires many more wires...
Happened to notice that Harbor Freight (online and instore) has a big sale going on. Website has a 25% off one item Super Coupon, and another 20% off one item Coupon. Both say 1 coupon per customer per day however, so Sat and Sun. Not sure if stores will be open Easter Sunday so call first...
I was looking for something to cast a large dinosaur image on our 2-story house's side wall when we set up for our dino haunt and can't wait to try out. It's 15W and hoping it will be bright enough to do what I want and still be creepy lighting. Just ordered it from Amazon. It's a set of...
Yep, already.

I decided to post a thread of my progress pictures this year! I had so much fun last year with my 2018 "Voodoo Island Hulaween" theme, but I did not post pictures as I went along here on HF. I did post some pictures and lots of video on Facebook and here is the link to that public album:

Did anybody pick up one of these animated skeletons who drinks from a glass of wine in the BigLots after Halloween sale? If so I am very interested in purchasing one. Thanks!
I have lots of Halloween items for sell . Each year we have bought made and created many Halloween items. We are no longer able to set things up as we would like, because of health reasons we have many props although we have already gotten rid of many items. If interested please contact me. We...

The egg is a old fashioned 'paper mâché over a big...

Would you pay $100 for a full bodied female mannequin? An extremely old and established high end ladies clothing boutique is closing due to retirement. 4 generations have owned and managed it and they are finally done. I was in today looking around and asked about the mannequins, which they...
Hi,
Robin from Sweden here.
A teachers that just has built my very first Haunted House.
Writing a DIY thread about it with lots of pictures and movies that will be up any minute =)
After a long hiatus, I finally got to participate in our neighborhood's TOT!
This year I went with more of a Harvest theme with our decorations. Some corn stalks, a small pumpkin patch, and retro-inspired decorations. Amazingly nothing was stolen or vandalized, which was the cause for the...
Hello Everyone. I'm now in my 4th year of decking out my yard with various props to scare and delight.
Mostly I enjoy making props myself with inspiration and guidance from many in this forum. I sometimes repurpose the commercial props sold
from the Halloween popups, picking them up after...
I've been throwing a Halloween party the last few years, and I want to up my game. I have a decent amount of decor, but I want to find a way to make the atmosphere a bit spookier, put people on edge a bit. I tend to stick with fairly traditional Halloween elements - lots of skeletons, bats...
I have another “if you’re in the local area” items for sale that I need to get rid of. Bought from Big Lots last year but never even took it out of the box, so it’s still brand new. Retails for $150, asking $100. Unable to ship, it would just cost too much and wouldn’t be worth it even if...
