This couple won favorite costume...

Funniest costume - They came in singing and had everyone roaring!

Folks at the party...

our party theme was NMBC. I put this tableau together to go in our family room...

I made this Oogie Boogie for photo ops...

I made a toe-pincher sleigh pulled by my skeleton horse...

Jack and his Christmas Tree. I wish I had a pic of the base - it was surrounded by a score of "evil" christmas presents - Deady Bear, scary Jack-In-The-Box, evil doll, etc...

The living room. It wasn't that red, but the colored lights do create a cool effect... I painted the pic of Jack and Sally.

Another angle of the living room...

Shot inside the "Garage of Terror"...

And one more shot inside the garage...

What a great group of party goers. So fun to look over their costumes and I liked your chimney sweeper and Mary Poppins guys alot. Wonderful to see more original than store bought costumes.

Love NBC and loved what you did with the theme. I was going to ask where you bought the portrait of Jack and Sally and then saw that you said you painted it! Would not have guessed. Nice job! Also big wow on your Oogie Boogie photo op. Are you just naturally artistically talented or did you do an enlarge projection for these and used that for your image reference? And points for coming up with a way to use the Skeleton horse. Much better to see him used than sitting disassembled in a box.

Well looks like it was a super nice party and fun crowd. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thanks GoS.

I'm actually an illustrator - I did the Wolf Man avatar I use for a company a while back - and like to do the stuff myself when I have the time.
It was a fun party - we always get a real kick opening the door ands seeing how folks are dressed.
