This Saturday we held our second Halloween party. I really went all out this year planning and doing multiple builds over the course of the year, as well as watching yard sales and craigslist to pick up great deals. The theme this year was insane asylum, though I didn't really go all out to try to get everything to match the theme, only a few rooms plus our costumes fit. But it was still fun, and makes me see the potential in having a more strong unifying theme going forward into the next year. I've got tons of pics, which I'll add to this thread as well.
Moved some of the props out front for TOTing. This was our first year doing a big front yard display. Last year we focused mainly on the party, not knowing how many people would show up for TOTing. Turns out a ton, since we have an elementary school nearby, as well as a lot of lower-income apartment complexes nearby where the parents bring their kids into our neighborhood so they can go door to door. Knowing that we did a big set up out front and ended up getting around 200 visitors. I imagine it will only get bigger from here as word gets out. Here are pictures from the night.
For several years I have been toiling with the idea of starting my own Halloween themed website. I have been waiting until I had enough content; at least interesting stuff that people would actually want to look at. I think I'm finally ready to share my twisted thoughts and ghastly images with...
Just wanted to share our haunt this year - we just moved into the neighborhood in August (that is one way to make a first impression on the neighbors...lol). Only had about a month and a half to get it up and running but it turned out pretty amazing.
Enjoy!
I know it is crazy early, but I bet some of you are already planning and making those to do lists. And in sharing what we do, we find people who can help us achieve.
So tell me, how many and what are the tasks are on your to do list for Halloween 2020?
Can’t wait to hear how many of you are...
I thought a thread dedicated to posting “helpful” solution items might make an interesting read. We all come up against projects doing something for the first time and might not know about things that could make our projects easier/cheaper maybe even better. So share if you have or used...
Here we go again. All those with brave hearts and green thumbs climb on board for the 2020 pumpkin growers thread. Here we can discuss anything about our endeavors to grow pumpkins for the Halloween season. From the tiny mini-pumpkins to those tipping the scales at a ton, no pumpkin is out of...
