New to site
Hey everyone,
In the days before internet, I used to think I was the only person who was fanatical about Halloween. Now I see that is not true.
Everything about Halloween has consumed me since I can remember. Really. I tell people that Halloween is in my DNA & I'm not being casual about that statement. I would trade 1,000 other holidays for just one night of Halloween. The weird part is that my sister is just as fanatical about Halloween. I won't get metaphysical here, but I can't help pondering if there is some sort of genetic and/or pre-ordained factor that predisposes us to Halloween.
Anyway, I'm happy to be a part of this forum & look forward to interacting with everyone here.

Greetings, ronin80.
I can sympathise with the internet thing though..I used to think I was the only one who did this kind of thing (I'm in England)... then you find a site like this and discover fantastic people who have been doing it bigger, better and badder than you for years...It's rather a humbling experience.

I'm not sure about that..the rest of my family think I'm a total looney.won't get metaphysical here, but I can't help pondering if there is some sort of genetic and/or pre-ordained factor that predisposes us to Halloween.

Welcome to the forum.
"I'm not sure about that..the rest of my family think I'm a total looney."
Thanks for the welcome, Baron Samedi. Actually, I have a half-sister who is totally anti-Halloween! Halloween is her most hated time of the year. And yes, she tends to think that my full-blooded sister & I are total loons. But you know what? You can't deny what's in you. And Halloween is in our blood, mind, spirit & soul.
I might also add that my girlfriend is likewise a Halloween addict. She doesn't celebrate any holiday except for Halloween. So I don't know exactly why some people are somewhat predisposed to Halloween. All I know is that there was one year I wasn't able to celebrate Halloween because of extreme commitments. It was one of the most miserable times of my life.

Welcome fellow fanatic! Happy haunting!
If it was not for the internet I doubt if I ever would have thought there was this large of a community for Halloween. Welcome aboard and enjoy.
Hello Ronin80, welcome to the forum, so glad you found us!!
Welcome Ronin! I'm not sure if genetics have a role in this or not! No one else in my family could give two figs about Halloween. Although, I think i am finally starting to win over my younger brother, he started helping me with props last year.
