I will be going to my girlfriend house for dinner and help her pass out candy to the kids in her area and sit back and watch some movies later on. I just wanted to say Happy Halloween and thanks for having me here.

Happy Halloween... I'll be in the cemeteries tonight, there are always those kids that come out there to try and scare their girlfriends or just their friends in general. Little do they know that a few of my friends and I are there waiting to put the "fright into their night" Muhahahaha!!!

Alright, alright. Sheesh. The night pics don't come out so well but...

This one is from setting up a couple weeks ago.

Front of the house tonight

Image
Side of the house. The lights that look like a horseshoe pattern are called Jeeper Peepers. I love them. They're eyes that turn on and off. They're set up in a giant evergreen tree on the side of our house. There's twelve sets of eyes altogether and they flicker to give that old time cartoon effect of one someone would be in the dark and then eyes would be all around them. So cool.

One garage door we don't use

Kids getting ready to go out

Image
Front of the hosue from a few weeks ago. Sadly the giant spider died recently. just bought the thing last year after Halloween. Not sure, thing the motor got plugged and burned out. :zodsad:

Image
The table where the magic happens. This year we got a skull fogger that has a trigger to set it off. Love it. Great for scaring older kids as they approach. A lot of them are freaked out by the butler so they're aren't expecting fog to shoot out. Hahahaha!
Kids and grandma getting ready to go.
I have a soundtrack of Halloween songs I play on a loop and a strobe light in the back. Besides candy we do cider and donuts every. This year not as many people were interested. Curse you ebola!!!!

Front stairs

Me and the Butler. If anyone asks, yes, he did it!

Thanks I always swore as a kid that I wanted to be that house all the kids talk about and will remember when they're older. Its kind of sad that not a lot of people decorate anymore. Even a few lights ot something.

I had that same feeling as a kid and STILL want to have that kind of house, but, I've always been big on holidays that call for some cool decorations. Well, mostly Halloween and Christmas really. But, I've yet to have a house like that going. I do carved pumpkins each year though, so, it's better than nothing. I just don't have any outdoor lights yet. I focus too much on indoor stuff since I don't even have much of a neighborhood to show off to.
