Some more from today's set up~





Still gotta add the gargoyles and sconces to the two main pillars (and of course a few more dead things) but I usually wait for that until Halloween day!

I carved a friend to go with my Frankenstein pumpkin earlier in the thread. Hopefully you know who it's supposed to be. Kinda looks like him if you blur your eyes...

I like the disturbing theme of your home boarded-up to prepare for the night of the living dead!
Some kids may decide to skip your scary home. BIG UPS for your setup concept and hard work!

WOWZERS!!  You all have some fantastic decorations, jack o'lanterns & yard haunts!!! I cannot tell you how much I admire your hard work, monster fiends!!  I am in some brilliant company!  JEEPERS CREEPERS! That Jeepers Creepers ghoul is grand!!!
ZH- Your house is always a Halloween mansion! I swear I have talked about your columns to my husband waaaaay too many times! If he ever ran into you in a public place, I'm sure he'd refer to you as "Mr. Fancy Columns" hahahaha! He'd better build me some next year! Although I can't complain too much- I did get him to build me a coffin this year   :)
It's very tiring to set ALL this stuff up & keep the fog juice filled, hand out hundreds of bags of candy & tear it all down after it's all over....but we can't stop!! It's a dying art form! Yard haunting rules! And if you don't have a yard- Haunting your own space or cell is just as cool!  WOOOOHOOO! Have a good one tomorrow night!!! 
Happy Halloween!!!!

Thanks!!  The house/set up actually looks more ominous than it actually is....more Haunted Mansion than Elm St......nothing jumps out or startles you!  Still some kids have been known not to enter the graveyard!

I didn't get to put everything out since it was still raining off and on but it was still a decent set up.  Here are some pics.
Apparently something is set wrong on the camera as some of the pictures turned out like crappy cell phone pics but here they are nonetheless?!!

GOOD SHOW, zombiehorror!!  We also had to keep running in & out of the rain. I finally just left the fragile props in the house.  I took a few pics, but they were from my phone....and they are kind of bad. hahaha! I'll scrape a couple up & post them. ON TO H2K14!

Man, those columns are so amazing, I'd want to keep them up all year round! (which of course, would ruin them).  :P

Found these in the Christmas section at a store called Rural King?!  These things don't have a Christmas vibe to them at all, they are not bright-shiny, nor are they gold, silver, red or green!  They actually look aged-creepy as is!!

I got 4 sets, normally $10 each but all Christmas was 50%!


Not sure where they are going next year but they will definitely be part of the graveyard!

So here are some pictures of me and the crew from this past Halloween. First, Deuce and I admiring the treats on the dining room table:

And here I am examining the results after the lady across the street had had it up to here with her roommate's slovenly habits:
