Small cauldron....


I love the small cast iron cauldrons.  I also love my Pumpkinrot Creatures.  I have 5.  You'll see them in little vignettes throughout my indoor Halloween insanity.

Nobody does it better...











He's the reason we try.

He's the reason we try harder. 

He's inspiration.

He's talent. 

He's Pumpkinrot.    


           Thanks for  yet
         another great year.

Sherwood Scare - 2014 Walkthrough

I don't know how many of you have seen this video from Sherwood Scare but it's pretty darn amazing for a home haunt.  Definitely worth watching.....





With or without.....


I found these amazing realistic eyeballs this year.  I tried them everywhere.  I put them in cast iron ladles, bird nests, turkey claws, bird beaks.....you got the idea.  I'm thinking I'd like to put one in a cast iron ladle and surround it with leather.  In my mind it would look like "Book" in "Hocus Pocus."



Turkey claw without?

Turkey claw with?

I do like the red of the fingers in the background.

I do love green eyes!!

Idanha Hotel...

Isn't this a great spooky photo?  We had a full moon last Thursday night and I got this photo on my phone.  Gotta love old architecture.



Idanha Hotel ~ Boise

And this is what it's all about...






Halloween night.  I love the kids, the crowds, the adults, the smoke, the excitement, the candy.....I love it.  Ususally I don't get photos of the crowds.  This year I got a few.  We have 314 kids that actually made it to the door.  At least another 40+ that did not.  Maybe next year they will.

And more kids
