Old School Halloween

Long live those Haunts with guillotines.  With their soft cardboard blades and their bright red blood.

Herman's Hollow

An absolutely beautiful Home Haunt from Ohio.  With some early photos from the Haunter's grandfather's Halloween display.  Love seeing something like this carried on in the family.  


Stunning work.

The Hunchback Of Notre-Dame

He therefore turned to mankind only with regret. His cathedral was enough for him. It was peopled with marble figures of kings, saints and bishops who at least did not laugh in his face and looked at him with only tranquility and benevolence. The other statues, those of monsters and demons, had no hatred for him – he resembled them too closely for that. It was rather the rest of mankind that they jeered at. The saints were his friends and blessed him; the monsters were his friends and kept watch over him.

Night Of A Thousand Corpses

Man, there's so much here.  A Hell Hole with a sign saying as much (Hell's always open; even on Christmas).  A guillotine where the executioner paints 'Happy Halloween' with the latest victim's blood (assumption:  I'd hate to have my head chopped off with a blade that still had some other person's blood on it).  Floating eyeballs.  

And a smoking Coffin Creature with the biggest hands ever.  I'd run to this house every year if I lived nearby.  And you know the guy is known as Mr. Halloween.

Of The Hollow

Another of his sources of fearful pleasure was to pass long winter evenings with the old Dutch wives, as they sat spinning by the fire, with a row of apples roasting and spluttering along the hearth, and listen to their marvellous tales of ghosts and goblins, and haunted fields, and haunted brooks, and haunted bridges, and haunted benches.  (I took some liberties here.)

Glowing Halloween

Love seeing so many strands of lights used in Halloween displays.








I remember you when, Jason.
