The Halloween blog of the Haunted Eve Home Haunt has been around since 2010 (and it's still going!). I've featured images from their amazing Haunt many times on this blog (Click here to see 'em). So many wonderful entries and some of the best jack-o'-lanterns you'll ever see.

Yup, that's the playlist name...
If you weren't feeling poor enough, Anthropologie added their full Halloween product line to their site.
Found out that a local party supply store is going out of business at the end of the month. It's been there forever, and it was part of the annual Halloween store checklist each season. Sad to see it go, so I wanted to post one last photo gallery for posterity.
A really neat cocktail book with some spooky variations of classic drinks. We made the first official round last night and it's going to be a ton of fun picking a movie and its correlating cocktail as we get closer and closer to Halloween.
Speaking of Halloween blogs...
Oh, to be able to dine at a place with a giant skull looming above.
There's a wonderful post over at the October Branches Halloween blog. Tjalgahorn explored a topic that could make or break a Home Haunt - lighting. And in particular... blue lighting. It's a terrific entry and feels like a blog post from the old days of Halloween blogs. When you could take a break at work during lunch or pour some coffee on a weekend and go see what people were featuring. Much slower pace than the modern form of social media. Maybe a dozen (or more) regularly-updated blogs... paragraphs of thought for your reading pleasure. Funny stories, prop how-to's, Haunt photo galleries, movie trailers, random life stories... all out there in the blogosphere. Not many of us left these days, and that makes T's post extra special to this guy.
Temps in the 60's at the moment, going up to 81 today. Not too shabby. Clove incense in the garden, windchimes gabbing away, and all the windows open.
Halloween was the time she figured most prominently in our thoughts. First because she was a witch, of course, and second because of a time-honored ritual among the neighborhood children concerning her and ourselves and that evening of the year.
