You new?

Poem

Yard Haunter

Sculpting and painting and hammering nails,
This is the life I live.
Working as hard as I can, on my free time.
I plan, obsess. I need to get it right,
Because it was meant to look scary to them, not me.
Props.

Planning and moving and contemplating,
This is the life I live.
I am like an artist, trying to perfect the picture.
Getting that prop to pose just right.
That light's aimed the wrong way
and that streetlight overpowers everything.
Decorating.

Jumping and chasing and popping out.
This is the life I live.
The children walk carefully through the haunt
and the screams are music to my ears.
Me and my family chasing and startling them.
Scaring.

Paper Clay How To Coming Soon...

I decided to try making paper clay since it's expensive. It was worth it. Right now I'm drying some paper clay that ended up being too wet. Man it feels great, like silk clay. Here's the how to I very roughly followed. I would suggest only making a bowl-full of it. It will take a while to get it right. How to Make Paper Clay

This giant puppet was created by Halloween Zombie out of PVC and a lot of trial and error.

New stuff coming

I admit it. I totally forgot about this blog! I recently got an iPad and it so incredible it's distracting me. I'm sorry about the broken promises last time about new content but you know, our lives must inevitably change. In fact I've been leaning away from Halloween lately... Weird. All hope is not lost though guys I'm gonna get back in the game. And I'll start by starting to work on the 2010 season video this week and week-end. This will be my first haunt, so be kind. There was a lot of empty spots... You'll see soon.
Stay scary!
