Naturally Carved Pumpkin
Instead of carving the jack-o-lantern myself this year, I poked a bunch of small holes in a pumpkin and stuffed the holes with peanut butter. I then let the squirrels go at it for two days. The result is something truly disturbing.

We go off...my husband does movie lighting and I do makeup. Every year I go to the thrift shop and pick up dolls that I repaint into zombies and evil clowns. We have a full zombie graveyard, rear projection ghosts, a fog machine, etc.

I saw a Jeep on the hyway (I have a Jeep as well) with a skeleton clinging to the spare tire! I might just copy that idea.

This is my October every year, with my hubby! He adores adores adores Halloween. Show him a real skull, he'd pass out, but... there we are. (This year's yard includes Dinner With the Dead, and spiderweb "lace" I crocheted to look like, yes, real webs.)

Y’all are so creative! I live on a little dead end street and no one comes here on Halloween, otherwise I’d be super motivated to set up something cool.

Aww, all the people I know are on this page! Year around, my family has had a 7 foot Jason Voorhees statue in my living room and a vampire and zombie head sun my living with Jason. We have coffin shaped shelves and also a 8 ft Jack Skellington animatronic in our foyer. Sorry, but I can’t figure out how to post pictures with this…
