I have been decorating my front door for Halloween for a couple of decades. I talked about it previously here. This year, however I won't be doing it up much. The reason? The premiere party for the movie noted below. I co-wrote a horror/comedy short a couple of years ago a the request of an actress. And, dang, if she didn't get it made! Anyway, the screening is Halloween night, so I won't be home for the trick-or-treaters.
Some of my other favorite things were the rubber skull. It's my second. The rubber started to come apart on the first one I had (which was a rare find) and I was desperate for a replacement. Where did I find it? DisneyWorld. Grabbed it as soon as I saw it. My one disappointment? I saw these amazing Haunted Mansion Ghosts masks (which would have fit on my mechanical man really well) but I didn't buy one. They were pricey. I figured "next time." When we returned several years later, they no longer sold them. Drat. Anyway, years later I found blinking eye ball lights (for Jack o'Lanterns) and installed them in the skull. I always enjoyed the effect.
One year I bought a cauldron for the time I turned the mechanical man into a witch. Then I got a coffin. It was perfect! It folded up. The lid open and closed. It lit up at night! Some assembly required, however. But then I got a smoke machine and put that inside the coffin and it was awesome. So naturally, the man would be a vampire from time to time.
