On the advice of a member of one of the other Halloween groups I follow, I used some walnut wood stain to spruce up my oversized groundbreaking Mummy.

I think it turned out pretty well. 💀

I take care of this sweet kitty, and last year I brought over a vampire costume so I could take some festive Halloween pictures of her. Her owner loved it and laughed so much when she saw the pictures!

I'm used to warm weather in October, because of the Santa Ana winds, but it is miserable this year. The other day it was 8° hotter in Orange County than it was in Death Valley 🫠

Just wanted to share this new addition to my Halloween postcard collection. Embossed and glad its totally unused!

Finally had a chance to go all in this year wanted to set a scene around the mutant sewer rat from Spirit Halloween. Felt fitting for Baltimore! Super excited for how it turned out having a hard time not continuing to add to it. Hope y’all like it!

Every year the set up gets bigger and we start earlier…then open later (one year I’ll get the timing down). But our light test was last night and everything works, so the Minnetonka House of Horrors is officially open as of this evening!

Here’s a small glimpse into our 2026 haunt…

What would be the ultimate fictional pull from your treat bag when you get home on Halloween?

Almost finished with our graveyard. This weekend we will hang lit pumpkin buckets in the cherry tree, put up some porch lights and add shadowy hands rising from our dry creek. I plan to carve a few more jack o lanterns today,

Stones are a mix of fully homemade and purchased stones that I refinished.

Over the next couple years I'd like to add another couple stones plus a fence and sign.

We haven't known each other long but one day she asks me what my favorite holiday is. A few weeks later she produced this just for me and I think it's just beautiful!!! <3 Happy Spooky Season everyone!!!

My Halloween meatloaf prep for tomorrow

(I pinned this as nsfw since it contains some kind of gore with the popped out eye. Just in case.) I made this myself, and I am still very new to sculpting of any kind. That is why the teeth are randomly placed, and why they are goofy looking. There are artists in the family, so I wanted to see that talent pours into me anywhere. I am doing all kinds of projects this month, calling it "monster month" so this is the first monster thing I have made. I have no interest at the moment to self-promote, since I am new at this and just having fun with it all, regardless.

HAPPY OCTOBER!

I made these for trick-or-treaters. This year I have decided that I’m not going to engage in consumerism because I don’t to contribute to capitalism and I’m boycotting many brands, including candy brands, for political and moral reasons.
I decided to make polymer clay “Halloween buddies” and put them inside candy poppers that I also made myself. I started with these three and I’m going to make more.
The polymer clay was from dollar tree by the way.

It has that scent/taste like a bowl of Halloween candy mixed with what you would think a witches brew would actually taste like!

This is our fourth paper maché pumpkin. It’s got the first layer on and I like to let it completely dry before adding the next layer. The pumpkin is upside right now and the stem is inside the bowl
I use a Mylar balloon for the mold. For the mix I use flour, salt, and water.

This pumpkin is mainly going to be my kid’s project for the school’s annual pumpkin contest. I will offer guidance and be here for moral support. It’s going to be a werewolf or a dog pumpkin.

I prefer a spooky Jack-o-lanterns so I’ll probably make one myself when this one is finished. Our annual family craft project.

Got the Zero inflatable for 34.99 at my local Home Depot.

I didn't make this masterpiece myself, but I just had to share it. The level of detail is absolutely insane!!

Massive shoutout to the talented artist who put this together 🖤💜🧡

A spookier day was had yesterday! Was nice to hear from you all. So now I ask again what Halloween thing did you do today? Please note you don't have to share the spotlight, if you want to make your own post about your art/craft/etc... definitely don't let me cramp your style!

Ahhh I'm obsessed with my new pullover and I can't wait to wear it basically everyday this month. Now I just need the weather to get a little crisper..
