Any Halloween yard haunter out there?
 

Anybody out there decorate their yard for Halloween?
I found a great site for ideas and how-to's for Halloween props. So if you decorate (or over decorate) your yard for Halloween check out Haunting's Home on the Web [URL deleted- site plugging]

I dress as a scarecrow and sit in front of my house with a bowl of candy in my lap. If someone takes too many, I move.

Oh, I also like to soak a roll of toilet paper in kerosene overnight and use it to light the most badass jack-o-lanterns ever. Last year the flames were 6' tall for nearly 30 minutes.

Sounds like a lot of fun, Willravel.

A couple of years ago we visited our friend's neighborhood where every house on one street had a haunted house setup. Some of them were especially impressive. I'll never forget the bloody hand that grabbed my shoulder as I walked through one of the backyards, set up as a haunted cornfield.

i guess im a bit unoriginal when it comes to this.

the only time i hid in the yard to frighten the youngsters i was ducked behind the shrubs in a tattered jump suit, a friday the 13th style hockey mask, and a chainless chainsaw. After the kids would get their candy and start back down the long, shub-shadowed path i would crank the chainsaw, wait for the kids to look around, and pop right through the hedges.

i remember when i was a kid, someone did the sit still technique Will was talking about. he waited until i grabed some candy, and calmly said "GI Joe, aye?"

it scared the living shit out of me. i had not seen that coming. fucker was hiding in plain sight.

god i love Halloween.

I'm working on my first animated prop this year. I'm making a witch stiring a caldron. My wife will do a recording for the voice. It's amazing the props some people can make.
