Day 21

 Can you believe how close we are now


Q&A

Worst Fear

    Wow, where do we start with worst fear. I don't have the traditional fears, such as my mom is claustrophobic. My dad had a fear of heights. I used to have arachnophobia but that eventually evolved to an appreciation as long as they are not hanging out and chillin on me. I will actually freak out more over their webs than the actual spider. I can not stand the feeling of spider webs. I will scream, drop to the ground, and freeze. Usually all of those while crying frantically. But even at that, I don't consider it an actual fear for myself because I can push through eventually. I will take a stick and wave it all in front of me as I walk. I know the beauty in spider webs as a photographer who shoots spiders and their webs. Now don't get me wrong, I do have a few phobias. Telephobia, coulrophobia, ommetaphobia, and Enochlophobia. But my worst fear are mirrors. There's so many variations of this phobia that labeling a specific 'phobia' is difficult. I hate mirrors. I have only one mirror in my home. But the fear stems from an unease with the energy that they put off. I always feel creeped out and like something is behind me or I'm going to see something else besides me in the room. Of course, the movie House, and others that use mirrors as portals sure don't help that fear.

Movie Night Title

House 2: The Second Story


    Once again, we get a guilty pleasure. I can't help but love this movie. It's got good comedy, great cast, and I want a puppipillar now. 

    I am already working on next years haunt sections and themes. One section will be reserved for fears and phobias. I don't have a whole lot of details because of focusing on this year. And the battling of cold weather and uncooperative spider web decorations. That section should be done by the end of the week, so pop on over to Insta to see the latest. I know, I know, it's cold and rainy so current work is slugging along.

The Mascot

 Meet Bob      I never planned to end up with a mascot, it just kinda happened. One of the first things I bought was a skeleton. His name was Bob, well, he just looks like a Bob. *Say 'hi' Bob*     He hangs by a noose at the entry to the front door. He has stayed in this exact location every year since the beginning in 2014.      So, a little about Bob. He's five feet tall and prefers to be called 'skin and bones' even though he does not have skin... Anyhoo, he doesn't ask for much and he always does his job. A couple of years into his employment, he finally had a request. He wanted a girlfriend. We'll get more into her later. The Promotion     Because Bob was such a good employee, I decided that for this new upgraded season, he deserved a promotion. Just not a raise. I mean, come on, what would he spend it on. Not like he's rocking any clothes. Bob is a bit of a nudist it would seem. Maybe a raise upward if the sisal rope that serv...

Day 14

  Officially two whole weeks done! Just a tad over two weeks to go. Q&A Slasher or Psychological     There are numerous genres within the horror category but it usually comes down to these topics. They both have their perks. But between them, I usually lean towards the psychological horror. Don't get me wrong, I do love the iconic slasher movies. However, I like not being able to predict what happens. Having a twist ending or red herrings throughout the films draws me into the story a lot more. Being a writer, and a very analytical mind, I usually end up working out the mystery fairly well. So for those that can keep me guessing, they tend to rank higher for me. Movie Night Title Waxwork II: Lost in Time          This is another guilty pleasure. Apparently, I have a theme of Bruce Campbell and severed hands. It still remains one of my favorite movies just because it's not at all serious in nature, it has a superb cast, and there's an Edgar All...

  We are under a week Almost there Q&A Carve Pumpkins or Make Pumpkin Pie     This is actually an easy question for me. I am not a big fan of pumpkin flavor so when I bake, it's usually cookies and cupcakes. However, I love carving pumpkins every year. The number that I will carve will depend on how I feel that particular year and how much other things I have to do. I try to carve as close to Halloween as I can, just to preserve the freshness of the pumpkins. I don't want them to wilt too much before the big night. This year I am carving two pumpkins. Mainly because I have been doing so much other work and building props. I have also not even begun to look for ideas as to what I will carving.  Movie Night Title Dreamcatcher      This pick is pretty much for the fact that I love Stephen King. I had started reading the book but got distracted with life and work. When I heard they were optioning the novel for the big screen, I had to finish it. So I b...
