Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

I've been back from Charleston since Friday, but have been catching up on chores. I started decorating my yard only this afternoon.

Charleston was amazing!!!! My daughter and I can't wait to go back. And it is very haunted. We took a haunted carriage ride the first night, and I bought a book about ...

I've been away and am behind in viewing, but the Oldman Dracula, The Exorcist, and all things Christopher Lee are among my faves. I also like The Rite.

I do have the NBC DVD, but it's been ages since I checked the extra features. I'll have to look.

I stubbornly cling to hope for a grandchild or two.

My mother was one of four kids, and each one of them had only one apiece. They all graduated into the Depression and WW2. I don't think times are as bad as that right now.

No, it's from c 2012, when the movie was released. I was unfamiliar with an earlier version, though I think maybe there was one. We have the DVD of 2012 Frankenweenie.

We have white pumpkins around here, maybe not as white as that. But they are great for carving skull faces. I have found their rind is thicker than the orange pumpkins.

I think the Beanies have had a bit of a resurgence. Possibly Care Bears have as well. It's somewhat cyclic. 90s kids who now have kids of their own are getting nostalgic. Of course, my own 90s kids don't appear to know how to make babies. I guess I failed them. But there are a few out there who did ...

Those commercials are all very cute!

That and a sip of pure vanilla extract. Two of the biggest disappointments of childhood.

That's a great list. I own most, but not all, of those movies. I just acquired the full Nightmare on Elm Street series. It's fun watching baby Johnny Depp, since he's a favorite actor of mine. We've been having a bit of a Depp marathon this season, with repeated viewings of Sleepy Hollow, From Hell ...

Beautiful!

I still haven't done squat, but I did buy ten cheap, tiny jack o lanterns at Walmart and some LED flicker lights. I intend to hang them in my tree branches on the big night, provided it doesn't rain.

That's cute. One of the things I miss about commercial TV is the imagination of some of the ads. I recall one from a few years ago, no longer recall the product, but it had a group of young people fleeing a serial.killer and choosing all the worst hide outs.

Kit Kats have some Halloween flavors ...

I agree with your assessment of the Fraser Mummy movies, HH.

My daughter, who collected stuffed animals throughout her teen years, has a stuffed Frankenweenie. I wonder how many of those exist.

Lol ! You know, I vividly remember doing that when I was about 3. I climbed onto the kitchen table and started eating it. My mother caught me, of course.

That is amazing!

I am very behindhand with my decorating. My husband just mowed the front yard, so I'm hoping to get stuff out this week.
