Evil or Very Mad HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Evil or Very Mad

Hope all the Lunarforums members have a very happy and safe Halloween!

Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays.  As for the reason why, I'm not 100% sure. I guess dressing up is always fun, and I have always been a big horror/scary movie fan.  Of course, it doesn't hurt I have a birthday in October too - which I am sure leads to some of my love for the month. 

I haven't done much dressing up the past few years, however - I always remember dressing up a zombie as being one of the more fun experiences of my childhood. Think I might have dressed up as MC Hammer too, but thankfully none of those pictures survived my childhood.  Grr..!!

So how are you going to spend your scariest night of the year, or what is your fondest memory of Halloween? Feel free to share!

Hahahaha Happy Halloween O' Forum God!  Thumbs Up  I have some things done for Halloween .. got MY FGC and Axworthy built and running.. Got the dremmel tool out and cut some grave stones out of that nice Pink vinyl siding Styrofoam and used some granite texture paint to make then real looking. Even went all out and Animated a Grim Reaper for the front porch.. Umm yeah I am a hardcore Halloween Decorator hahaha..

Maybe if all goes well, I will youtube vids of it and post it .. My digital camcorder bit the dust so I am going to pray that the webcam and laptop will capture it this time.

Aight here is a daylight video done from my laptop.. We built an Axworhty flying ghost system, use a ceiling fan motor, three bicycle rims and 350 feet of .030 string trimmer wire. The beginning is the Flying Crank Ghost designed by Doug Ferguson which mine is a very cheap made on hehee.. about 60 bucks opposed to 250. The stalker behind the half toe pincher coffin was done using a floor oscillating floor fan and cheese cloth with clothes hanger wire and some wood.  Worked pretty good looked much better at night hahaha

It is all good Radeon, to me candy is low on my Halloween expectations.. I just like building things and making them animated.. Unfortunately, my nephew and I were broke so .. it was all up to a good imagination and a lot of creative engineering this time around. We are working on next years now.

Thanks Mitch!!  Next year will definitely exceed this years.. since I have moved back to my home state I am able to go in with family and build a lot of stuff now. Next year is a vortex tunnel for starters hehee.. Halloween is not fun without it hahahaha..

We decided the leave the axworthy up .. we tend to put reindeer and santa's sleigh on it for something different for the holidays lol..

But the FGC is going down.. I can't imagine having Santa hooked up to it and floating up and down in the window with a blacklighjt making it look scary hahaha..  Forgive my demented thoughts there ..

Mitch, if you want to see how some of these are built and may want to do some at your home just hit this link http://www.halloweenmonsterlist.info/

That is the number one resource for home haunters.
