Halloween Haunted House part II

I tried to get better pictures of the house for today's post. The detail on some of yesterday's were a bit fuzzy. I didn't realize I had not put the house out in a few years and it was quite entertaining to observe my adult kids reaction to seeing it again. They helped to put everything in it's place and reminisced about their haunted house memories.


Aren't these trick or treaters cute?


Here they are without their masks.


Doesn't someone always come along and smash your Jack O'Lanterns?


There is something about pumpkins that makes kids want to smash them. I guess it is just part of Halloween.


The leaf rake is by the front door.


A black cat sits in a box of leaves with a pumpkin and a Jack O'Lantern.


A spider web stretches across a window.


A ghost hangs from the roof just above eyes peering out of the window.


A witch left her hat hooked on the fence.


A raccoon is perched on the roof.


The Headless Horseman rides by.


The table is set for a Halloween feast. There is a bowl of candy, a ghost cupcake and someone has already cut a piece of the pumpkin pie.


Assorted Halloween candy


The Phantom of the Opera costume and a clown costume are ready to be donned.


Tarot cards and more treats.


Pumpkin carving is so messy.



Bat punch and caramel apples and a sheet cake....get it....ghost/sheet. Bad pun!
Cookie dough and frosting


Potion making ingredients


And a movie to watch in the evening...Dracula, of course.


It looks like a murder occurred here.


The body was dragged from the room.


It appears that it's head hit every step on the way down.


A full trick or treat bag.


The witch must have melted.


Someone ended up in the cauldron.


And someone's head was smashed on the side of the house. See the blood?


Most of the windows have been boarded up.





The sewing table has everything needed to make costumes.


And the cat found some milk to drink.


The leaves have been placed in the trash.


If you look closely there is a snake in the moss on the roof.


The ghosts are dancing.


The tree is decorated for Halloween.


KEEP OUT!!!!!!
