Halloween Party

Saturday night was a huge success. The place was decorated from head to toe, right down to the crawling hand from Walmart that we bought last year. We had some fun special effects and the long errie hallway was perfect to set the mood. I turned another year older, which is scary but had a fantastic birthday. I received another Tiffany's box with a beautiful pendant from hubby. We went to the movies and saw Trust the Man. It had a stellar cast and was set in NYC.
Decorating for the party took a few hours and unfortunately I didn't take any photos on the night. It wasn't fancy dress but I wore my Wicked T-Shirt which was perfect. Anyway, happy trick or treating!

Trick Or Treat

This October I'm having another Halloween party. It's my 39th birthday party so the scary theme is quite appropriate! I've been obsessed with my party which is still three weeks away. I created first class invites, have created fabric for 'haunted' curtains and even framed a postcard of Linda Blair from the Exorcist. It should be a fun night. My most impressive accomplishment is Franken-Cher, a dummy that I created. It's a life size dummy stuffed with newspaper that sits in the corner. It will scare the pants off anybody who turns the corner. I named her Franken-Cher because it boasts one of her wigs! All I have to do now is create a menu and hope that the guests arrive with bells on.
I found a picture book of vintage Halloween imagery when we were in Cologne last year. This is a photo of the front cover...it's a classic.

I've also started watching a couple of shows called Most Haunted...and Dead Famous - both shows are about paranormal behavior in haunted houses? It's creepy and good for a laugh.
