So, it's time to get started on my halloween display for this year, but I'm pretty much out of ideas that fit in with our current display items.
Here is what we have to work with atm:
about 10-15 gravestones
several bodies
lots of fake bones
a few of those hanging skeleton things
a zombie
40 foot inflatable spider
two 6 foot inflatable spiders
loads of web
I know it probably seems really early to start, but most of our stuff is diy, so it takes quite a while to put it all together, especially since we add things every year.
I was thinking about a zombie digging itself out of the ground, but other than that, no great ideas. So, post any ideas, and I will do my best to make it happen. It just needs to fit the theme.
BTW, I will be sure to post pictures of last year's display tomorrow. I accidentally left my camera bag in my parents' room.
EDIT: Be patient, pics are coming. They weren't on my old memory card, and my laptop corrupted them, so the only remaining copy is on the server at my dad's house, which he loves to turn off even after I tell him to leave it on.
WOOHOO! Pictures!
It seems that these were taken two years ago while things were being put up. Sadly I cannot find any of the finished display.
Anyway, here is the spider. The rope is still all bunched up and it isn't in place at all, but this gives you an idea of what it is.
Moar pics sooon
Here's Tim the victim
The whole display, about halfway complete
So, yeah. The pictures are really bad, and the display is nowhere near complete, but this should give you an idea.
I just found some pics from last year on my dad's camera. Last year's display went up in two days due to me being in the hospital, so it is still somewhat incomplete. The main points are all there though.
