Ghostly Pumpkins: May 2010
http://ghostlypumpkins.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 27, 2010. I've decided on a costume. I'm hoping it won't be too cold this year. Last year it was gorgeous weather wise.mild. It's too bad the kids were feeling a little under the weather recuperating from the flu then. Guess I couldn't have both nice weather and healthy kids. LOL! Perhaps this year will be different. Thursday, May 6, 2010. Usually there are two times of the year that I get the Halloween itch. In the month of May (yes, this month and I've already got it! The bat I think I ca...

Thursday, September 27, 2012. The House of Marrow. Can't remember if I have ever recommended Marrow's blog, but it is full of wonderful creations from New Zealand. It has quickly become one of my favorites. Image taken from The House of Marrow. Monday, September 24, 2012. Almost everything is better with creepy cloth. Sunday, September 23, 2012. Great work by Vintage Seance. Found this while looking through flickr. Saturday, September 8, 2012. Saturday, September 1, 2012. Something wicKED This Way Comes.

Nickols Manor: The Plan Book
http://www.nickolsmanor.com/2009/02/plan-book.html
Sunday, February 15, 2009. First, let me say that Jayson is sick, sick, sick. I think he has gotten out of bed long enough to take more tylenol, then went back up to sleep. He will get to the Jack posts as soon as he can hold his head up. (Wow, I should be taking care of him, huh? 160; Ok, I will… right after I make this post, haha). The Plan Book…. My plan book for last year was just a simple little spiral notebook that I divided into sections with post-it note tabs. The sections were:. Bought.&...

Nickols Manor: Styrofoam Graves – Basic Cutting and Shaping Foam
http://www.nickolsmanor.com/2009/02/styrofoam-graves-basic-cutting-and.html
Friday, February 6, 2009. Styrofoam Graves – Basic Cutting and Shaping Foam. There are a million ways to do these, but once you get started, be careful… it can easily become an addiction, and before you know it you will have to rent space in your neighbors yard in October of every year. Here’s my method, including some “Not To Do’s” that I learned this year – just for scientific purposes, of course… for sharing with the world! 160; (And NOT because I’m an idiot… Noooo, of course not). 4 Cut out sha...

Nickols Manor: End of April
http://www.nickolsmanor.com/2012/04/end-of-april.html
Sunday, April 29, 2012. Hi all, Dawn here. No pictures today, I’m just writing to catching up with my friends – YOU! It’s time to come out of hibernation around here at Nickols Manor, and we are starting to get ready to rumble. It’s been a roller coaster of an ‘off season’ for us, with the toughest heartbreak being the loss of respected Haunt blogger John Wolfe. I guess I need to chill out and realize that just may be how we roll! And to look at EVERTHING as a potential building material. HAUNTCAST: POST...

Nickols Manor: Smilin' Jack Pt. 1
http://www.nickolsmanor.com/2009/02/smilin-jack-pt-1.html
Monday, February 9, 2009. Smilin Jack Pt. 1. Jayson here. I'm going to talk about our 10'ft tall Monster Mud / Paper Mache. Creature named Smilin' Jack. Jack was heavily influenced by Pumpkinrot. I decided to rip the bottom jaw off of the pumpking and try something new. Yes, that's Duct Tape. Greatest invention ever made! Once everything was dry, I painted the entire pumpkin solid black. I then went back and drybrushed with white paint. No pictures for this part, but it looks just like Penelope. It is sh...

Nickols Manor: Annabel Lee
http://www.nickolsmanor.com/2009/06/annabel-lee.html
Thursday, June 18, 2009. No, I didn’t forget that I had a blog, although it seems that way! 160; I spent a week in Las Vegas, started a new job that takes the word “stress” to a whole new level, and booked a Disney vacation for September with all the stupid dinner reservations that must accompany such an event. Whew, that was one hella run-on sentence, and pretty much explains my last 6 weeks or so. Dave (DaveInTheGrave) gave step by step instructions for everyone to follow along. . Seven layers of Teen...

Friday, November 30, 2012. Rot sent me the link to this picture someone took of part of our haunt on Halloween night, I thought it was really cool. That's my wife, Andi, in the costume.

All-About-Halloween.com Blog: April 2011
http://blog.all-about-halloween.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Well, this is about Halloween. Need I say more? Let's talk about all things Halloween! Tuesday, April 26, 2011. This is somewhat Halloween related. I'm driving to a haunter's convention, HAuNTcon. Ok, so I'm a little nuts, too. I started off driving through all sorts of weather. Within the first hour after I left the house I drove through snow. A little later, hit rain. Now 4 hours later, it's nice. (Only in Colorado. and Kansas.) Bunch of wind. While driving I had thoughts (can you believe that? A frien...
