Two Weeks To Go...


Two weeks to go until the big night and it looks like things are starting to come together here at the Cemetery. Yesterday, Mrs. Highbury did a dry run on this year's new witch makeup.  A new nose and chin prosthetic and some makeup to blend it all together. She'll also be using her zombie contacts from last year...



I think the children will be sufficiently frightened. And now that we have this down, we'll be doing the same makeup application to the two other witches in our coven this weekend. Whether they like it or not...

Also, the Trick-or-Treat sign has gone up at the top of the neighborhood, proclaiming the official date of our annual event. It's been up for a day and it hasn't been stolen or vandalized yet, but I'll keep my fingers crossed. A bigger challenge looms in the forecast for the rest of the week, as it's supposed to rain for the next three days. Hopefully the paint will seal the wood enough to make it through the next 14 long days.




And it's amazing that this sign is 4 feet by 2 feet in size. I thought it might be too big for the street, but it looks a bit small driving by. But I don't want to overdo it...

Compared to last year's version:

Size matters, well done. Way to bring some professionalism to the table. What is that on last year's sign, bottled glitter paint? Save that crap for homemade high school football sweatshirts. We're talking about the single greatest day of the year!
