One of the main goals of this blog was always to document the process of creating my Halloween props and then share it with my fellow haunters. Below you will find links to all of the completed prop how-tos that I have done up to this point. I hope this continually evolving page will serve as a quick reference point that can guide and inspire other haunters with their projects and displays...
