Female Zombie Prop Makeover

While we are not planning on doing another vampire themed Halloween yard haunt until 2026, we couldn't help but see the potential of transforming our 2012 Spirit Halloween female zombie prop (who played the Duchess on our front porch this Halloween) into a vampiress with the right set of prosthetic vampire teeth. After slightly trimming her upper and lower dentures down a bit and some hot melt glue, she's ready for a night out of feeding on the town!

Haunt Setup Progress

Weather is currently damp and in the 40s but we're still plugging away at the haunt set up for Halloween. Pulled these two zombie props out of the basement. We don't think they have been used since our 2012 yard haunt. We also had to get creative with our potted faux cattail props. On Friday the cattails would not stay upright out by our two swamp zombie skeletons due to the wind, so we tucked them into our juniper shrubs along our walkway.

Voodoo Themed Yard Haunt 20th Anniversary

20 years ago we did a Voodoo themed yard haunt for Halloween 2003. The haunt theme was inspired by the 1966 Hammer Horror film "The Plague Of Zombies". We're reimagining our 2003 haunt with a Haunted Bayou themed haunt for Halloween 2023. Below are photos from our 2003 haunt along with the movie trailer that inspired it.

Halloween Comes Early

This year's theme was "Zombies".

Since hurricane Sandy may make a total mess of Halloween night we had to break protocol and set the haunt up early to get pictures. Happy Halloween!
