"Jack's Masquerade" by Arnaud de Vallois
{x-posted from Pumpkinrot}
When I saw Pumpkinrot post this image by Arnaud de Vallois I literally sat up and started to do a little happy clap!
Besides being almost unbearably cool this image is such a conceptual inspiration for the party this year!
Sometimes when cobbling together an original concept finding or keeping inspiration/direction can be hard but this image has proven to be such a bolster!
Check out s'Arnaud de Vallois' blog for some more really amazing work!

HalloweenExpress.com Haul
I took advantage of HalloweenExpress.com's 4 hour 25% off + Free Shipping to pick up a couple small things for the party!
I have a couple more of these skeletons from last year and I plan to give them all a nice black-light reactant paint job!
Also, I'm really excited to finally have a fog timer! Though I got this one for a song (25% off $25) I did find one that was the exact same model on Walmart.com for $20.
Someone stop me from dragging out my Halloween stuff already!!

Behind the Scenes: Frankenstein 1931
Recently the Chive put out some behind the scenes photos from the filming of the 1931 classic, Frankenstein.
Check them out here.
Many of these pictures show Boris Karloff having his legendary makeup applied in various stages. Also included are more casual shots of Karloff eating lunch and working with the set crew.
I really enjoyed seeing the man behind the makeup in these shots! Anyone know if candids like these exist for Bella Lugosi's Dracula films?

Mr. Chicken's DIY Yard Haunt
Attention all DIY-ers! I Have found a really great blog for you! The blog is called Mr. Chicken's Yard Haunt and its proprietor has done some really great stuff with props and even makeups!
His most recent project is very clever and involves projecting spooky images onto tombstones! He offers his projections for a fee but he makes no secret of how to do it for yourself.
However, for me, the most impressive DIY project was the Paper Mache Skeleton. In this instructable he shows how to create a realistic looking skeleton using simple and inexpensive materials such as newspaper, flour, spray paint etc.
This project is especially exciting for those of us who have wanted a large scale skeleton for our haunt but are unwilling or unable to part with the sometimes major cash to acquire one!
I'm seriously thinking of giving this particular project a go & I'll let you all know if I decide to go for it!
