Looking Ahead to Halloween 2010

For 2010 I plan continue and finish my witch's cauldron but instead of a animatronic Stirring Witch prop I'm planning on doing up a witch costume with mask and hands so that a scare actor can mimic the mechanical movements of the classic stirring witch but when the TOTs get close she can come to life with a scare and interact with them. "Come closer my dearies so I can eat you!" sort of thing. Should be fun and it means there's already one prop off my build list! The mask I got for the witch is the awesome Cackle mask from Darkside Studios. Really great classical witch.

The big project for 2010 will be a full size Mausoleum. Given that my yard is not that big I'm planning on only making a 2 sided structure with a 1/2 roof. Only that which will be visible will be built, the back of the structure will be covered in black fabric to hide the fact there is nothing there. I'll build a front and one side that will be placed on an angle in the yard facing the walkway. I'm really looking forward to this as it will be my largest project yet and will really be a focal point for the cemetery. Although I have to design it with an eye to storage because I am only doing 2 sides I can go more elaborate and larger than I would if I was building a complete structure. Part of the design will be a way to incorporate my skeleton corpse as a freestanding figure.

I'll again try and finish up or fix projects from previous years. Among the list of things to do are:

• FINISH CEMETERY FENCE!
• mausoleum facade
• witch's cauldron
• fix the werewolf
• finish the giant spider's face
• finish wiper motor grave grabber
• freestanding shiatsu zombie?
