There are 3 things I am excited about for this years Wicked Woods Cemetery.
- MASSIVE upgrade to lighting. Last year I started the upgrade and was able to finish it this year. I hope it translates in the atmosphere of the haunt.
- Upgrade in camera. Thanks to M we should (I repeat SHOULD) have some better shots, but I still can't find the perfect settings to truly capture the colors and creepiness. Any hints or critiques out there would be GREATLY appreciated!
- Populations. The Wicked Woods has SEVERAL new residence and that number grows daily! It should be a regular necropolis by All Hallows Eve.
The sad thing is I will be tinkering, changing, moving, and adding to the cemetery every single day till Halloween. Even then we bring out 4 animtronic creatures, 7 dummies, about 30 pumpkins, 20 LED candles, and close to 50 skulls on Halloween night itself so this is a true sneak peek! Hope you enjoyed it cause we are all worn out! Even our newest addition to the family Mr Gizmo.

ReplyDeleteThanks a ton OB!
DeleteLooking good, Ked! Only 30 more days to get everything set up just right :)
ReplyDeleteI will be tinkering every single day too!
DeleteHey Hey....and Happy October to you! I feel your pain this year...I too have never been so far behind. We spent THIS weekend breaking out the apothecary and all the other decor. I always have the house decorated the first weekend in Sept. So I am very disappointed in myself this year. And honestly, like you, I've amassed such a huge collection that it is almost overwhelming. At one point I looked at everything packed in the bins and decided I just didn't have it in me this year. But as I unwrapped a few things at a time, I grew ever more eager to see more, and eventually 2 days and nights later....the house was finally done. The yard will have to wait until after our autumn vacation though.
ReplyDeleteBut your haunt looks incredible! Wonderfully WICKED! And I think the lighting is superb and really adds so much spooky ambiance to the scene. I'd love to see that in person, or be a lucky party guest. And all the attention you guys pay to detail, really makes it special for party goers and trick or treaters. I hope you find some time to slow down and enjoy the season as well! Looking forward to your posts again this year! :o)
