While some people spend a lot of time preparing their Halloween costume and getting into the crafty side, others don’t have time and have to get theirs in the local store. Now, that can go either way: you can look like a cheap character of one of Ed Wood’s movies, or you can rock the [...]

OK this year I am super excited about Halloween, I mean I’m usually excited about Halloween but now I have more reason. This year I will have a boyfriend to dress up! I was never into the whole barbie or Cindy scene as a child, give me a truck or combine harvester and I had [...]
There are many people who feel that anything worth doing in this world must involve power tools. The mythical god of all these fine individuals has to be Tool-Time Tim.

Free candy, outlandish costumes and out-there cocktails aside, Halloween is really all about the spirit of getting spooked out, and providing spookiness unto others. What better way to give the gift of ghost, other than setting up your very own haunted house?
