Halloween 2009 Decorations - Nightmare Before X-mas

This is what we did for Halloween this year, enjoy...

Video contains the following decorations:

  • Disneyland Haunted Mansion inspired gravestones, with quirky phrases, even one simpsons nod
  • Disneyland Haunted Mansion inspired Lenticular Lens photo, custom made (see other video)
  • Rear projected video of moon with clouds and Jack face (using a shower curtain and a toy projector)
  • Handmade and painted Nightmare Before Christmas hill, with headless Jack (head from disneyland)
  • Handmade burlap Oogie Boogie costume (me), made by my wife and her grandmother (this scared pretty much everyone, as I stood still, and then as people came up to the door, I jumped out and scared them)
  • Sally (my wife)
  • Jack Crossing sign (probably can't see this)
  • Mickey light-up blow-up pumpkin
  • Mickey carved pumpkin light
  • 3 x 100 watt flood lamps (2 blues, 1 amber), 4 strobe lights, purple light-up tree, 6 orange light-up branches
  • Haunted Realty sign
  • Fog chiller, built with 3/4 size garbage can, and 20 feet of dryer duct, and 9 lb's of ice (this thing worked very well)
  • Bubble fogger (surprisingly the biggest hit with kids and adults)
  • Tekky Toys Flying ghost (batteries died, so it wasn't moving much)
  • ratcheting light-up vampire

Plans for next year

  • Flying zero dog (the flying ghost will be converted into zero)
  • Zero doghouse/gravestone
  • Blacklights and more black light reactive treatments (Oogie Boogie costume, hill, and jack cutout
