BOO HOO

Halloween is a big deal in my family.And by big deal I don’t just mean we just dress up and listen to creepy music during trick-or-treating.It is a BIG deal.My family puts on an interactive Halloween display. It’s not a haunted house.No one jumps out at you, nothing is really meant to scare you.Some things are meant to be creepy, but for the most part it’s meant to make you smile and laugh.Everything is mechanical and electrical so Halloween usually lasts a good month while we prepare for this.I start watching my scary movies to put me in the mood and we all start brainstorming for new ideas.

THE WEREBABY!

Beware! Lock your cabinets and guard your refrigerators for when the moon is full, the Werebaby strikes!
