A Few More of My Favorite Halloweeny Things



Ghosts, bats, and candy corn,
Skulls, owls, and flowers,

 

Leaves, beads, and spiders
And witches with powers.


Owls in the moonlight
On silent wings,


These are a few of my favorite things...

Up for auction on ebay right now!

There's a Witch Outside My Window


by Kenn Nesbitt


There's a witch outside my window and she will not go away.
There's a gremlin on my doorstep and I think he's there to stay.


There's a troll demanding candy and a mummy wanting sweets.
There's a ghost, a ghoul, a goblin and they're clamoring for treats.



And as if that weren't enough to be considered rather shocking.
A vampire rang my doorbell and the bogeyman is knocking.


My abode is now surrounded by the recently deceased,
They're in search of gum and chocolate on which they plan to feast.



It's the strangest situtation that I think I've ever seen.
How I wish they'd go away and just come back on Halloween.



The witch outside the sindow bracelet is up for auction on eBay this week.

Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
Skeletons, spirits and haunts.
It's a Halloween sale:
A nickel a pail
For skeletons, spirits and haunts.

Skeletons, spirits and haunts,
More than most anyone wants.
Will you pay for a shock,
'Cause we're quite overstocked
On skeletons, spirits and haunts.

Halloween: The Black and White Film Classic

Long before the Jasons and Halloween 3s, there were the classic horror films: Frankenstein, Dracula, The Werewolf, The Mummy... And all those were in glorious Black and White.

The characters on this bracelet come from a lesser-known Black and White classic horror film: Dance Hall of the Darned.  Directed by G. Goyle, the film followed the lives of a cast of bats, skeletons, black cats, ghosts, spiders, scarecrows, jack o' lanterns, witches, and a lone owl, all of whom were the last chosen as partners during dancing class.

After spending too much time in their wooden chairs, feeling like wallflowers, they rose up to create their own dance steps: the Batusi, the Spider Shake, Skeleton Salsa, the Black Cat Bump, the Witchy Watusi, the Jack o' Lantern Jerk, and an Owl-ish version of YMCA.

They took their dance act on the road, appearing after hours at such venues as The Crypt, Gus' Graveyard, and The Vindow Viper Room.

It became the feel-good B&W Halloween film of all time, thus losing any large following it might built over time.

Bid now and you'll get:

An entire dance troupe of skeletons, skulls, and bones
