Halloween

[Dana Jean]

Here is my latest wire man. I'm not done and really not satisfied. It may look better farther into the yard. I want to do a burning man with fan underneath blowing fabric all over lit from within like those fake kettle things. Anyway, this turned out cheesier than I anticipated.

The lighted wire man was supposed to be an homage to Galaxy being from the old Outer Limits TV program but it went haywire. I doubt I will have time to do burning man this year but it's the one that intrigues me most so maybe next year. I bought these guys from a buddy who has the antique store I buy vintage horror stuff for my collection- Antiquesoffthesquarems.com. It feels like cheating not to make but they were such a sweet couple. Just look at the love in those sockets.

While taking them home I propped the fellow up and turned his head at those waiting at intersections with my hand on his hat brim from behind. The looks were priceless. Anyway, next year I will add to my Doc Zombie outfit with a brain made from a jello mold I paint and fit into the torn surgical cap. I love Halloween.
This pic was where we hid out on the trail to pounce. It was lit by tiki torches on each side. A truely spooky gauntlet. I almost felt sorry for them.
