After hearing about the tornado warnings and cancellation of trick or treating, I was afraid to find out what would become of your 2013 display. Based on these photos and video, my fears died down much like those strong winds did.
I loved seeing Undead Ted watching over the tombstones. A fitting place for him, on that giant pumpkin! All your jack o' lanterns have interesting locations and positions. Some on hay bales, some on pumpkin hangers. I love that. You're good at making little "scenes." Especially the witches lair!
I'm really glad you posted a walk-through video too (cool sound effects). This really helps us understand the size and layout of the whole display. The lights, the sentinels, the cauldrons, the fog, the boarded windows, the potions... good gourd, if this doesn't scream classic Halloween, I don't know what does.
And how about that new fence? It was born out of a need to protect your pumpkins from thieving vandals, but it has become a great feature for your display. The lights on the fence posts look great and it really helps guide your visitors around the right path. Ensuring they can look at every glorious pumpkin along the way.
I'm looking at more of the carving photos and videos lately because... well, with Christmas behind us now and 2014 starting, it's time for me to get inspired and start working on the next season of ZP!
Amanda, thanks for all you to do provide others with Halloween fun and inspiration. And thanks for the plug for ZP, both at the end of your video, and in the carved logo pumpkin!
