Halloween '09 Idea Gears Are Spinning

One of the driving forces behind my dedication to getting the garage into real workshop shape is my fun in prepping for October. I'm looking forward to getting started very early to actually make happen some of the ideas I've hoped to do in the past.

Thanks to the web, a new layer of Halloween fun was added last year, being involved in blog countdowns and discovering so many great websites dedicated to all things Halloween and yard haunting.

I had a thought today about creating a new blog dedicated to just my October prepping. Maybe starting 100 days away from the 31st? Anyone out there think this a good idea? I'm sort of torn...I also like keeping this blog alive with Halloween stuff from time to time, especially closer to the season.

  1. Of course its a good idea.
    When is another Halloween blog not a good idea?! :D

  2. I understand the impulse, but I think you should keep it here on your regular blog. I think all of your posts, even the non-Halloween ones all seem to tie back into Halloween anyway.

    I'm starting to think about what to do for Halloween this year as well. I've got a new house with new possibilities, and unfortunately during my move I had to trash a few props such as my life-sized ghosts and my nosferatu, so I have gaps to fill.

  3. Yeah I would agree to keep it here as well.

  4. Well, I started reading this blog because of the Halloween stuff you posted here last year, so either way works for me. I have mine separate, but that's just because my other blogs have *nothing* to do with Halloween, while yours seems to tie in nicely here.

    I think the big question is, do you want to try to keep up with new content for two blogs?

  5. Why not just create a "Halloween" category on this blog, so interested readers can filter for those posts if they want?

  6. You might be spreading yourself too thin if you create a new blog. Is there enough content to keep both blogs going?

    I'm starting to think about Halloween this year, too. My wall illusion was too successful for its own good, so I'll have to change my strategy for this year.

  7. I think leaving it on this page would be best. You can always throw in a non-Halloween related one in between.

  8. I'm for keeping your Halloween stuff here and just labeling/tagging the posts with "halloween."

  9. I started following your blog for the Halloween side also. But I always enjoy your other posts.

    But another Halloween blog is fine with me. :)

    Cheers!
