Halloween '09 - Make 'Em Laugh?

I'd like to bring more creepy humor into the decorating this year. I was thinking of prop ideas when it hit me, I already came up with some over at Para Abnormal. Here are some possible cartoon candidates. It would be fun to bring one or two of these to life or create some variation of.

  1. Great idea! I would especially love to see the potted herbs in "real life" :)

  2. The doghouse with the spider is my favorite. I love it so much that if you don't do it, one of these days I will.

    I also vote for the potted herbs, and the slippery when wet. I think they're great gags that you could pull of quickly, without pulling out your hair.

  3. While I'm certain you intend on creating 3D versions of these somehow, I was struck with the memory of those cut-out board "grannie-fannies" that showed up all over gardens in the early 90's. Yep, painted plywood direct transfers... that's my concept.

  4. Also love the potted herbs, I know that mummy and daddy would be a big hit with my kids. All are great.

  5. How very clever!!

    I hate spiders, so the spider in the dog house creeps me out the most....but there are so many ideas!

    Make them all!!! :)

    Cheers!

  6. I would like to see the boys foot sticking out of the pumpkin and tombstone and sat being made into real life. That would be cool. Maybe the spider in the dog house. Maybe it is time for a contest?

  7. That cat climbing post gave me an idea, what about a row of haunted mail boxes? A foot coming out of one with a toe tag, one with a monster inside, etc.
