Here is our graveyard for 2000. This was our first year with the fencing, coffins, skeletons, and tombstones.
The pvc fence is made from directions from THE MONSTER LIST OF HALLOWEEN LINKS- The fence was very labor intensive and time consuming, but it made a great effect and gave the boundries for the TOTS.
The tombstones all were made of blue insulation foam from Home Depot cut with a knife, glued together with liquid nail adhesive [to make them thicker], and carved with a dremel with a router attatchment. I added skeletons and a raven on Edgar's tombstone.
The ghoul in the bucket is a mask on an oscillating fan and a little weed fabric hot glued on a nursery pot. Every now and then it would get stuck, and I'd have to give it a nudge to get going again.
These are assorted cemetery props from 2000. The corpse in the coffin is a plastic body with a Bucky skull head. He has behind him
a Shiatsu massager- one with the 2 balls that massage your neck. I bought it at a thrift store right before halloween and connected [with wire] 1 ball to his head and the other to his chest. The massager was behind him.
It gave a subtle movement - very creepy !
