Howl-O-Haunt

Halloween is my favorite holiday. This blog is all about my Halloween haunt.

I made a reproduction of Polidor the Clowns tombstone. His final act was killing his girlfriend with an axe in his kitchen. He died a few years into his sentence. When his body went unclaimed he was buried in the New Jersey State Prison Cemetery under his prison number. The tombstone is twenty four inches high, eleven inches wide, and three and a half inches thick. It took almost eighty pounds of concrete to fill. The two pieces of rebar stick out eight inches and are used to stake it into the ground. The styrofoam numbers actually floated up so I had to hand carve the numbers into the face with a Dremel and diamond bits.

I finished my Halloween playlist last night, it’s on Spotify under “ Halloween Master 2023” and is ten hours long. I also have a playlist “Hallow Haunts” which is over seventeen hours long and is the list of songs the master was made from. I ran my music all night long to see if the batteries would last all night, at this point it’s been going for over fifteen hours. My set up is as follows two Ryobi 18 volt speakers, two 4ah 18 volt batteries, a Kindle, and a Bluetooth transmitter. The music is being played from the Kindle. The Bluetooth transmitter is plugged into the earphone jack of the Kindle and allows it to stream to two speakers instead of just one. The speakers are both playing the music and powering the Kindle and the transmitter making this setup cordless.

The final walk through. This video was taken at two thirty in the morning November first. I’ve always taken my display down Halloween night.

This dinner scene features my daughter’s and mine uranium glass collection. It’s a new addition to the display. I added it do to its uniqueness and the beautiful way it glows. I’m using a 365nm ultraviolet LED light to show off how it glows.

Halloween Update three,

This is everything I have right now for my witch’s alter. The last photo is everything with added decorations. I still need two knives, an offering dish, a broom, and my wand. The wand I made last year.
