I just had this emailed to me, and while all those spider legs give me the heebie jeebies, it makes me smile.

Clotted and Curdled Coagulum

Tried something a little different with this bottle. It’s topped with a polymer clay sculpted claw, painted with acrylics.

The Giveaway is for one of my Skull Book Lights: What arcane tome is this? Perfect for a cluttered spell crafter’s desk or witches bookshelf, this ancient tome with a aged skull and battery operated flickering tea light candle is nice for anytime or your Halloween display.

FrightFest BC’s Halloween in August

Ben and Sean's scene

For the past few years Frightfest BC has been taking part in a Halloween theme weekend at the Fort Langley Campground.

Our weekend consists of a few quick make and takes, and creating a haunted house for the public, a zombie walk through town followed by a stop at the Fort Pub for refreshments.

Members arrive from all over BC and Alberta and even Washington, their vehicles stuffed full of props. Everyone helps out and by Saturday afternoon we have a haunt full of actors, sound, and lighting.

Exhausting but so fun!!
Here are a few pictures from this years haunt.
