Hey, did you use these... I didn't see any pics of you with any mask on? I almost bought a devil like mask this year, but did what you saw... my simple messy makeup. I think I may purchase the devil one for next year... do the bald red devil one..that is great!

Was it hard to apply?

Some pics of my hood

http://community.webshots.com/album/555288729EmmacH Just 8 of them, that's all I could find time for! So sad. My wife got a little bit of video of the fog machine working before it crapped out. But I can't seem to get it uploaded right now. Will post back. Let me know how good or bad my makeup job w...

You know, if it weren't for the fact that one of the top 10 houses in the US is located in my city (fremont, CA), I'd want to do the same thing!! Sadly, I didn't even make it over there.. never have seen it, but supposedly very good. There's another guy that lives a few miles away that does the same...

Well not quite dumped, more like the honeymoon is over sort of thing.:wink: I am very thankful though..it started to rain tonight! Missed it by a day, thankfully. They should move halloween up to August, so we all have a good chance of low wind and great weather. And I still say it should be a week ...

I know exactly what you mean..despite my let downs with the fogger and strobe, I had a number of kids claim my house was very kewl and scary, several parents thanked me for keeping the halloween spirit, and even got some requests for pictures with me done up in my makeup. I did such a crappy job ont...

Great job! How many foggers, what brand/wattage, and did you use chillers at all? If you read my earlier post.. my 1200watt crapped out just before dark. I was so bummed. Spent like $60 on the fogger, $50 on the chiller, and another $30 on dry ice and ice to make it work. Worse, the wind was blowing...

Nice! At least your fog chiller worked! I packed mine with dry ice and the damn fogger gave out before dark. :( So pissed off. Need to buy a really good one.

Sorry to hear you were so sick and glad you are better. I wish we had more kids. I think I get the most fun out of the older kids that get scared to come up the path way. If my dang fog machine was working, I would have had fog covering the path way which would have really set the mood. Most of the ...

What's up for Halloween 2007?

Alright, in my other post I described the woes I had this year, but mostly pretty fun and for the most part things turned out alright. I am thinking the high output 1200watt fogger for $60 shipped was a super cheap unit, because it gave out so fast. So, for next year, I am sorta thinking a 1700watt ...

Almost, but not quite happy with the end result...

Well, it came, and went. Man, it is amazing how much time goes into setting things up, all for a couple of hours of fun! We were setting up stuff for the kids party up until the last minute, heck, I didn't put my make-up on until after the kids alreayd saw me. Well, I am most bummed though. The fog ...

Well, first thing, unless you have a 1000 watt or better fogger, your not going to get the output push to go more than about 5 feet or so. Secondly, you'll want to run it through a chiller to keep it low to the ground to spread it out, otherwise it will rise pretty fast right out of the fogger. Wors...
