Good afternoon Minions!
Today we have another guest post from our good friend London McGuire! Enjoy!
After watching a great deal of horror movies over the years, my standards for a truly frightening film have been raised considerably. It becomes second nature to dismiss all of Hollywood’s attempts in the genre as meaningless reboots and blood-drenched farces. Perhaps that is why it seems impossible not to take notice of the few films which tell an original story worth hearing, that utilize the best elements of classic horror and are actually scary.
I’ve probably mentioned before that it’s really hot where I live. Halloween, outside of the regular fun it brings, also means that we can go outside and play again. It’s the harvest and the promise of holidays, cold air, wood smoke, and festivals. It’s not just a day or a month; it’s a feeling.

ponds and a general garbage dumping area for the county. We decided to go
camping just off the dirt road next to the strip mine. Our road didn’t
have a name – it was just called Rural Delivery #1. We were all poor,
redneck kids.
Hello there my beloved minions. Tonight we continue Scarydad’s Christmas wish list. Or Holiday wish list. Whatever. You are allowed to buy me things any day, any time and I won’t complain. Anyway, let’s get to it. The first thing to have caught my eye was this offering from Living Dead Dolls: The Big Bad Wolf. What I really like about it is that it’s subtle.
Good evening my beloved. Tonight I will show you how to make floating ghosts for your yard haunt. These are very simple to make and have a very cool floating/flying effect when the wind blows. Here’s how to make them:
