Had my usual Halloween party on Saturday to which we had 17 guests. Some of the carved pumpkis are shown below as is the fcentral display in the living room. Not surprisngly the pumpkin of Spike fromthe film 'Gremlins' won, narrowly beating Spiderman (which had Venom on its reverse)
We had a couple of hours to kill yesterday before collecting a friend, so happened across, and thouroughly enjoyed, doing a Halloween Scavenger Hunt in Folkestone's Old High Street, looking for cats, ghosts with letters on them to spell out a seasonal word, and ingredients for a witch's cauldron. Well done 'Folkestone Rocks' shop for providng the entertainment. We're looking forward to next year's hunt...
I must admit I completely forgot to visit this local store until Saturday 30th by which time most of their Halloween stock would have been sold. To be honest I've never bought anything from their Halloween offerings to add to my collection, although this year it did appear from what was left that there were some different and more interesting items. Apart from the biggish figures / decorations in the first photo, in the second photo theire were the remains of more craft relatied items such as Halloween stencils and pumpkins and giant eyes that could be made, for example by crocheting.
