The Kauldron doesn't seem fully "dressed" for the season until her facade is up.

It's funny how an idea I came up with on a whim 10 years ago has become such an integral part of my display. I was too scared to climb the ladder to do the whole house the first year, but each year of haunting has blessed me with new skills and helped me discover abilities I didn't know I had.

After 10 years though, the facade, which I made by laminating plastic scene setters to foam insulation panels with spray adhesive, is starting to show its age. It's faded from its original gray color to a blueish hue, which I personally like, but it's requiring more and more repairs every year (hint: I use Scotch packing tape, although I wish they made a wider, less shiny version. Hint hint πŸ˜‰ ). I'm glad to have it up for at least one more year though. Maybe next year I'll make a new one?? πŸ€”

I say that every year BTW. Lol

Still working on setting up but getting closer. We'll be dark one more night. Because the facade isn't the only thing getting older. πŸ˜‚

**UPDATE & WEATHER STATEMENT**

Ever have one of those weeks??

Well, we certainly are.

We were already running behind schedule for opening night tonight (you name it, it's happened this week) and now we have no power (yes, I paid the bill! Lol). ComEd is working on it and I'm sure it'll be back on soon, but it's delaying things further.

Also, with the upcoming stormy weather and high winds, certain props may be covered or unavailable this weekend.

So while the ghouls would love to see you, please understand we won't be running at 100% this weekend. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Here's hoping next week will be better.

Now, back to waking the dead....

I've always loved Halloween. πŸŽƒ

Making costumes and props. Decorating everything. And of course, all the candy! I loved the spookiness and magic of it. I never liked the scary parts though, because life can be pretty scary on its own.

But this year, I wanted to do more.

I've partnered up with several of my fellow Chicago Haunt Builders to raise funds for Skeletons for St. Jude. Because no bones about it, having cancer when you're a kid is scary enough.

You can donate by using the QR code on the sign or by clicking on the link in the comments.

Thank you & Happy Haunting!! 🧑

The List is out! The List is out!!

Every year the Chicago Haunt Builders compiles a list of the spookiest and most decorated houses in the area. I'm incredibly honored to be a part of this amazingly talented and creative group.

While The Kauldron won't be fully bubbling 'til October 17th, there are many haunts in the area that are already open to tide you over until then. The link to the full list is in the comments, but you can also use the QR codes below for either The List or the Google maps link.

I look forward to scaring you this year!! πŸŽƒ

The creatures have begun to stir from their summer slumbering. And now are lumbering
outside to play in the moonlight.
