I had a friend down today and he was shown my half a coffin that I had been working on. He called me a weirdo and I had too much time on my hands. I then log onto the forum and my wife says "oh you weirdo, you on that forum again" (in a scottish accent).
What the hell is up with some people!!!!

Halloween is Life, My life BOHAHAHAHAHA!
When I was about 11, my Sunday School teacher had a coffin in his basement year 'round. We thought he was the coolest guy ever. I guess what I'm saying, is find an 11-year old!
Seriously, most of the people I know feel that thinking about Halloween outside of the 2 weeks prior is just nuts. They don't think anything about starting to work on Christmas in September, though. I don't know that there is anything that can be done to convince them otherwise.
Gotta love my best friend -- every year, she manages to find me pretty awesome Halloween-themed birthday presents in early August.
I know man, I'm pretty sure none of us here give anybody else any crap about how much they love their favorite holidays--I would appreciate the same courtesy in return, but it doesn't always happen. I am completely solo within my circle of friends (besides y'all) and family, but that's okay I won't let it deter me. My husband calls me a freak, and my best friend sometimes has comments about 'all that weird Halloween stuff I'm into' , but all I can say is, they don't know what they're missin'. We know what we're NOT missing!
In a sense I can see where these boring plaine old people are coming from. Let's face it, you and I both know that Halloween is an unoridanary holiday (which makes it even better) so making props and talking about year round may sound a tad bit funny. But who really cares? I mean I just find it funny that alot of Halloween people wine about other people when it's not really a big deal. I mean we like it because it's fun. We shoulden't have to sit here and explaine our selfes to everyone. It's just a right of passage in away. I guess in a sense I defye the "normal people". There just so judgemental.
I like Halloween because it's fun and it brings change to fall season. It's less stressfull, it doesn't make us weirdos. Were human thats what we do, like stuff for diffren't reasons.
Again all it comes down to in the end is boring and judgemental peeps.

Honey, they are never going to understand us. You see, we're a sub-culture and those outside of our world are never gonna get it. My own mother says she keeps praying to God that one day I'll find something else more suitable. Suitable? Well, Mamma this suits me just fine. Pray for money instead.
Owning and operating a haunted house is one of the things I believe I was meant to do. And when I get too old and too arthritic to have one, my grandchildren will come to Grandma Boo's and decorate her house. When I die, I wanna be dressed in a black gothic dress with a pale face, fangs and something to prop my eyes open to show off my creepy contacts.
Unfortunately it's a typical trait of the human race to fear or hate things and people that are different from the norm and people very rarely celebrate or understand people's obsessions or hobbies unless they are shared.. thus, we're kinda doomed to be perpetually misunderstood by the masses heh
Still, I guess I'm quite lucky as most of my friends think it's cool that I'm really into Halloween and see it as just one part of my quirky persona - best thing is, I'm even starting to rub off on them
My family, (with the exception of my mum who is really into Halloween and is quite eccentric herself) do not understand at all....but then again, they all tease me about most aspects of my life because I'm sort of the black sheep of the family lol, so I'm used to it

I've always been the black sheep of the family and my halloween obsession only solidifies it. My husband and family begrudingly listen to all my ideas and latest prop creations, but I'm pretty much alone in my own little world (which is fine with me).. Although I think I may have a young protege (sp?) in my 6 year old niece, he he he.... everytime she sees my now she has another idea for my Halloween party. I'm hoping she'll carry on my legacy
Someone commented this past weekend "She's already thinking about Halloween?" which makes me think: 1. if he only knew and 2, people have no idea the time and thought and prep we all put into our events.
Why Do they not understand
?
) about props I'm working on... and they don't seem to just be humoring me.
