Darkrose Manor (2010)

Truly inspiring layout from Darkrose Manor.  So many natural elements, so much overgrowth.  Hard to imagine this being in the middle of a residential neighborhood... it looks like it's in the middle of the woods!  There is just an overwhelming amount of detail to take in.  

Full album here.  Take a look at the night photos album for 2010 as well.

Be sure to visit the Darkrose Manor blog and their website too!

Katie Pumpkinhead's Pumpkin Patch

So, right after publishing the previous blog post about Winter, I realized that the photographer of the photo I included, Katie, has a blog of her own. Not only that, but she made a fantastic write up about her own thoughts about Winter and snow, and how they fit in to the Halloween aesthetic. 

I highly recommend you go read her post.  She dives deeper into Winter's power and the beauty that lies in the danger it brings.  And while you're at it, subscribe to her blog!

Pumpkinrot Returns

Still compiling this year's yard haunt photos, but first I have to share some exiting news:

Pumpkinrot has once again posted to his blog!  Yesterday, on Halloween, he shared photos of his brand new display for 2021: "SAMHAIN"

Thematically, the display feels primitive and folky; A very sincere Halloween display (the title is "Samhain" after all)

I hope this is an indication of Rot's "regularly-scheduled" blog posts making a comeback, and a continuation of annual displays.  But even if not, it certainly has cemented Halloween 2021 as the best in recent memory for me.  I know I'm not alone when I say that I am relieved to hear from Rot.

Click Here to view Rot's 2021 display, or here to go to his blog's homepage.  Shoutout to Adam at The Great Pumpkin Project for breaking the news to me this morning!

Incredible work as always, Rot.  The rest of your followers and I wish you well!
