The Countdown To Halloween Starts Tomorrow!

Make sure you come back tomorrow for the beginning of The Countdown to Halloween!

I think I have some cool stuff planned this year. I have a pretty good collection of old Halloween paper cutout decorations. Some of them belonged to my parents in the 60s and 70s. Some I bought myself in the 80s and 90s. And a bunch of them I've found at thrift stores and flea markets. I'm going to share photos of 31 different cutouts during October.

Plus I'll have a bunch of random Halloween posts all month long.

I hope you enjoy my 2014 Countdown to Halloween!

Is it October Yet?

Happy Harvets!

My wife found this at Wal-Mart yesterday.  Haha!

A Box From Brian Lapsley

Remember the giveaway I had back in July? The winner was Brian Lapsley from the blog Awake Oh Sleeper. After he received the box of stuff I sent him, he turned around and sent me a box of stuff. Isn't that cool? Thanks Brian, I really appreciate it!

Here's what was in the box:

The Frankenstein head will be added to my Halloween decorations, the Heir to the Empire audio cassette will go with my Star Wars stuff and the DVD will go to my son.

A stack of 1994 Marvel Masterpieces trading cards. I have a bunch of these, but I don't remember if I have a set or not. I'll have to sort them out some day.

 COMIC BOOKS! I'll keep some and give some to my brother.

The Cabin in the Woods: The Official Visual Companion. This is a really nice book, but it just doesn't fit in my collection. Look for this book to be a giveaway in October. I talked to Brian about it and he's ok with that. I'd like to see it go to someone who would appreciate it more than me.

Getting Ready......

 Nom Nom Nom!!!

Who's On Facebook Or Twitter?

This post is mainly for bloggers who are participating in the Countdown to Halloween. Does your blog have a Facebook page or Twitter? If it does, I wanna follow you. I can never keep up with all of the October blog posts and since I'm on Facebook all the time (and occasionally Twitter) I thought I'd have a better chance of seeing posts on there. Let me know in the comments below. Thanks!

Countdown to Halloween 2014

Hey kids! It's almost that time again! Time for the annual Countdown to Halloween!

I've been doing a Halloween blog-a-thon for as long as I've been blogging. It's my favorite time of the year. I think I've got it covered this year for at least one post a day during October.

If you're holding a month-long blogging marathon in honor of the Halloween season and would like to be included on the list, see this post here. Though there aren't any official rules, we do suggest trying to post frequently about some aspect of the Halloween season during the month of October, as well as spreading the word about the countdown.

The Quarter Box

It's been almost six months since my last Quarter Box post. I figured it was time for another one. Here's what I've picked up for 25¢ since then.
