Cake of Horrors....

We can't forget it's also the birthday of my love, the Halloween child <3 Let them eat cake! A deliciously, horrrrrific, circus cake!! I want to make it as a circus grave yard, with chocolate powder as grave yard dust and creepy old, tilted, tomb stones spread around on the cake. I'll add some additional creepiness with my hand painted zombie clowns coming up from their graves.. I'm sure it will be totally unresistable for your sweet tooth... Rest in peace! Moooohahahahaahha

Freaky Arrival...

Yeeeaaahhiiii!!! The props has arrived, Christmas and birthday at the same time!! Unwrapping the gory goods is just as exciting every year..:) Like last year, we got our props from Halloween Asylum. Good prices and a much better assortment than we find in the stores here! Since we're doing the Freak Show this year, we will be doing a circus themed decoration. We will be reusing old props, making what ever we can and search the shops till we get that right feel to our place;) I've been shopping some cool, reproduced, vintage circus posters from Ebay, for the walls in the hallway and outside. I also found some vintage looking popcorn bags, so everyone can have their own lil' pop corn bag of horror.. I'm planning to mix in a few "chopped of "surprises... But before you reach for that popcorn people, a gentle warning from me; watch ya sticky, little fingers..!!

Circus of Horrors

Darker Times Approaching..

Yaaaaaawn...

I can feel my inner ghoul is scrambeling about and waking up, as the leaves turn yellow and fall to the ground... My favourite time of the year is finally here, dark and devious All Hallows Eve;) As every year me and my man has been spending the last few weeks thinking out what and how, and finding the right props to set the scenes for our theme of the year. This year we will have a good, old fashion Carnival Freak Show going on in our tiny appartment. I think it will be a funny theme to do! We are still throwing ideas and  thinkering out everything we'll need. I think we have some good ideas to scene setters and how to get that circus feel to the place. Some things has been bought and is on it's way over the pond from the US. Can't wait to get started, making props and to slowly getting it all up:) ahah Till we get it all right and our small chattauw of darkness, once again rises from the dust.. Changing out "homy" and "cozy", to look more like a scene from a rather scary movie, or a bad dream of the kind that you really don't want to remember... I don't know why I love it so much, but to me it could be a touch of Halloween all year, and that would be just perfect:) lol

Post Halloween Vacuum...

I'm in a bit of a vacuum right now, Halloween is over for this time and all our scary projects too.. Hmmmm or are they? We have decided to work a bit on props and stuff all year around. Hmmm and isn't it just an excellent hobby? Mooohahahha!! Making ghouls and scary props can be quite cozy, believe it or not and we have really fun doing it:) We've been talking some more about starting up a haunted house, like one of those that you find in the U.S... I think it's an awsome idea, but it's still just an idea. Clearly Halloween is about to hit off in Norway, if it hasn't allready.. I saw a huge difference from last year, people seemed to be much more into it this year. The stores were quite busy, full of people shopping Halloween stuff. Also we noticed a change when we went out, clearly more people had dressed up and seemed to be coming from a Halloween party this year. We stumbled down to Dr. Jeckyll's after midnight some time, a bar down town with that cozy Halloween theme all year around style to it;) We met everything from scary pirates, Draculas to full rabbit costumes in there, I'm very pleased to find that it finally seems to be picking up here! haha

Our Halloween party went great!!:) Everyone seemed very pleased with our grusome decoration in our Cabinet Of Death! haha My creepy, little spidercakes went rather well, they looked quite alive as my sister pointed out. Really easy to make and something I will have on the menu for next year too;) I've been taking a few photos of some of the props and decoration we had up in the hallway, unfortunately I didn't have time to take any of the the gory, headless guy outside, but I know someone did.. I'll add it together with photos from inside our Cabinet of Death later on, so please do check in again for more haunting photos;)

Also I have to add my Marie Antoinette costume won forst prize this year, very flattered but I WASN'T SUPPOSED TO WIN!! ahah We were supposed to hand it out to one of our guests, but wasn't happening...:/

Ballerina moods

I was never one of those girls who wanted to be a ballerina as a kid, I was more of a tomboy climbing trees and getting dirty.. It's a bit ironic to me to dress up as a ballerina as it was never in my dreams, but a bloody ballerina feel like a good option though;) haha Hmmm come to think about it, I like to do pirouettes and ballerina moves on the floor when I'm in the mood, maybe I do have a little ballerina in me after all...
