For me, the Fall has to be my favorite time of year. The smell of autumn, the rustic colored leaves, and of course my favorite holiday...HALLOWE'EN! Over at the Sketch Tavern (see above image) we have a spooky animation that Cale Atkinson and I cooked up in the cauldron.
I'm extremely excited this year too, as I get to take my beautiful daughter out to a few houses for tricks or treats. I'll post up pictures of my little Witch (her costume) after All Hallows Eve. But until then, here's a haunted ritual I started 3 yrs ago. Every year I do a pic based on one of my favorite movies ever, Ghostbusters. Until next time, happy haunts!
