If I was ever forced to choose between Halloween and my dearest friend, you’d understand, right?

Free Candy – Begging For Candy
Sometimes I wonder if my radicalized, maniacal, compulsive, fanatical, and twisted obsession with Halloween is really just about the free candy.

Halloween 2016
2016 was a great year for prop building at The Never Moor.
This year we focused on adding more tombstones to our graveyard since our new home’s yard is three times the size of our old yard. We added about 20 new tombstones and props to our haunt. My kids really helped me A LOT (you’ll see in the video). Our costume theme for this year were characters from the Harry Potter books/movies.
Thank you to Jason Hogan, another member of the Rocky Mountain Haunters, for giving us 14 tombstone blanks. We covered and sealed the foam blanks with Stucco Patch, then painted with gray exterior primer, and then flat black and white exterior paint. My wife cut vinyl epitaphs with her Silhouette that turned out amazing.

Mood Ring – Begging For Candy
I was thinking of buying a Mood Ring, but I figured mine would just stay black all the time.
Pumpkin PATCH and the Boo Brothers – Singing Pumpkin Animations
I won a Free singing pumpkin animation today on Facebook! I chose “Dead Man’s Party” to add to the other 8 animations that we have for our Pumpkin PATCH and the Boo Brothers singing pumpkin concert.
Since the Halloween of 2013 we have included these singing pumpkins in our graveyard haunt. I often get asked if I animated them. I am not the animator, but John Nielson who manages the Halloween Fun and Christmas Magic Facebook page IS the talented animator behind the Disneyesque Singing Pumpkins that I use. He also has Singing Snowman animations and animations that you can project onto a wall, your garage door, or other flat surfaces. Check out his website and his Facebook page to find out how you can add your own singing pumpkin concert to your Halloween haunt.
Halloween 2015
The Never Moor has some new digs. We moved into our new home this year. We didn’t add any new props, other than the new house. Happy Halloween!
The Never Moor’s New Digs
We moved into our new home in May of this year. The Never Moor Halloween Graveyard Haunt has a new, blank canvas to work with. We hope you’ll come by on Halloween night to see the new digs. Pun intended.

Halloween Savant – Begging For Candy
I have a bunch of Halloween stuff in my room that I keep out all year long. If I saw someone doing that with Christmas stuff, I’d think they were completely nuts.
I’m not sure if that makes me a hypocrite or a Halloween savant.
Halloween by Robert Burns
Upon that night, when fairies light
On Cassilis Downans dance,
Or over the lays, in splendid blaze,
On sprightly horses prance;
Or for Colean the route is taken,
Beneath the moon’s pale beams;
There, up the cove, to stray and rove,
Among the rocks and streams
To sport that night.
Among the bonny winding banks,
Where the river Doon runs clear,
Where Bruce once ruled the martial ranks,
And shook his Carrick spear,
Some merry, friendly, country-folks,
Together did convene,
To burn their nuts, and pile their shocks of wheat,
And have their Halloween
Full of fun that night.
