October 1 and the hauntings begin in LA!

The first of the haunting decorations went up yesterday in my hood!

The first of the haunting decorations went up yesterday in my 'hood!

Its started.  The great push towards the All Hallows Eve party on 10/31.  30 days away and people are beginning to start their decorating to celebrate the big event.  I *think* this year I’m taking a few of my oldest kids and a few friends to weho to enjoy the parade – I still think they have the most jubilant celebration of the day in LA.  Agree?

I’m working on a few more of the ” LA boo-stories” that I started last year.  Am researching the Brand Library and Clifton Middle School to name a few.  If there are others in your corner of LA that need attention let me know.

Of course if you want up the minute, almost daily haunting stuff in LA visit our own David Markland’s Creepy LA.

Pic by me grabbed on my morning rounds getting the kidlets to school.

    Yes, that McCain/Palin sign is terrifying!

    lol – I almost made this a "spot the scariest item" but decided to keep it an alertness test. You win.

    it took me a while to see that there were Halloween decorations besides the sign.

    Very festive with the Halloween decorations. Check out all the tombstones on the lawn.

    Hahahaha. I’m so terrified by the idea of Sarah "Dinosaurs and Humans Lived Together" Palin being in charge of our nuclear arsenal that I didn’t even realize there were actual Halloween decorations until I read the comments.

    I’m not sure it that was intentional, but it is hilarious! And scary!

    This house could use a few moose heads and dead Russians.

    The spiders acutally look relatively normal, compared to the sign…

    actually it was harder to find a spider than the sign in my corner of la

    "I’m John McCain, and I approve these Halloween decorations."

    I do have to admit (even beyond the sign) Halloween is possibly the best holiday around. :)

    I didn’t even see the spiders until I started reading the comments. Liberal old me focused straight on the McCain/Palin sign.

    funny how people don’t even notice the spiders. I thought that every morning, when Californians wake up, one of the first things they do, is look outside to see if there are any giant spiders hanging around. and if there are, you gotta go up to them and ask, ‘what are you doing here?’ and if they can’t give you a good reason, it’s our responsibility to say, you know, ’shoo! get back over there!’
