Linda Gottman’s Halloween Scrapbooks

So I just got back  home where all my scrapbooks are currently residing, and I wanted to add my aunt’s hard work to my site to be seen as well!

The work I am showing here is strictly Halloween….but that’s because I am kinda obsessed with it!   So every year for the past 6-7 years I have gone all out, and thrown a haunted house.  These scrapbooks have documented a lot of it.

Because there are literally hundreds of pages, I am only showing you the ones that are most representative, most fun, and most unique.

So without further adieu, here come the ghouls!

This was from when I was a kid….12 I think….pre-haunted house, but not pre-Halloween fun!

This is the first year we really started getting into it….I didn’t build a haunted house that year, but we dressed up as authentic pirates and terrorized the neighborhood! (I really pride myself on my costume’s authenticity and never ever just buy one from a party store!)

The story line here is all Linda Gottman’s idea!

h48 so there are these 3 pirates.

h47Two are brother and sister. The third is some scallywag named Pirate Dude Charles.

h43 And they were a happy trio.

h45And a fearsome brood!

h42 Until betrayal was discovered!h41 Little Eye- Big Eye attacked Pirate Dude but lost. Not wanting to be left out, Pirate Princess killed Pirate Dude.

But this was a raucous bunch, and death did not keep them from fighting…they came back as undead pirates…Continuously killing each other.

Until they had a thought! Let’s kill the civilians….
