Lynn, our house is a 2-story colonial like your yellow house. It's gray now, but when we moved in it was yellow. Not haunted, though. Looks great. Thanks for sharing,
Paul

Thanks Paul, cool page! I love the original movie monsters. It looks like Lionel is out of stock, but I'll keep an eye out for some.

Lynn, I just noticed the witch flying away on the broom! LOVE IT! :)

Thanks everyone, I love making the Halloween houses. Some of the figures are actually miniature tree ornaments I have collected over the years and some of the ghost I made myself, simple enough with Sculpty. Brian, I purchased the Lionel figures from Pacific Western Rail Service http://www.pacific-western-rail.com/ann ... hp?ID=6883 I believe they have them still in stock!
