Welcome to the recent Halloween webpage

from the Riolo's.

 

We went all out once again this past year.  Unfortunately we didn't have that many kids like last time.

 

My mother dressed as a witch with her neighbor and childhood friend and they stirred a smoking cauldron, filled with bones and insects.  Kids who dared to approach them were told to walk the hallway of doom if they wanted the big bars... that's where I jumped out at them with Alex, my nephew.

 

We pretty much used the same decorations from  last year, however with some new, AWESOME additions.

 

A bride and groom corpse holding a lantern with a skull inside, nets, a lifelike buzzard perched atop a tree's stump, a new graveyard fence and sign, and new and improved tombstones.  For the Halloween sound effects, I used 2 different sound systems this year.  One played ambient effects like crickets, thunder, and wind while the other played screams, movie clips, and haunted sounds.  6 speakers in all were used.

Abby in the graveyard!

There is a note for you lazy parents that don't get out of your car when your kids are trick or treating at the end of the page.

I have a serious bitch for you parents out there.

DO NOT DRIVE AND STAY IN THE CAR WHEN YOUR KIDS ARE GOING DOOR TO DOOR. What if your child gets hurt or doesn't come back?

Are you sure the kid went up to the right door?

IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR!

Your laziness is inexcusable!

Look at the photo below and see what I'm talking about.
