🎃 1 Day Until Halloween 🎃















P.J. Soles, Nancy Kyes (Loomis), and Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween 1978





The credit for this image goes to True Dough although I removed a glowing neon sign off the steeple with an eraser editor. It's spooky, I'll add it to this years collection!

It looks like someone added the glowing neon cross sign to the steeple at some point.


I'm looking at the photo and thinking how unique it is but the neon just didn't go with it.


When I used the eraser editor to remove the neon cross, the steeple was 100% there and so I assume someone had added it.


Never fear, Niagara is here!

I wish I had been aware of this at the time. It falls within your countdown period and makes purrfect sense!

I was a day late posting this image into the countdown but I did place it in the Oct. 28th countdown.




I don't really keep track of anything that's "National fill in the blank Day". I have a hard enough time organizing photos and marking what ones I already displayed. lol

My guess it's because I caregive for senior citizens.


It doesn't help that I'm into vintage and vintage style items either.


You don't have to bow but I certainly appreciate your compliment.

I remember Jamie Lee saying in an interview that John Carpenter called her after a few days of filming had started and she thought she was being fired when he called.


John actually called her to tell her that she was doing a great job. Jamie Lee was nervous and unsure of herself and I think this is the boost that she needed.


Have fun with the pumpkin carving!


You're welcome, Cloud Passing.
