Pumpkinrot: My Newest Addiction!



(Tomorrow is a Q&A spawned by several readers' curiosity about my personal/romantic life...a question answered and more questions welcomed)

I think that video above says it all. Go to YouTube and type in “Pumpkinrot” and even more magic dances before your eyes or go to their site.

Imagine Autumnforest speechless. Well, I am. I feel like I just got a pair of socks from my great aunt for Christmas and then just woke up the next day to realize there’s this dude called Santa who brought me a bike! I was happy with the socks, but I’m ridiculously delirious about the bike!

Pumpkinrot is like Halloween’s Santa.

If you aren’t following this site, you simply don’t like Halloween, don’t like anything creepy and scary, traditional and creative, eerie and spooky. These brilliant Halloween minds create amazing home haunts, scarecrows, videos, the most astonishing Halloween cards I’ve ever seen and I want every single one of them! Pumpkins, carvings, amazingly made models…

I…I…I…cannot find words…

Where has this Santa of Halloween been my whole life? I might have to start a cult of Pumpkinrot, casting spells over pumpkin innards and erecting scraggly scarecrows all over the landscape.

Not many people seem to be able to capture the feel and mood I have about the season. The Johnny Depp version of “Sleepy Hollow” did a fair job, but it was too slick. I need something a bit more rough and barren, dying and brittle, whistling winds and blowing leaves with hints of 1970s Halloween nights and that sickenly sweet smell of candy corn, black birds and burning pumpkin.

All I can say is go to this site and look over everything. It will take you all night. Be sure to check out the “Rot shop” button. I suspect I will be a regular shopper. I can’t tell you how long I’ve wanted Halloween cards that aren’t fucking cute and adorable!

Bless Pumpkinrot and may moviemakers use this site for inspiration. We need more visionaries like this for us Halloween-addicted folks.
