I was impressed with many things at Spirit Halloween Superstore this year. The life size Frankenstein, Regan from The Exorcist and Scream killer were fun, and the giant black mug I picked up, with "Vampire Blood" written on the side, is very enjoyable, indeed.
But there is something about these tombstones that appeal to me. On my first trip, I made a note to come back for them on a later visit.
When I went to pick them up, the only thing that prevented me from doing so is the fact that the backs of these stones aren't painted. Though they easily could be painted, and also very well could be placed in an area of my cemetery that wouldn't show the blank white back, the fact these stones seemed unfinished stopped me from picking them up-- at least for now. I may give in and buy one or both later on (although the $24.99 price tag is a bit steep.) Whatever complaints I may have about the unfinished quality of the backs, I want to stress that I remain fascinated and absolutely impressed with these designs, and the overall product. The imagery-- the angels, the angel of death, the weeping shrouded figure-- is original for Spirit, and executed wonderfully.

Spirit, soon...
Anyone spotted this sign of the season yet? I do believe they'll begin cropping up around here soon, in time for the harvest.
The store locator on their website lists locations for this year, but with no definite opening dates other than "Opening Soon!"
Hopefully, the wait will not be too long. Has anyone seen any signs of a store yet?
