I found this video to be really cool as Halloween is just around the corner. Each year there are less and less creative houses for the kids on Halloween - public elementary schools are quickly doing away with costume parades in fear of offending someone. This used to be a great holiday and I think we need to get it back there - again, because it can be such a great time for a kid.

Any way, there is simply a vid and the creators name. The concept seems simple enough, almost like a high def super thin tv panel instead of his window. Some of his graphics are pretty good and I can only imagine the look on my kids faces when we round the corner to see this house...

The kids LOVEDIT! My 13 year old said he would just get a lawn chair and hang out in his front yard. That was very cool, thanks and Happy Halloween!

Thats cool, but i wonder if its just done in after effects or something like that and not actually in the window? I hope its not because i like to do that to my home as my wife and i put on a mini spook house every Halloween.

Mark Gervais is a guy who makes Hallowindows -- creepy animations you project on your window in lieu of Halloween decorations. If you happen to have a projector, there's no question that a Hallowindow will make you the toast of the cul-de-sac. Kids will ooh and ahh, and then ooh again they'll be so impressed. You'll be rivaled only by the guy who gives out full size candy bars, but who knows? In these tough financial times, maybe this year he'll switch to bite-size. Then you'll definitely be the king of the neighborhood.

Here is more info on the creator - they are just projections - takes away some of the "wow" factor, but the visuals remain the same - awesome! And if you have a projector - you can have Hallowindows!
