Halloween 2012!



Hello minions, creepy lovers and fans of things that go bump in the night!
Read my Halloween jabber after looking at print photos
Halloween art photos and my new thing once a month reborn doll photos!







and reborn doll photos!






First off I have been the ultimate horrible blogger but soon I will be making some video blogs weekly. Right now I want to talk about Halloween of course! It's creeping up pretty fast and I wanted to let you guys know that there will be new art listed weekly in my Etsy shop! If you like you can go to my website www.spookyhollow.net and browse all the photos. If you see something you like I can make you one similar. Now would be a good time to choose allowing me time to get it finished before Halloween! I also wanted to tell you that my prints are back and better then ever! Even brighter and more vivid then before! You can see all of them in my Etsy shop. Here is the link. http://www.etsy.com/shop/SpookyHollow
I'm posting some photos of a few of my prints, Halloween art and my once a month Reborn doll. Reborn you say? Yep lol but only one per month! Each one will have a Halloween outfit all year round along with other little outfits I pack up for the new mom. If you would like a custom reborn you can contact me at folkartist@spookyhollow.net
I also needed to tell you that I reached my friend limit on Facebook but please like my fan page! My fan page link is the 4th picture down on the right side of this blog! Look for the Grimmy holding a pumpkin illustration.
Contest update!
Yep I have a new one! Here is how you can enter.
1. go to my website spookyhollow.net and sign my guestbook! The link is on the upper left side of the page!
2. Become a fan on facebook!
If you do both you get 2 entries.
What are the prizes you say?
A mini Grimmy and a print of your choice!
I will announce the winner October 1st!

I also wanted to say thank you for all the wonderful thoughts and prayer for my son and family. As many of you know my son's girlfriend died while in Greece. Some how she fell from a 5th story balcony and it has been a very long and difficult time. After over a month they did take her off of life support and her funeral is tomorrow. I was overwhelmed by all the emails, posts and good thoughts. Thank you so very much from all of us.
Watch for my video blogs very very soon and again I am sorry about my blog neglect!
Have a great weekend

Thank you, Sale & Spooky News!


Hey all you spooks out there! I am having a sale in my Etsy shop to help my daughter with some medical bills. I listed a Halloween charm necklace, Halloween beaded eye glass holder and a set of 3 Spooky Hollow character clay feather tree ornaments. The prices are very low. You can also buy a print and get one free! Just email me your freebie choice after purchase!  As many of you know my daughter Nicole has been going through some tough medical tests. We finally found out that she has a small tumor on her pituitary gland. I am having a sale to help her out with the cost of her new medicine. I also wanted thank all of you for your good thoughts and prayers. They worked! She does not need surgery as long as it doesn't get any bigger. So thank you from the bottom of our hearts! There will be links to my shops after I am done jabbering! 

I also wanted to let my members know that I have taken a licensing job. I was approached by 2 companies and signed with one of them.  Soon there will be some Spooky Hollow reproductions that I will include in my shops! I'm very excited about it and they have been keeping me VERY busy lol! I can't wait to see the reproductions. EEEK! Lots of Grimmy's! 
That might not be a good thing!

ALSO... There is still time for a custom piece of art before Halloween so if you would like one please email me soon. I can only do so many. Watch for a new email next week! Hugs and haunts, Carmen and Grimmy Ellis!
