DI Treasures Halloween Mascot 2017
Last year's mascot was the Playmobil Stilt Ghost. This year I am happy to introduce The Crazy Dancin' Mummy! I found this little scamp at my local Family Dollar.
This year's Family Dollar Halloween solar dancers also include a Vampire, Witch, and Howlin' Werewolf. That mummy dude is by far the best of the bunch, and just $1!

Isn't he just ADORABLE!

Tombstone Corners: 2016 Buildings
Sadly, The Tombstone Corners Halloween village series saw no new minifigures this year. There were at least a few interesting buildings to add to the village, some of the best in fact.
First off, let's get this out of the way. There were some figures, but they're freaking giant! They're okay I guess, but I want residents that are at least close in scale to the buildings.

BOO SCHOOL
This is just what the village needed! The undead need a good education if they expect to become a successful detriment to society. They are very strict about punctuality and have looked out that poor ghost. School starts promptly at 11pm, and the doors have been ghost-proofed, no sneaking in by phasing through.
DOOM HOUSE
Not really much to say about this one. It's a house. I like the purple roof.
TOMBSTONE CORNERS HOTEL
Another village staple. The living check in, and they check out dead. The giant purple spider is a nice touch and I love the orange roof! Previous buildings were all pretty bland.
RIP Town Hall
Great new building to add to the graveyard district of Tombstone Corners. Situated next to the Ghost Train Station and in front of the Village Mortuary. Reaper loves chilling on the roof.
BONE BRIDGE
Similar in style to the bone gazebo, you gotta have a bone bridge! No one wants to walk on all that pesky grass. Residents actually fit on the bridge, unlike the gazebo which is a bit too small.
PUMPKIN WITCH GATE
Not a bad addition, I especially like the Jack-o-lantern. Sadly didn't come with matching stone walls. The previous iron gate matches the iron fences better.
ORANGE "OUT" HOUSE
Not stay out, just "OUT". SPOOOOOOOKY! LOL! "OUT" is in, in Tombstone Corners! Mr. and Mrs. Monster love to hang outside their home all night.
And there's another way out...
Keeping up with the Jones's dark "OUT" house from a previous line up.
Mr. and Mrs. Witch Pumpkin Home
The clear winner! Look at this thing, it's perfect! I wanna live in a giant pumpkin!
There's even a nice side entrance. :)
Does anyone else have a Halloween village? What do you think of Tombstone Corners this year? Any tips on making my village spookier/cooler?

Tombstone Corners: It Takes A Village To Raise The Dead
Luckily, this year /i came across the Tombstone Corners series are they were unboxing them, so I have a nice checklist reference for anyone looking to complete the collection.
Some of these are just so out of scale that they didn't fit into the village very well, but they still make for nice accent pieces elsewhere.
And finally, for your viewing pleasure, the complete Halloween village!
