I love Halloween so much, I start thinking about my next years costume as soon as one ends. The Hallowindow would be a huge asset to my Halloween party on Friday, I can’t imagine what everyone would think, Mark Gervais did a fabulous job. I even have access to a projector already at work so I would be all set. As for Saturday i think all my neighbours would get a kick out of it. I have the perfect picture window in my living room that faces a pretty busy room so a lot of people would get to enjoy it with me!!!
Please can I have a set. :)

I have done the Halloween hunted house for many years. Now that my kids have all grown up and have kids of their own ,they are not into helping me set up or being out in the cold scaring the kids who dare to come into my back yard. I love this time of the year ,it is better then Christmas. Until my grand kids get older( they are 3yrs & 19 Mons),I’m afraid I will have to put my hunted house on hold,how sad will that be and disappointing for the neighborhood kids. With the high tech I would still be able to give the kids a scare,enjoy the holiday and keep the tradition alive.

    Thanks for featuring Hallowwindow! We have been trying to figure out something quick and easy and very effective for our upcoming weekend of trick or treaters! We have everything required and it won’t require us dropping hundreds of dollars on props for last minute spooks. This product is awesome! Love ghostcam!

    thanks

    Hi Mike,
    My friend Dawn spends 3 weeks setting up her house in Auburn bay for Halloween. I know this because this year I had to help. The one thing she lacks is exciting window decor. She puts up the usual lame window stickers but i know if she had the Hallowindow set up she would have to coolest house on the block…
    I would love to show up at her house this weekend with it…
    Thanks kindly,
    Ryan

    I would love to win a copy of the hallowindow DVD Mike, because my house faces two major roads and I can project it in the community to share the spirit of Halloween with Calgary motorists and my community. I can put it to good use Mike. Thanks.

  9. Shawn Says:

    Almost everyone on my street has amazing decorations. I currently don’t have anything and I’m feeling a little left out. These would give me a chance to fit in with my community and the Halloween theme on my street.

  12. Geoffrey Says:

    Halloween is my holiday. everyone tends to go all out for that next big holiday in December but not me. This would be the best display by far in the area.

  13. Sherry Wood-Armstrong Says:

    I really need your Hallowindow! DVD’s because I teach junior high and would love to dazzle and amaze the students on Friday when we have our school dance. I work with a bunch of great teachers and students who deserve to be treated by a great Halloween video show! Mike Yawney rocks!

  14. Amanda Culp Says:

    This is so cool, I need to have one, My son and I want to tell all our friends, or show all our friends No kids come by as no one on our block has any decorations and we are trying to change this, We are on a busy road and would like to give the passerbyers a good scare and allow my son to say he has the scariest house on the block

  21. Bruce Campbell Says:

    We (my wife) have a growing collection of hallow’s eve decorations, but Hallowindow would actually be a cool one: not as tacky as celophane chains on the wall! Thanks for giving props to Mark Gervais.

  22. Jane Aubertin Says:

    I have done a hunted house for many years . Kids are older now I have no help setting up.I love this time of year.It is better then Christmas. Until my grand kids get older ( 3yrs & 19 Mons) I will have to put this tradition on hold.How disappointing for the neighbourhood kids. With this hallowindow & my fog machine I can still have my hunted house and keep the tradition alive.

    Thank you
