Through the East Garden and into the Parlor. There you meet your hosts — none still among the living — to receive a treat, and perhaps a trick or two.
Welcome… to Von Lockleigh Manor.
Welcome to the ancestral grounds of Beauregard Von Lockleigh; wealthy aristrocrat, shrewd businessman, and now, three-hundred years later, tortured soul given ghastly form, doomed to stalk his descendants, repay his old debts, and generally terrorize the living.
Visit the HALLOWEEN 2024 page to tour the updated grounds of our annual home haunt.
If, of course, you dare.
Naturally (or is that ‘unnaturally’?), Beauregard is far from the only twisted spirit lingering at the manor. Charlotte certainly played her part in the Von Lockleigh tale… and continues to do so to this day.
Visit the HALLOWEEN 2023 page to see the first iteration of the grounds, where we jumped from “several spooky decorations” in 2022 to full-blown home haunt in just one season.
The Von Lockleigh Grounds are home to untold number of ghosts, specters, ghouls, wraiths, banshees, and more. Generations of relatives still reside here, complete with their scorned lovers, tortured victims, shady pasts, and terrifying intentions.
Visit the VON LOCKLEIGH page for the tragic history of these spirits and unlock the clues hidden within the grounds, eternally linking these phantasms in undeath.
[COMING SOON]
Home Haunts of this magnitude certainly do not build themselves. Even running most props “as-purchased” requires rigging, mounting, costumes, weathering, and set dressing. Not to mention the construction of the walkthrough and backdrop structures.
On top of that — surprise, lol, considering the rest of this hobby website — I also modify and repaint props, annually convert my tool shed into an animatronic mausoleum, build tombstones, design and build custom led spotlights, and cobble together foley tracks and various other effects.
The HAUNT PROPS page is COMING SOON. Meet the Crew!
