I love all of your layouts around even Easter and July 4th. The unsettling music really adds to this.
As I've gotten more into Halloween over the years, and even collected a few Lemax Spooky Town buildings, I've thought about putting up a Halloween layout, but my storage is already bursting at the seams with my Christmas trains and buildings. There are so many neat Department 56 and Lemax Halloween buildings and all of the other decor sold everywhere that would be perfect for a Halloween layout. I just can't get addicted to another thing, haha. I can saying to myself, oh, I'll just do a simple loop like you've done. But pretty soon I've expanded into something much larger.
I follow a lot of the Department 56 and Lemax Halloween building groups and the interest is growing each year. And that is reflected by the buildings being sold out everywhere very quickly. This, combined with some great Halloween engines and cars from Lionel and MTH and I think we will star to see more Halloween layouts.

I totally agree about all the cool stuff Dept56 and Lemax are coming out with now at Halloween. Which really surprises me that we don't see more layouts on YouTube. The only reason I don't buy as much Dept56 and Lemax stuff is I am running out of places to store the stuff. I get one storage bin per Holiday. The big stuff like my pumpkins take up even more space. And I try to buy new things for each theme I do. If I went to a bigger layout than my 4'x8' I would be in big trouble. lol. But with all that said they are a lot of fun to design/build. For me the hardest part is getting the videoing done and edited.

Who wants to view my Halloween train garden again? I stopped over Emile's house the other day and got to see his awesome Halloween train layout. It was everything I had hoped plus some. If you have one please share a clip with the forum. I know I would love to see it.

"Here is a short of my little Halloween Village area. I cant display it here because YouTube shorts don't embed here for some reason."
I would check with Emile, he is able to do it. Thankless for the link.

Thankless for the link. It's no use Brian. This is a different type of YouTube video that they have in BETA called "shorts". I just don't think the forum supports it.
