Well the stores are getting in their Halloween Merchandise full force now which is always mondo-exciting! Looking forward to Halloween falling on a Friday this year! I've been scouring the web for 'spooky' ideas for a Halloween Carnival themed party this year. In my searching, I landed on this creepy video from a lesser known musician that I just happen to love. She has a breathy, haunting voice that I never tire of listening to. Her name is Melanie Martinez, and I first saw her on "The Voice". We thought she had a really unique sound that was far more interesting than most of the other cookie cutter singers. She didn't make it to the end, but apparently she is recording, as this official video is for her new EP out on iTunes titled "Dollhouse", and the song is of the same title. The video is creepy in a good way, and that disturbing melancholy is what makes it so interesting . Unfortunately, the lyrics will probably hit home for a lot of people who were raised in dysfunctional families, but again, that's what makes it so good!

Hey spooky lady glad to see ya in blogland again!
Hi Wendy, so glad you're blogging again, so am I ; )
I had never heard of this singer. She is not like usual singers and that is great. I am a Kate Bush fan and she was also very different.
Autumn is on its way here in The netherlands too, so I am looking forward to Halloween. Love to see all the Halloween stuff on your blog. Here in The Netherlands it still isn't a big day unfortunately.
Have a magical day !!

WOW! Your blog really rocks!!!! I love, love, love this time of the year. Wish it lasted ALL YEAR LONG!!!! YEAH!!!
Brightest Blessings!
Nice to meet you Lady Caer Morganna! I share your enthusiasm and love for this time of the year. I live for Autumn and Halloween all year long! :o)
Moncha...so good to see you again my far away friend. I left you message on your post today, looking forward to spending the season with you this year! :o)
Miss Becca...thank you so much for your help today, and I'm glad you figured out how to keep me around. I did go back to my settings and attempt to change my name again, as I thought maybe people didn't know that the 'The Artful Gypsy' was one and the same as 'Wendy the Very Good Witch'! Last time I tried, nothing was working or saving, but today it did. I'm still trying to figure out how to comment on my Halloween friends pages who have Google + without switching to it myself. Thanks for your help. :o)
