A Few Early Ghosts and Goblin Visitors

We’ve had a small, but steady flow of visitors to the Meister House Halloween display since the Fox 8 Morning News segment.

The Meister Mom is always happy to see people stop by, so we’ve taken to keeping the oversized garage display open and welcoming in guests as we see them stopping in front of the house. She’s clearly enjoying the added time to share all the hard work she’s put into this year’s setup with everyone.

Only a few more days left until the Halloween weekend, but in the meantime, we’re going to have fun with the crazy setup that is the Meister House display.

Terror and technology combine at the Meister House Halloween display. I had a chance to speak with the Fox 8 News morning team about how we create our holiday lightshow experience.

Even the Agent Meister Mom was there to explain how she collects the hundreds of Halloween decorations that make up our display.

Protect Your Kids From Cyber-Bullying

According to some studies, between 9% and 35% of kids today have experienced some form of cyber-bullying and online agression.

I had an opportunity to talk with the Wills & Snyder show on WTAM 1000 in Cleveland today about tips to help protect your kids from cyber-bullying.

Work continues on the 2010 Halloween display at the Meister House. We decided to move the graveyard from the side to the front of the house. Once setup is complete, we’ll use a small FM transmitter to allow people driving by to listen in on the show, which will be setup to run daily between 7 to 9pm.

The lightshow is run using a D-Light 16 channel controller hooked up to a small home-built PC running AuroraShow.
