Halloween Webcam - kill FrankensteinView over 7,000 Halloween Lights and a giant inflateable Frankenstein. Turn the lights on and off - or better yet, decide if Frankenstein lives (inflate him) or dies. What do the neighbors think of this?

Isn't this the same guy who let the world 'remote control' his Christmas lights?

You know, the one that turned out to be a whole bunch of images showing all the different combinations and the server just put up whatever image matched?

Hmm...I saw him at the camera, too, only just a few seconds ago. I'll be sad if this isn't real.

there's a faq page about the last year hoax (check the "Trick or Treat" link) and he claims that although you shouldn't trust him, this year is real. Can't be that hard to do, he says he's using X10 stuff.

Reminds me of this Christmas FPP (main link is gone).

Hmm... well then I guess I believe him. Who says I never admit when I'm wrong....

It's funny if it were true though.

There is a time lapse video link from the Trick-or-Treat page mentioned by neustile - they look pretty convincing to me.

Yeah, he said he used x10 LAST year too. And time lapse video is one of the easiest things to make and throw up on a web page. Please.

I love it! And want to believe it's real. Just like the Great Pumpkin...
