Now I would like Lemax to take this same idea and make a customizable corn maze. Maybe a fence or row of corn for around the outside with corn rows that can be moved around inside. It would be even better if it had the spooky light up eyes. I hope they reintroduce those separate spooky corn row pieces like they used to have. Other pieces that could be added in would be a scarecrow and pumpkins and hay bales, etc. A-maze-ing Pumpkin Patch was a step in the right direction, but no building attached and no animation and talking would be better.
Good review! I’m glad to see your crypt was painted well. Mine had some unfinished spots where the white porcelain could be seen. I love this idea though of being able to customize a set of pieces. I wish the gate opened and closed. If they had made the fencing movable too, then you would have even more flexibility to decorate and maybe add more of these together. Overall it’s a good thing.
Thanks for the review, Doug. I really like how this piece looks, but considered right away that I didn't want to dedicate that much space to something I couldn't change the shape of. But it would be cool to have it set somewhere else in the house, like the entry hall, aside from our usual Halloween display. Looking forward to the FG Square items. Not having any Menards around, seeing your review could really help in deciding whether to order some.
Hi there everyone! Question for all of my Brothers and Sisters in the Great USA! Has Michaels starting excluding Lemax from their coupons? It seems as everywhere in Canada they have taken this away from us. Unfortunate, and every Canadian collector is disappointed.
Hey Doug! Great review! I agree, some pieces could use some "weathering." I'm wondering, Spooky Village fans, how do you light your cemetery, if at all? I've created my own, and am still debating to light or not to light?
Doug, Yeah, the reason I didn't buy this was because DIY. Not that there is anything wrong with that, just not for me. It's funny you mention the older Lemax Yards. That's what I ended up buying awhile ago, because it wasn't DIY and had all sorts of cool lighting! I chose Ghoul's Night Out. And the funny thing is, I actually bought a couple of tiny tombstones to further decorate it. So I guess I did a bit of DIY to it. However, the lighting and static pieces made it right for me, even without adding anything. Thanks for showing off this piece. I was interested in at least seeing more of it. vgv
I hope you are doing okay. I missed your newest video on Friday. I had a link to a Dutch website that listed all LEMAX for each year they made it but I lost the link to the website and wondered if you or somebody else can connect to it again. It is not the LEMAX website.
So I've been subscribed to your channel a few years, but finally decided to start a village this year. I first started out with cheaper houses from Big Lots and Micheals. I also bought lemax and ashland brand figures. I wanted to buy a lemax spooky town house, so I did alot of research, I wanted something in the form of a haunted house and with a scary soundtrack. Wasn't able to obtain my 1st two choices, but last night I won one on ebay, NIB called Dr. Tingles Laboratory. Hopefully I made a good move? Is there anything you would suggest getting new or old to add? Again going for a haunted house theme. Thank you.
Hopefully you are enjoying your dr tingles! If you want to hear about good haunted house suggestions, I have a village idiots show on the channel where we discussed this for around an hour or so!
I got mine at Michaels with a 15 percent off a sale item (so 35 percent off total), plus a 20 dollar reward coupon, so I got it for less than 50! Online vendors have it for a reasonable price too. The normal retail price at Michaels is bonkers though!
I bought this to go with my spooky town Halloween village, and I will also use the crypts as part of my Dept. 56 Dickens village. It will be perfect with the figurines of Scrooge and the ghost of Christmas yet to come. Thanks for the review!
@@SpookyVillages I had a 15% off coupon i found online...then when i got to store they said it had already been used.. Haven't seen any coupons for sale items (not sure what point of signing up for emails was)..now all the pieces are gone. I really hate how stupid Michaels has been with the coupons. I mean I see a senior and military discount..maybe that's how they are selling out. Rather wait till next year for the online retailers at a fair price.
Now I would like Lemax to take this same idea and make a customizable corn maze. Maybe a fence or row of corn for around the outside with corn rows that can be moved around inside. It would be even better if it had the spooky light up eyes. I hope they reintroduce those separate spooky corn row pieces like they used to have. Other pieces that could be added in would be a scarecrow and pumpkins and hay bales, etc. A-maze-ing Pumpkin Patch was a step in the right direction, but no building attached and no animation and talking would be better.

A pumpkin patch using this as a sort of template would be fantastic!
@@SpookyVillages , that too!
Yes! A corn maze is a fantastic idea!
I like this alot. Not many people set up a cemetery but it's a staple in spooky town. So versatile and you can add stuff and people. ❤
Like this set a lot. Thanks for putting out these great videos

A nice addition to any collection.
Have it, love it! I did put the Lemax creepy tree aside to it, love it as an addition.

Anything with gargoyles is a win for me.
I bought the graveyard BAR last year.I made my own graveyard to put it in...this piece would be perfect to put it in.
I think this is a great piece. Love the 2 bigger tombs/crypts.
Awesome
My problem is the price. At least here in Canada you can get a much better set up for the same price!
Tell me about it! $139.99 here in St. Catharines! I'd only use the 40% off coupon, if I bought it. I like this better with Doug's background.
Hi there everyone! Question for all of my Brothers and Sisters in the Great USA! Has Michaels starting excluding Lemax from their coupons? It seems as everywhere in Canada they have taken this away from us. Unfortunate, and every Canadian collector is disappointed.
I wonder how 2 of these would look next to each other to make a bigger cemetary?

Honestly I’m surprised you didn’t have a review of the witch candy cottage 🍬
Idea for you, you could do a podcast each year on lemax pieces that go retired that year.
Doug,

I totally get how it being DIY wouldn't be for everyone! I really have no current use for the piece but figure at some point I'll be happy to have it!
Are you doing/selling anymore background scenes this year?
Not this year- i hope to launch another one next spring!
I would need this if it were 2 times the size. I have a lot of little things for that.

Is this appropriately sized for dnd miniatures? Lol
No, it would be gigantic for D&D, at least I believe that's the case!
I was surprised how expensive it was. I think it was like around $100.
It’s cheaper elsewhere only $100 at Michael’s

I ordered mine from Sparkle Castle for $50. They packaged it extremely well and shipped fast. I will support small shops over big box any day.
