Whooo....</p><p>If you have not already signed up or your friends haven't, NOW is the time. I am closing sign up on the 1st this year as too much has gone on for me to do anything more other than the Countdown itself.</p><p>Dex and I will be around to your blogs but please be patient. Go visit others too and leave boo notes. We all love those. Remember to post every couple of days something Halloween-ish.</p><p>NOTE: You will notice a couple of changes this year. If you look above, you will see some tabs. They are: Crypt Keepers 2023, Countdown Instagram, and Home. Please explore those but in a nut shell, if you click on the Crypt Keepers one, you will be taken to a list of all the Crypt Keepers and their blogs. I had to do this for time sake this year and frankly, was a bit easier. PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING BUT <b>DO CHECK YOUR LINKS THAT THEY WORK</b>. I did not check any of the links so, if there is something wrong or you have been left off, just comment below and I will fix it. If you don't tell me, I don't know.</p><p>---->If you have not purchased this years t-shirt, the link is on the side bar. Remember that all proceeds go to charity. </p><p>Finally, I got word that you are having issues with the badges. You will have to download them to your device and upload to your blog. Please add the link to this blog so everyone comes here.</p><p>Have a great October and check back here for updates and newer cobwebs.</p><p><br /></p>Michelle aka Naila Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14085797149191658262noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199606378516318524.post-20064160949578048732023-09-17T22:27:00.002-07:002023-09-17T22:27:54.090-07:00Something Is Afoot! #countdowntohalloween2023<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ4HhU6v_Ygd6kFzaBqad3Hi6eZDe5eqBWhutP-yKDPwZfDcr8l_7mtqZQH8p47iJAlJtigvp3nl5xouQA40f9uz-5emSZw0M9w-EO3-m-QOUebcL8iRjCFfH77zCBV4iOdRsqZj3J-lj5u1fKljeTtajv8CSvJBshmOBIbQTL-DKtXShndBpjw5Pl0xc/s320/Screenshot%202023-09-17%209.30.57%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="297" data-original-width="320" height="231" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ4HhU6v_Ygd6kFzaBqad3Hi6eZDe5eqBWhutP-yKDPwZfDcr8l_7mtqZQH8p47iJAlJtigvp3nl5xouQA40f9uz-5emSZw0M9w-EO3-m-QOUebcL8iRjCFfH77zCBV4iOdRsqZj3J-lj5u1fKljeTtajv8CSvJBshmOBIbQTL-DKtXShndBpjw5Pl0xc/w249-h231/Screenshot%202023-09-17%209.30.57%20PM.png" width="249" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Libre Baskerville; font-size: medium;">Boils and ghouls,</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Libre Baskerville; font-size: medium;">Have you noticed things are afoot here?

Either way, we are here for you. BOO!</p><p>CREEPMAS: So, since it is November 1st (crypt keepers cry), some of you will be looking forward to Creepmas. Last year, Chad and Dex decided to forgo the official delight but many of you did it on your own. I have not heard from either of these two creepers about it so maybe they can chime in. This crypt will be kept open for a bit to allow for this event if it happens.</p><p>OFFICIAL SHIRTS:I hope you all ordered the shirts that were available. They have even been on sale. I don't know if you saw Dex decked out in his on the Instagram page but it was pure awesomeness. I ordered one but believe it or not, it never got to me on time nor have I received it yet. Disappointing but still a good cause and of course no matter when I receive it, you will see me in it. Did you get one? Share a photo in comments!</p><p>AN APOLOGY: So, as I mentioned to you earlier. All heck broke loose this month for me. Even yesterday was just ugh! Because of this, I did not get around to all of you by yesterday. I wanted to at least throw some toilet paper at your house but noooo... I do apologize for that not happening. Instead of treats, I got tricks this year!! Side note: I even got a ticket last night. Oy! I will get to all of you, it is just going to be way late!</p><p>THANKS: A BIG SHOUT OUT TO DEX who has kept things going when everything went arry for me. You are the best crypt keeper. I appreciate you running Instagram too. There is always something fun over there all year long. Thanks also creepers for your awesome content year after year. As long as you keep doing it, I will keep hosting.</p><p>Always,</p><p>Master Crypt Keeper, Michelle</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Michelle aka Naila Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14085797149191658262noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199606378516318524.post-68037344447166248692022-10-31T10:41:00.000-07:002022-10-31T10:41:10.471-07:00Happy Halloween!!!<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2cAi4PwX3AnARxd9hSNeNo1wS74yyOgH8mwV4Wu8g9wJ9opuvHXuoXMrDipSIFT8fovvdiR-zee_uKwTlaNESXEWVW6HC_KUqSJ3kCPAWWpWDNXJBQDSNQtdrxhVdc6XK7mZuwDkrUbEAZRoWq51H2rvjslHvDLQXtf6BGmS1Tem-YpdLK_OxmrnE/s1440/Screenshot_20221031-102202.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="720" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2cAi4PwX3AnARxd9hSNeNo1wS74yyOgH8mwV4Wu8g9wJ9opuvHXuoXMrDipSIFT8fovvdiR-zee_uKwTlaNESXEWVW6HC_KUqSJ3kCPAWWpWDNXJBQDSNQtdrxhVdc6XK7mZuwDkrUbEAZRoWq51H2rvjslHvDLQXtf6BGmS1Tem-YpdLK_OxmrnE/s320/Screenshot_20221031-102202.png" width="160" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>Happy Halloween my crypt keepers.

He has been keeping things creepy here while I had some unexpected tricks to clear out. I had some massive issues with my Google access and I could not even get into the blog here. Talk about scary! Anyway, Dex helped me out and I am now back and getting treats instead. THANK YOU DEX SERIOUSLY!!!</p><p>So....</p><p>LINKS: If you will take a gander over to your right you will see everyone that has signed up now has a link. PLEASE check those links and make sure they are functioning. We don't check them and won't know they are not working until we go trick or treating on your pages. If your link is not working, please leave me a comment in the comments on this post. I will get back to you about it and fix it.</p><p>MERCH: Last year we kicked around the idea of having official t-shirts that you could purchase if you wanted one. Dex and I are pleased to tell you that this is going to happen. YES! We have seen the design and I have to say, it is awesome. The shop is not set up quite yet but we will let you know when that will be. We are likely to set it up so you can purchase other things too. I personally want a hoodie. </p><p>Question...Would you prefer to have a different design every year or have a simple add on patch for subsequent years?</p><p>INSTAGRAM: Have you all been checking out the Countdown's Instagram content? Dex does an amazing job all year long with it. Go follow if you want to.</p><p>Well, I think that is all I have now. Keep coming back and watching for updates.</p><p>OMGSH-October 1st is around the corner. *squeals*</p><p>Master Crypt Keeper,</p><p>Michelle</p><p><br /></p>Michelle aka Naila Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14085797149191658262noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199606378516318524.post-78817041180308069432022-08-21T14:53:00.004-07:002022-08-21T14:53:59.899-07:00The Crypt Is Open for 2022! #CountdowntoHalloween2022 #information #CryptKeeperDex #CryptKeeperMichelle #Chad<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWBW7ps4Iq-AmMIWgiJmBpzXC4fjsKwX3juyDI3IMzwK6tEtGBaPSqlC_CdS99w7XFEH-gJfDlAEQFivSELsD430dWR53cvk7Db1m0DJz-1k0EaCy8p0uT7k6lqyeRjfxPp5Y_fdxPe4JF7-_wtyrfxJkPmPKachkILwSnaP7yOQatkvsXKXLTTfrA/s898/Countdown-to-Halloween-2022-Blog-Header.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="337" data-original-width="898" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWBW7ps4Iq-AmMIWgiJmBpzXC4fjsKwX3juyDI3IMzwK6tEtGBaPSqlC_CdS99w7XFEH-gJfDlAEQFivSELsD430dWR53cvk7Db1m0DJz-1k0EaCy8p0uT7k6lqyeRjfxPp5Y_fdxPe4JF7-_wtyrfxJkPmPKachkILwSnaP7yOQatkvsXKXLTTfrA/w400-h150/Countdown-to-Halloween-2022-Blog-Header.png" width="400" /></a></div><p><br /></p>Something is afoot here! <p></p><p>Welcome back my very ghoulish friends. I am your Master Crypt Keeper, Michelle. I am along here with my good pal and Master Crypt Keeper, Dex, to keep everything here...well...spooky!</p><p>The official Countdown to Halloween crypt is now open. I know, I know, usually we open August 1st but we had to clear out a few cobwebs and allow for some redecorating. </p><p>A new boil in town, but not new to the Halloween scene, has graced us with some new looks. This year we welcome, <a href="http://chadsavage.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Chad Savage</a> who has created the new banner and badges for this year's theme. Our theme this year is "Old School Halloween" and we let him run with it. What do you think? Make sure to click on his name and go look around his blog. Just an FYI, he is the one that Dex mentioned last year for the cool calendar.</p><p>So let's get on to the stuff.</p><p><b>Badges:</b> As always, you are welcome to pick up a web-covered badge to decorate your own crypt with. We know you love them, but make sure it links back to the Countdown. If you for some reason don't know how to do that, just ask.</p><p><b>Official begin: </b>Well of course, October 1st for the Countdown but we all know that some of you go all year long. PLEASE link back to our blog when you post. It is a nice thing to do and newbies may want to join.</p><p><b>Commenting: </b>What makes the Countdown fun is visiting others and commenting. It is the spirit of the thing. You want those treats just as others do. Go and visit others crypts.</p><p><b>Links:</b> They will be posted starting today (see right side bar). You can sign up through October 3rd and after that the link list will be shut off. However, I am nice and if you have a good enough treat, I might reconsider if you still want in. *chuckles* PLEASE be patient though, if you don't see your link by October 1st, email me at nailamoon1968 at gmail dot com and I will see what is up. I do add links on my own time and this year, I am in college again...talk about clearing out cobwebs...sheesh....</p><p><b>Following:</b> You can subscribe or just come back periodically to the Countdown from now until we close again. We often have fun posts and/or new information you need to know. Links for that is also on the right sidebar. ALSO, if you want to organize just to 2022, our hashtag is <b>#CountdowntoHalloween2022</b></p><p>You can also find us on our <a href="https://www.instagram.com/countdowntohalloweenblog/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Instagram Link</a> all year long. Go and check that out because sometimes, you might see your own stuff there. Dex does a great job of keeping that alternate crypt going. THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO DUDE!</p><p><b>New stuff: </b>Last year we kicked around having the Official Countdown to Halloween t-shirts. Well, guess what...we are working on making that happening! Whoo... Stayed tuned for more information on that. We might have some other merch too to purchase.</p><p><b>Questions for me or Dex:</b> If you have a questions or comments to make about any particular post, put it in the comment section for the post. DON'T EMAIL IT WILL GET LOST. I do monitor and will answer each post that is made. Note: you will not see it right away but I do get them. For integrity of our crypt here, I do approve/disprove each comment as often we get simply spam and who wants that?</p><p>Ok, so, I think that is it for now. WELCOME! October is right around the corner!</p><p>Your Master Crypt Keeper,</p><p>Michelle</p>Michelle aka Naila Moonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14085797149191658262noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199606378516318524.post-28992959776330825832022-08-08T13:00:00.002-07:002022-08-08T13:00:00.177-07:00The Crypt Creaks Open!<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">In case you're not on the mailing list from last year, sign ups are now open!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE9br224ismojkVq5Sui3cCoT1XK5eRbHmTwpdkdKUBUrgXoqH9K_pwOCwKpk5jQiFKdky-Rwq7aUe0jLhz2EGavgaE4sVWBjXg0fl7b-6mmXWQTeeGN2-mekRMKPmx7JortNLhATJ64V-ev8Ml8vPgUZT3yCiwF6_dURDKs_PG54iz0SQ3olci_uoXA/s1912/graveyard.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1075" data-original-width="1912" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE9br224ismojkVq5Sui3cCoT1XK5eRbHmTwpdkdKUBUrgXoqH9K_pwOCwKpk5jQiFKdky-Rwq7aUe0jLhz2EGavgaE4sVWBjXg0fl7b-6mmXWQTeeGN2-mekRMKPmx7JortNLhATJ64V-ev8Ml8vPgUZT3yCiwF6_dURDKs_PG54iz0SQ3olci_uoXA/w400-h225/graveyard.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">The full moon shines down on a forgotten cemetery. The pale light creates an ethereal silver glow as it reflects over an ever present ground fog. The fog breaks slightly as a black cat bounds between the headstones and stops at the door to an ancient stone crypt. The door creaks open slowly with the weight of centuries. Stale air and a warm, flickering orange glow begin to spill out. "Ah, it's good to be alive," you think.
