Read MoreEveryone’s favorite haunted holiday is here, and builders are celebrating all over the world.

My money is on Batman, you know he has some tricks up his sleeve.
Halloween is in just two days, and things are getting awful scary. But thanks to the mechanical genius of JK Brickworks they’re also getting awful convenient. To celebrate everyone’s favorite sugar-fueled holiday Jason has designed a chocolate dispensing vending machine. Check out the video to see it in action and to go behind the scenes to see how it works!
While this scarecrow by builder dviddy seems to be a bit ineffective at scaring said crows, it’s is more than effective in conjuring images of fall and of Halloween. For some people it’s pumpkin spice lattes, for others it’s fall colors, for me, it’s images like this.
Tim Burton’s design for The Nightmare Before Christmas is as iconic as the film itself. Everywhere you look in the film there’s things so wonderfully off kilter they defy logic but draw you in. It’s so charming your brain just automatically forgives any gap in reality. Builder monstrophonic captures this aesthetic perfectly with this rendition of Jack Skellington’s house, and the same rules apply here.
It’s finally here, October 31st, Halloween! We’re not planning much here at BrickNerd headquarters, but we have almost 10 pounds of candy, some fun decorations (including zombie flamingos!) and Beetlejuice is on the TV. Everyone have a spooky and safe day out there!
♫ It’s the most spookiest time of the year
There’ll be creepers a creepin’
And everyone telling you there’s much to fear
It’s the most spookiest time of the year 𝄇
A wonderfully chilling character by builder The Chosen One.
As halloween approaches it’s time for things to get a little spooky. Builder chubbybots thinks so too and created this wonderful werewolf. And as I’m typing this my dogs are begging for biscuits behind me, which got me wondering, what do you suppose a werecorgi would look like? I mean, why does it have to be a wolf? I can assure you corgis can be pretty fierce too, just way more adorable when they’re doing it.
Frost has built a lovely little trolley for those off to Spooky Town. The dark grey, orange, black, and trans-yellow color scheme works well, at first I wanted it to drop the grey in favor of black, but upon reflection I think that would really harm the fun of this build. I believe Halloween needs to strike a balance of Spooky Fun and Spooky Scary and this cheeks those requirements nicely. The angled front windows and sideways built door, really helps to capture that classic trolley look as well.
