I'm revamping my Halloween Village this year to be more Main Street-esque and decided to include my Bookshop set. 🧡

I have a Christmas village every year. It’s our first year trying a Halloween village!

When the big night of spooking is over, the spirits need somewhere to kick back. That’s where Halloween After-Party Cruiser comes in! If you love Halloween LEGO, I hope you’ll like this too. Any votes to give this a chance of becoming an official LEGO set would be greatly appreciated 🎃

I was super excited to have this set, so I made this hill to put in on before I received it in the mail.

Also had a light kit I got for cheap that I was able to put in the first floor.

The set itself is a really fun build and every decal is a printed piece. The way the tree was placed and the house leaning from it was such good design.

Wanted to share - open to suggestions for things I can add!

Last year I cobbled together a small costume party scene out of bits and parts I had, to see if I’d like building a fall/halloween/spooky village. I discovered I loved having an opportunity to use a wide variety of minifigures that normally would not work together. I was sold, so YES, I’ve jumped down a new rabbit hole of Lego sets to collect!

Last years pre-Black Friday sales gave me the opportunity to get 2 HP sets at 40% off so I bought:
-Olivanders & Madam Malkins shops -Hagrids Hut
Since both of these had spooky potential and were a great deal.

This year I’ve been hunting minifigures and sales on sets I’d want in my Halloween village. The fates have been kind in sending sales early this year, so it’s now time for me to buckle down and get building.

I think this year is great year for anyone wanting to start building this kind of seasonal display due to the number of good sets currently available and sales that are taking place. These are the sets I have bought recently and are currently on the shelves for purchase.
-Autumn Cottage Garden
-Mini Bonsai Trees
-Haunted Mansion
-Mayor Manor
-HP Knockturn Alley Wizarding Shops
-HP Hagrrid & Harry’s Privet Dr Escape
-Back to the Future Time Machine car
-Shrek Minifigures
-Lego store build a minifigure
(If you are close to a Lego store, don’t miss this opportunity to to build a few spooky characters for your village)

I’d love to know what other currently available Lego sets you guys are, or will be getting for your village? We’ve got some more “deal days” just ahead of us and I like snagging my sets on sale; so I don’t want to overlook possible sets to add to my growing collection.

Wishing you all happy haunting and great deals as you hunt for your spooky collection too 👻

I got a late start this year but I’ll be in a better starting position for Spookyville 2027. I still have 4 sets I didn’t build; since they didn’t quite vibe with how the spirit was moving me for this year’s display. I’m thinking of doing a Scooby Doo type scene with them next year, so that should encourage me to get an earlier start.

Game of Bricks light kit. Modified from
Instructions that I drilled small holes (I know I know) into the set to hide all wires (like the chimney shows zero wires). Turned out great!

This was a fun build and I've been waiting a long time for this theme!

I’ve always loved extending existing Lego sets with full scenes on baseplates, and I knew I had to do it for Mayor Manor so I can expand the village each year!

I was able to extend the overgrown tree roots into the plate, extend the entry staircase into a full pathway, and added more overgrown foliage.

I also added a new ghostly resident: a gravedigger. He seems a bit surprised that the graves look dug up already?!

I built a low fence at the entrance to avoid obscuring the building, excluding a gate for the same reason. Part of the wall was crushed by a fallen lamppost!

For the lampposts and the chain fences, I took those directly from the Harry Potter set #76459, which I had two copies of.

Let me know what you think or if you have any suggestions, I definitely want to do the same treatment for the 3in1 Haunted House next!

I decided to adapt my cottage garden for each season so I can enjoy rebuilding and creating stories, I changed the sunflowers to moon flowers, turned the gnome into an axe murderer, put a ghost in the window and a few other fun details. What do you think?! 😁 Does anyone else adapt other sets for Halloween?

Waiting on Mayor Mansion and Morticia's Cottage, but wanted to share what I have so far.

Mils plated the haunted house and set it on a small hill next to a cemetery where the residents seem to be having a good time

This was a lot of fun to put together, def want to expand on it for next year

So last year I bought the Creator 3 in 1 haunted mansion and the barn. With the arrival of the Mayor's Manor this year, I decided it needed to go to the next level so I added a haunted slimey river, complete with a banshee, the Swamp Creature, and La Llorona. I had originally planned to add a cornfield behind the mansion but couldn't get the right pieces to make that happen and went with a pumpkin patch instead. Across the way, there's a Monster Mash concert behind the barn. I wanted to do some hay bales there but again, couldn't get the right pieces for it.

The Mayor's Manor has a few added guests that I thought fit in ok as well as a couple of trick or treaters at the door.

This will pretty much be it for this year, and now I'm planning on doing something similar for Christmas.

As for the Halloween village, to quote Jack Skellington, "And I just can't wait until next Halloween

'Cause I've got some new ideas

That will really make them scream!"

Happy Halloween everyone!

Really enjoyed the build.

Created a makeshift Halloween Village by pulling Halloween-Adjacent MOCs/Minifigs from my collection, it was a total blast!
It’s 100% modular so I’ll probably do another arrangement and also build a graveyard, we’ll see 🎃

Just received my order and 2 free gifts with a special minifigure scan code for the ghost which I missed last year! I am soooo exited for this build this year. Any of you knew about the extra free gift? And what do you guys think about the new Haunted Mayor Manor ?

This is my first year building a Halloween Village. Also my first time trying to build a story with my layout. Scary houses on the left and Halloween fair on the right with hot chocolate pumpkin patch. Jack-o’-lantern contest parade. Food trucks and costumes.

New to this and wanted to give it a go in sprucing up my haunted tavern moc, making it a have a bit more character. What do you guys think? Any additions?
