3.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Halloween book this is not!, September 30, 1999
By Tracy Hoffmann (Downingtown, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Any book that bills itself the "Ultimate" had better be at least very good. This book doesn't fit the bill. A beautiful book, but the contents are reworked ideas most crafters have seen before. You'll get more bang for your buck buying a Halloween crafting magazine. Most projects are much too difficult for kids. Cute food ideas.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Christmas book with pumpkins, September 10, 2004
By alexxcz "alexxcz" (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tricks and Treats (Paperback)
What I found really weird about this book was (besides having nothing really new or interesting in it) was that it was essentially a Christmas craft and gift book with a Halloween theme overlay.

What I've always enjoyed about Halloween is that it is a time to do fun and goofy things that you don't normally do during the rest of the year - dress up like a rock star, dangle fake bodies in your yard, make food that looks like trash.

I feel like this book misses the spirit of Halloween while relying on the basic expectations of the Christmas holiday to do alot of hand-made gifts, and annoyingly complicated recipes.

If you are an accomplished craft maker or seamstress, you might get some ideas from this book, but for the average person hosting a Halloween party or dressing your kids lookng for new ideas, I'd look elsewhere.

1.0 out of 5 stars Should be called Ultimate Country Kitsch & Patterns, April 22, 2007
This review is from: Tricks and Treats (Paperback)
The majority of this book is simply country kitsch, costume patterns, and patterns for a crocheted pumpkin vests complete with applicaques... scary and not in the good way. The photography also seems very dated, like it may have been compiled in the 80s. Maybe some would find this book "ever-so-charming" or even "oh-my-stars-delightful", but its not for the modern Halloween enthusiast. I'm a huge fan of the Martha Stewart Halloween book and I keep looking for other good books on Halloween.
