i agree with you totally.. its been a few years now that i have considered myself a true haunter..i always was into planning scenes but i mostly just went off of all my store bought props.. it probably all started for me this past december when i really started digging deeper in to the haunt world.. and then i found hauntspace.. i have gotten so much work done this winter its ridiculous.. i have really stepped it up a notch into really really building new props and experimenting with new techniques.. my friends always make fun of me and are always wondering why they dont see me out at the bars.. well.. quite frankly.. i hate being in a bar.. the whole time im there all i think about is the time im wasting when i could be at home being productive.. ive always been a homebody but now i really put my stay at home skills to good use.. haha.. i thank hauntspace sooooo much for that because everyone is so inspiring and motivating..and above all.. supportive.. before.. i would work on things and only share them with select few that i felt comfortable with.. now i have no fears of being judged for my lack of ability because i know that even if im not happy with something i will get a lot of positive reinforcement.. i think hs has helped me come out of my shell because before i would be hesitant to tell people of my hobbies.. not that i really care what they think but more because its a lot easier to be quiet than it is to explain why im working on corpses in march.. now you wouldnt believe the amount of people i tell about hauntspace and i think its because ive truly 100% found a sense of belonging..

My sentiments exactly!
