SPIRIT HALLOWEEN sets up in abandoned Sears! / My last Code Orange Video

[@raymitchell9736]

I haven't watched the other YT channels you speak of, but I will say a few things about your Code Oranges: That (A) you've provided a great community service showing us what various stores have on their shelves.(B) your reviews has taught me to look more critically at the Halloween props in the stores. and (C) many gnomes have been smacked (D) and you've raised awareness to avoid herpes infected glitter props. It's good that the animatronics and quality of Halloween props has upped the game of the consumer-level prop industry, but the stores that display them is kind of bad that the surprises have already been spoiled by the time Halloween comes around all the kids have already seen what you have in your haunt... they're not "impressed" by something they've already seen; that is why I like to make my own custom props because I know the kids haven't seen what I've got in my haunt.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

The other channels pop up in my feed so I'm assaulted with them for doing them,lol, fair enough. Just looking at some of thier fake thumbnails just piss me off so it's time to quit. I always show what's in the store in the thumbnail. I always like to show what's in stores and what us crap so folks aren't wasting time and money with decor especially if It's bathed in herpes glitter. There are alot of spoliers in the vids but for hand made props and displays the magic is always there!! Always show the kids something they haven't seen and they will come back! I'm a hands on guy so it's time to go back to diys when I have free time which isn't much nowadays. I really don't want to do more of the same for folks. I want to at least try to be innovative and show folks they can do build stuff too. Not everything needs to be store bought.

This is bittersweet seeing Spirit in an old Sears since I worked for SHC corporate. Thanks Eddie Lampert for all the jobs you destroyed! However, excited to see you do more DIY again, those videos are my favorite!

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

@@kristingrey4434 I'm sure Amazon helped hand Sears its ass. I'm sure most brick and mortar stores feel the bite too. I shopped at that very Sears for over 20 years. It was weird being in there knowing I was standing in the lingerie dept. Hahahaha. The time has come. I need off this bandwagon. Time to return to my roots and go back to builds. It's where I belong.

[@chungafea1879]

I always loved your walkthroughs the best, because you’re funny and tell it like it is. No fluff. I enjoyed it while it lasted, but am excited to see you get back to DIYs! 🤘🏽

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Sincerely appreciated!!! I feel the time is now to end it. I enjoyed it but I'm feeling the need to back to my roots and break stuff,hahahaga

[@johnc6228]

I tried to buy someone's shopping list of carnival props for them to do a front yard display walkthrough and like 90% was not available. I asked to buy floor samples some just one if a kind little signs little props, etc. and they said no. And they will be sent to storage and not sold next year (???) No one makes walk through videos like you do that are fantastically sarcastic and funny. Whatever you do we'll keep watching. You have skills in so many layers of materials and artistic ability that gives very original creations.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

@@johnc6228 Some Spirits have a ton of stock and others get cleared out by resellers. They can't sell any of the display until Nov.1st but usually it's already sold to employees. They get first dibs,lol. You have to go one early and constantly watch the incoming stock. The walkthroughs are fun and it gives me a chance to show stuff in person but there's too much of it now. I need to go back to builds.

[@MonsterMike816]

The difference is that your walkthroughs are actually entertaining to watch. It’s funny what you said at the beginning because I felt the exact same way. Pretty sure I know who the girl is and I couldn’t agree more. Either way, I’ll be watching your vids.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Yeah, Tampa Lanes gf is a full time yt now and gets all his subs. Then does a metal health vid when theres no store to visit? Lame. I'm not doing mental health vids cause I'm not pushing drama. I try to keep high energy and brutal honesty. I don't fear demonetizing,lol.

[@MonsterMike816]

@@CobwebsandCandlesticks I didn’t even know because I turned everything off but Yep that’s the one.

[@chadeglenn]

Thanks for all the vids cobwebs... hope to see more of your DIY stuff in the future. Always liked your vids man. Take it easy and thanks for all you have done!!! Stay spooky!!!

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

@@chadeglenn I feel it's just time to get off the bandwagon. To many peeps are doing it. Time to go back to center.

[@olivertwist69]

I enjoy the rawness of your videos, Your honest opinions about the subject and the humorous way you explain things. You keep me tuned in. Have me saying HEEEEELLLOOO KZbin 😂

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

I sincerely appreciate that sentiment!! It was fun but its time to move on. I don't want to do the norm,lol.

[@costumesforalloccasions]

Great job, Kieth! Thanks!

Pretty sure vinyl doesn't deteriorate the way latex does. Great vid.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

@@williamblasko1031 a thick latex mask will last a good 20 years with care but they do deteriorate as they age. The modern super thin mass produced masks are more vinyl the latex and of last a few seasons and tear easier.

Golden Child references 🏆

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

I freaking love that movie to this day!!! Dear Brother Numsi!!!!! Purge me!!!

[@StrickenGhoul]

@@CobwebsandCandlesticks definitely an underrated film

[@FraidyZone]

The stores really have it made in terms of advertising because the numerous walkthrough video channels essentially do the advertising for them. As a result, even the coolest products meant to impress, surprise or scare, become so familiar and easily identified. Come haunt time, visitors act like they’re at a sidewalk sale where even the most moderate Halloween lover can rattle off not only the names of the props, which store sold them and for how much, but will likely say they just saw the exact same props a few houses over.🤪🥴

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

That's literally my nightmare! Kiddos walk up and name check every store every piece of my display came from. Not in my house!!! I have to be better then....well every house in Indiana hahahahaga.

[@smokemist1]

Hope you don't stop the walkthrough videos man. Your channel is really you, and your content is secondary I think. So congrats on that.. it's something that can never be duplicated.. that makes all of your videos entirely unique.. keep posting it all man 💪🤟

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Well as a regular series on my channel its time to end it. There's too much of it on YT. I'm glad folks follow just to see my take on the world and that content is secondary!!! Ill probably do the occasional store walkthrough but I really need to distance myself and go back to diys.

[@HereForTheComments]

If you have skills that others don't, it makes sense to focus on that instead of what everyone else is doing.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

@@HereForTheComments amen Dave!!! I don't want to be doing what everybody else is doing. I need tonve doing my own thing.

[@13ghosts31]

Yeah, everyone is doing code orange videos. But who has the one and only SAVAGE! The one in the car posing a teddy bear while trying to make a video! 😂 Spirit Halloween just seems to have the same overpriced stuff every year, but it was fun when they first opened years ago.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

I actually prefer Home Depot to Spirit! They are more innovative. The price tags at Spirit are just crazy. Everything is 300$. I don't want to push store bought displays. I really want to push folks build unique stuff for their yards.

[@billxmas889]

Well the introduction explains your Absence, Wondered what the Deal was wasn't expecting that , Had Only assumed you were busy or in pre-production with The Sequel to Coven ?

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Yep, there's just to many new channels doing walkthroughs. They don't build or do diys. They are just talkers. I have a skill set and I like to build my own stuff. I just feel like I'm dumbing myself down and wasting time in stores. It is getting harder to find time to get out too so what little time I have I need to focus on diys I feel. I need to get back to the heart of my channel.

[@lkirkp6468]

Tree fiddy you say

[@tammybaker8458]

Keith, I fully understand why you decided to stop doing the videos. You're right about everybody making their own videos about it. After watching the endless babbling these videos you speak of. When you were doing them. I like your style on how you explain the prices, comments, and the product itself. Believe it or not, I depended on your information. And I absolutely love the way you're honest about it. Thank you for all the time you took to show us what is new for the year. Remember, don't touch the glitter, & punch every knom you see. Keep it creepy!!

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

It was always my intent to be honest about pricing and quality for folks who wanted to limit their time out. It was fun while it lasted and I loved trashing some of the junk out there but praise the good stuff!! ( of course with my smart ass mouth and sparky attitude!) I just need to move on and return to builds and showing folks how I do stuff.

[@tammybaker8458]

@@CobwebsandCandlesticks I completely understand. Now on to the good stuff!

[@Kat_Nguyen]

The prices for animatronics are way outta my price range this year. I love corpse bride & victor but not at those prices. I'll just just be be using props I already have. Enjoy your walk-throughs cause you don't hold back.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Everything in there seems 300$! The Corpse Bride stuff looks great but who puts that in thier yard? I think the price tag is for the licensing. I've always tried to keep it 100 and be totally honest about what I see.

[@iggyvanzandt4515]

I feel you man I remember you from the facebook halloween groups I quit after a year haha

[@iggyvanzandt4515]

My gf and I quote your videos where you say “fool!” And punch at things 😂

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Alot of the groups are stale or dead. It's because they see the same old thing time after time and I contribute to that! Covid is sort of behind us so it time to go back to diys.

[@lkirkp6468]

The shit talking is the best thing

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

It really is what I do best. I need to stick to my strengths.

[@knowyourjoe8826]

Sure... say what you must but WE KNOW THE REAL REASON why you are stopping the Code Orange Videos. It's all those glitter infested Gnomes and their unrelenting quest for revenge!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA ! ! ! Seriously, I am quite fond of your content. While I still like some of the store offerings it is the DIY and original props that have my attention. Learning is important whether it is understanding some new techniques or an old one. Your skills sets are tremendous. The people that are able to acquire one of your hand made original pieces are fortunate. You keep doing what you do and I will keep watching. Thanks Keith.

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Thank you Bill!! I just feel it's time. My time is more limited to with jobs. I don't have the day to drive to 5 different Targets to be the first to get a video out on the Code Orange. I gotta go to work! My diys are where my hearts at. Plus it will wean folks off always having to buy what's in stores. You don't have to be limited! I don't want a store bought yard but I do in fact like some of the stuff I see out there. Just not the dumb clowns or glitter gnomes!!! The HD Frankenstein was my fave this year!

[@knowyourjoe8826]

@@CobwebsandCandlesticksMy FAVORITE display piece this year was the Frankie you built and took to MHC! That was AWESOME! On the store front side of things, the HD Frankenstein and the 4 member Reaper Rock Band at Lowe’s have really got my attention. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, none of those are outdoor rated. The HD Frankie would be pretty cool to leave up all year in a room in the house. The servos and controller could be hacked to display other actions after that add a little work to costume and it would be the digitty!

[@billxmas889]

So far everyone has missed the Boat on "Art the Clown" lot of Purest out There , So they Got Regular Art, Bloody Art , SunFlower Sunglasses Art ? But Nobody has Done the "All Hallows-Eve" Poop smeared Art, Partner that up with The Fart Spray people and have Art Scented or Infused with Corn Niblets or Peanuts in the Paint job , Have animatronic with his hands all Gunky with 💩 when People go to look at him is hands jump scare at their face and at mid level it Sprays Fart Spray or at the least A Fart Spray scented Fog Blast , Now that would be a Attention Stealer indeed !

[@CobwebsandCandlesticks]

Hahahaha. The only thing holding that back is demonitization. KZbin will flag your vid for blood and dookie with corn niblets and bury your video. I liked the first Terrifier bathroom scene but I didn't really care for the sequel. At least he killed some of Pennywises popularity cause I'm tired of seeing versions of that fat headed ginger all over the damn place and even the stupid funky pop versions. I doubt funko makes a hacksaw version of the girl who got cut from the cooch to through the skull. Lame ass funko.
