I had aboutt 35 kids and was my first halloween with blinky flashy and got lots of great compliments. A couple of kids (no idea what they were talking about), but said that my house is just like the ones they saw on TV.. So that's cool.
Mine was simplistic, 4 rainbow floods, 6 wall washers, a moving cat, a talking witch, various pumpkins, some black lights and a few strobes stuck behind the bushes for affect, but not to blind people, and a video screen with a loop of halloween things running in my front window.
I used zero sequences, I wrote a script and ran that, but vixen continued to stop the script for no reason, and or Windows script error, so i had to restart. Shouldn't be a timer on the background sequence, I wanted it to run forever, or until it .net failed.
But was fun. Wireless is a hoot, running nothing but Cat5E is interesting and kind of nice. My new 12v Power supplies had no temperature to speak of. I've now got a visual on how the floods and wall washers work on my home.
Very cool, interesting what just a few lights and affects can do to a house.
The Ren48LSD and Ren-W ran superbly!

I need bigger eves, cant mix colors without seeing the leds and that's kind of annoying. So I'll have to figure out a way to get rid of the tubes and flat weather proof the wall washers or something to get them hidden and out further.
Cool stuff.
