About Me

Welcome to the Unpleasant Street MySpace page. This is the place to visit to stay up-to-date on all the goings on at Unpleasant Street .
Unpleasant Street is the name of my Halloween Yard Haunt, located in Pembroke, MA. The street I live on is Pleasant St, hence the haunt name, UNpleasant Street.
I've been doing my haunt since 2001, which was the year we first moved into our house. We've come a long way since then, moving from a small display consisting of some tombstones and a plastic skeleton to a larger cemetery and now even branching out to have some animatronic skeletons.
This MySpace is here to replace the old Unpleasant Street mailing list update system. So, if you're interested in what new props I'm working on, when the site is updated, contests, etc... this is the place to be. Add us as a friend to receive bulletins and special info.
I also operate an Unpleasant Street CafePress Shop as well as a HauntForum Shop where I sell T-Shirts as well as the 2006 HauntForum compilation DVD . All profits are used to pay for the costs associated with keeping the HauntForum online haunt community operational.
