Creepy Pumpkin Patch Review -New for 2024 Lemax Spooky Town 

Love this piece - maybe they could do a carnival themed one a giant circus tent with a food vendor on one side, a carnival game on the other with lion and tiger cages in the middle.

I love that they are doing multiple themes with the facades. They work great as a backdrop for a village, so variety is nice to have. I would love to see a few different carnival types. These will be much easier to power with the new extenders Lemax added to their lineup.

That is a great idea for the next facade, bringing back retired buildings in a facade.I recently contacted lemax asking to bring back retired buildings with updated led lighting, paint and audio etc. My go to would be Dr Tingle's laboratory

I haven't really purchased any new buildings since 2020, but this one is right up my alley. I love the idea of putting them up on the mantle or some floating shelves and that they don't take up as much room as traditional buildings. As much as I want some of the other buildings that came out this year, I think I'm going to hold off and just grab these two facade pieces. I'm hoping they continue with more traditional Halloween style pieces like haunted houses, cemeteries, and maybe a costume shop.

I think a graveyard one would be cool. I think they are awesome but I don’t collect them…yet. 😂 I love the blue and purple lighting together on this piece.

This is undoubtedly one of the best Lemax pieces they have released in the past few years. Great commentary and comparisons by you here, I agree about the Mad Pumpkin patch. It really seems like the facades and the candle/mist pieces are the absolute best of the best they have been coming out with in the past few years! PS: I am so excited for your cursed ruins review… it’s probably my most anticipated piece of the past few years besides the skull cave quarry, and I have a lot of comments on it! I plan to get that one + this facade this year!

Awesome video! I purchased this yesterday because of your recommendation. This building is beautiful, and very versatile. Will fit in well with my more vintage Lemax pieces. Cheers from Western Canada 🎃

I can’t wait!! I wasn’t supposed to buy any buildings this year 😅 oops haha but this is a beautiful piece. I’m so excited I just saw Michael’s has their Lemax spooky town & Halloween previews up!! Lemax shows it’s available on the 28th 😊

This is a such a cute themed facade. Love all the details packed into this.

I would definitely think that they could somehow make and bring back the pirate theme.

I do love the facades. The lighting is fantastic! Thanks for the reviews

Doug, it looks like Lemax had you in mind when they styled this, it's right up your alley for sure. And I had liked the façade idea, especially the first one, but never wanted to hang something on my wall. Once you mentioned a fireplace mantle, I heard my wallet sigh. They would be perfect on our mantle and how I never thought of that I don't know. I thought I was already done with my Lemax shopping for the year with the last of the items arriving today. But perhaps not. Thanks, great review as always. And I would sure love to see a graveyard façade, that's always my favorite theme to display. [Edit] Maybe Raven Hill counts as a graveyard. I'll have to ponder that.

They should do a Wild West theme

Thanks for this! I wasn't sure what I thought of it on the Lemax site and figured I needed to see it in person. But this helps with the lighting and all! As for new facades, a whole scene as if from a movie would be cool. Like an alien invasion a la War of the Worlds, or maybe some pod people hatching, or a generic zombie or ghost attack. Seems like a facade gives them greater ability to make a whole scene come alive.

This piece is so freaking awesome! I have been busy making some of my various village stuff. I'm getting the itch.

Definitely going to add this to the collection. The facades are some of my favorite pieces. Every year I say I’m gonna take a break from buying a new piece. Bam! Just like that, I’m reeled in. Hook, line and sinker….

Nice review. My crystal ball says facades will stick to the core themes for the foreseeable future. Personally, my village would like to have a spooky woods facade (trees, spiders, werewolf, cabin, etc) or a vampire caves facade.

They should make them connectable, so you can build a long street

I usually hate the facades, but this one has really grown on me and I like it a lot. Also the cardboard instead of styrofoam has grown on me considering how much easier it seems to take out the box.

Doug, I'm definitely going to get this one! I know you said all the facades are available, but as of this comment, I haven't seen this particular one listed or in a Michaels store as of yet. I actually haven't seen any of this year's Lemax collection at Michaels yet. I'll keep looking, though. I have a really cool setup for the first two Spooky Town Facades. I actually have them layered vertically on a wall! The Haunted Estates is on the bottom and the hill on that pieces leads right up to Raven Hill. It works out so cool! As for a new facade, I hope they do an extravagant Skeleton Haunted house! Have them strewn all around in fantastic poses. Also have some kind of animation with the lights like found on some of the Christmas Facades I own. Add a little new flair to the new one. Glad you got this piece Doug! I knew this one was right up your alley :) vgv

I love the idea of this but I wish they would do more dept56 style without the zombies and stuff. Like this would be a perfect traditional pumpkin patch thing.

I wasn't a fan of the facades at first but they actually work good for the very back row of your village

My husband and I love haunted houses, pumpkin patches and Cider. This piece is everything we love about the season and we can't wait to get one.

I do like the cardboard packing cool facade maybe make A pirate one

Is this a michaels exclusive for 2024?

Any date for this year when they be in out ? I know it around the 3 week of July, unless something changes .

I looked on Gift Spice and Eerie Emporium, can't find it on them, where can I find this one, Thx Doug

Why are the facades a better buy than say a regular haunted house or creepy hotel? If you had to choose between buying the pumpkin patch facade instead of the Mad Pumpkin Patch house.. would you?

But I can’t find this online anywhere, not kn Mixhael’s either 🤔
