Hues of Oz

Today we're taking a trip to a colorful land!
No, not Rainbow Town.
Though there is a witch there too. 
As you can see:

We're going to the merry scary old land of Oz!


It's hard to pick a favorite hue, but I'm going with Yellow.
Because it's the color of my favorite character's stuffing.


I also have a scarecrow of my own!
A living dead one to be exact!
His name is Isaac.

And here's a fitting song for him:

Now follow the yellow brick road...
To our hostess Oma Linda's here!

  2. Love the article giving a synopsis of the movie.....tee hee. How acurate. I think you have taken the hues of Oz to a very wonderful place. I too love the scarecrow and I must confess that I have never seen one like yours before. He's adorable. Thank you for joining in and making our fun even more so. I love it.
    So, my dear, hues to you, Oma Linda

  5. Oh that newspaper clipping does make The Wizard of Oz sound quite dark. I love your scarecrow, he is so much fun and dark. This is a wonderful Oz post.

  6. Oh your undead scarecrow is to die for!!! ...and because he doesn't have a brain they can't kill him(but he is already dead...my brain hurts...)
    Love that tv guide description hahahaha....sounds more like Buffy than Dorothy :D XXX

  7. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that newspaper announcement. I'm always thought that Dorothy was a bit of a delinquent--manslaughter, theft, second degree murder by water... and so on.

    And I agree with Gina, "your undead scarecrow is to die for."

    Happy (creepy) Hues of Oz!

  13. Wonderful post. I do like how there are so many horror elements in the Wizard of Oz. It's very adult for a child's tale. Love the synopsis. It should have mentioned flying monkeys for the acid-trip crowd.
